Goferboy is moving to a new host provider. After years of hosting my own domain in my basement as a way to learn IIS, SQL Server, Exchange and all that jive, I've come to the conclusion I just don't have the time to properly maintain the server. Spam is getting out of control and domain emails are going unread. So time to move the domain to a real host provider that had the tools and expertise to

Just got done praising my geek values when I decided it was time to install Vista on a test box. So I take the new shiny DVD case and realize it's "different". Hmmm, that's ok, I'm a geek, I shall figure this out in less then.....hmmmmm. Well that's interesting, there is a pull tab on the side that I ripped off but DVD case doesn't open. There is another tape on top but as I rip that off that

Kludge spot has a good list started here. My favorites: You are completely free of tan lines. When someone says 'organized sports' you think 'LAN party' When you must converse with others, you speak a cryptic language of acronyms decipherable only by another geek. You have a gigantic box of spare cables that you never use. You could never be convinced to part with it. You understand why '42' and

I while back I wrote about the cool trailer for the movie Missing Pages. Just received the following update... Thanks for the post on my short movie in your blog. I just wanted to let you know it's now all there and yes, Nurse Betty makes her appearance. We've found non-theatrical distribution for Missing Pages worldwide - basically for airplanes, etc. and it should be appearing on the friendly

THE HOST This appears to be a great horror flick from South Korea with a limited US release. I can't find it showing anywhere in Cincinnati...go figure. But this appears to be your general disfunctional family meets Shawn of the dead (minus the zombies) meets Kung Fu Hustle (with the Fu). Guess I will keep busy with the game.

If you haven't paid attention to Google's offerings lately, you really have been missing out. One day I hope to be able to praise Microsoft Visio and Live's efforts, but right now it's all about Google. And for good reason, just look at what they are offering now. My Google Portal is even sweeter with the additions of themes. No longer do I need to worry about transferring bookmarks or crucial

What's with the country voting for the worst you ask? Why are these guys encouraging it? In a nutshell, AI is a scripted reality TV show. They purposely bring in folks who can't sing because after all, Americans bask in other people's embarrassments. So VFTW figures this isn't really a talent show, rather it's a well oiled TV reality show to bring in ratings. So if AI decides to bring in folks

NM talked about this last year, and I've been captivated ever since, waiting for the actual movie to release. Well, it appears they still are looking for distribution rights for this unique movie, so the wait is on. But they are releasing additional segments in Itunes. So go there and subscribe to Missing Pages, it's free! Currently the Trailer and the first two segments are available. Watch

I guess I'm about a year behind this news, but recently introduced to a new time waster. Thanks Kramer! What is Line Rider? It's a pretty cool physics engine project proposed by a student that has taken off. Here's a better blurb. Line Rider was originally created by Boštjan Cadež, a Slovenian university student, in September of 2006. It almost immediately gathered a cult following and became

... according to this article. However, I think they need to re-evaluate point #10. Pro-gamers are Jocks? Obviously they never looked at my clan. I don't recommend you view the member section (Sick Ones) or the dedication to Janet Reno if you have a weak stomach. Thanks to oE|Dale Gribble for the link

Can't believe I've been too busy to blog. But it happens sometimes. But real quick, something I heard on NPR today. Microsoft is proving they do have a sense of humor with Ms. Dewey If you don't have flash installed, here is screeny of the site. Here's a few queries that seemed to get a funny rise out of her: "cars," "Bill Gates", "GOP", "Linux", "Windows", "Porn", "Darth Vader", "nerd", "test

Thanks to oE|Qjet for weeding through all the entries and picking his favorite three. If your computer has some strength and you don't mind things getting a little abstract, then this stuff is for you.

You are Germany! Du bist Deutschland! I remember reading somewhere that Germany was going to produce some commercials to help lift up the spirits of the German population from the constant high un-employment reminders and general sour mood. Appears that someone took one ad and made a parody out of it. I found this hilarious when I only understood 5% of it as I'm an easy sucker for making fun

For those new to the show, no, the Cylons have not learn how to play the bagpipes as weapon....even those it does make a good one. And now the second best scene has been made available: BSG takes on 4 base ships

For those waiting on pins and needles, it appears that Blogger has implemented a decent solution. The only problem is, you can only test it out in their Beta version. Which means you have to create a new account, pick a new template and only allowed to post to their blogspot host. But for the purpose of testing, you can see that the final output is decent. Along with adding label support, the

Performing a jump drive into the atmosphere, the ground units looking up seeing the huge fat bird dropping out of the sky like a rock, launching the vipers in atmosphere, and then jumping again before hitting the group. Shazam! Between Tigh's wife, Starbuck and the wall to wall action, I've watched it twice now and still want to watch it again. Matter fact, this will never leave my Tivo. And

There where many reasons sited why Youtube.com was beating out Google's Video hosting attempt. One reason I thought had merit was "Big Money". Once there were deep pockets, expect the lawsuits to start or a great purging of the questionable content. Appears this is now true as reported at Broadband that YouTube begins copyrighted purge. Egad, could Mark Cuban have been right? This stinks at sooo

I had pretty much resigned to and accepted the fate of www.woxy.com. It was time to move on and find some other way to get my Indie fix. So I had an instant heart attack when I heard that WOXY was coming back. This had better not be a joke, I don't think I could handle it. But checking out www.woxy.com main page and boards it appears to be true!! WOXY.com lives... Could it be true? Does
