So it turns out December was my best month yet on this site trafficwise (which isn’t saying much). I have made minimal to no effort to assist this website in getting decent rankings in search engines, aside from doing the usual set-up within WordPress. During the summer months, I did get a lot of traffic from my pages on the Keter Bellevue Shed. I would have hoped that was the case, as… Read More »People just love the unusual suggested searches
I figured I would also try posting from within the android browser to see. How that works. The above is as far as I got in the browser and now I’m back to the android app to edit and add the rest. The browser was painfully slow. I’m not sure if it is trying to spellcheck as I went along or what, but it was worse than even using firefox… Read More »Working on posting here from Android
I’ve been playing around with running Android on my Touch Pro 2 and while I usually stick with a modified Rom in Windows Mobile, I decided I would see if there is a good blogging app for android. It turns out there is a wordpress app which is what I’m using now. Unfortunately, Android is far from a finished product for the Touch Pro 2. I’m amazed that people were… Read More »Using my microsoft phone to run Android?
I’m an internet junkee. I admit it. That’s the first step, right? Anyway – today I’ve been missing my ability to access google from my cell phone. It’s weird that I am still able to get my email through the exchange server, but I can’t access any google web pages, including gmail, google.com, and their news. I couldn’t find much information about this online. I for sure wasn’t able to… Read More »Sprint 3G network not letting me access some major sites
I had typed up my summary of my experience with the annoying AV Security Suite. So far there haven’t been any more problems but that is one heck of an annoying piece of crap. Since I typed up that blog post, I’ve had a few people coming to my site looking for information on how to sue the company. I wish I had more of an answer on how to… Read More »Spam installed on my computer
After around 7:30am today I stopped getting emails on my touch pro 2. I’ve had this happen before and usually I just get a message in Activesync saying that some settings were updated on the server and I need to OK for it to resynch and I may loses changes since the last time I synched (sunk?) my phone. This time I had no such luck. I went into activesync… Read More »Unable to get activesync working on my TP2
It was really weird. One day everything is working totally fine on my phone and then the next day whenever we made outgoing calls, the caller ID on the receiving person’s phone would show as a private caller. While most people would find this as just a minor nuisance, this was a bigger problem for Mrs. F as she works from home and when she makes business calls, people need… Read More »ATT Customer Support Experience
Mrs. F downloaded a virus while looking up information on baby crib safety – imagine that of all topics to use to add malware to a website. If their assumption is that people researching baby cribs are not as tech saavy, I suppose they are correct in this case as Mrs. F started to yell for my help. At least she is smart enough to recognize the pop-up saying that… Read More »Removing malware experience
I am a fan of Netflix and have always thought the instant download option is very cool. It works great when I’m watching a movie by myself (for which I rarely have time). The instant download doesn’t work well when wanting to watch a movie with other people. It’s just not the same looking at either a laptop screen or computer monitor instead of a television. I figured there must be… Read More »Getting my S-video output working
So, my AT&T Uverse phone service just went out. It’s been on the fritz all day, initially incoming calls still worked, but not outgoing. I’d have no dial town for a few seconds, then get a dial tone. I’d then make a call only to get a fast busy signal. Now, I get incoming calls for about 5 seconds before getting disconnected. Not good. So, I call customer support which… Read More »Phones out
