I would never want there to be a day when I didn't learn something new. I thrive off new ideas. New blog posts. New directions. And right now, it's everything new in Drupal.

I was somewhat to disappointed to go on SnagIt's download page and find out the application was not supported for Mac OS X. However, I didn't have to go far to find Jing, created by the same company that brought you SnagIt, Techsmith.

Opening doors to opinions and perceptions is the beautiful idea behind blogs. Instead of receiving information from a niche number of journalists, readers have access to millions of ideas from around the world. Blog Action Day supports just that, but on one issue. This year...

The first commercial starring Bill Gates, Jerry Seinfeld and the $10 million endorsement from Microsoft came out yesterday.
