It would seem that Win2k, the current OS responsible for this content being delivered to you faithful readers is having a minor glitch which causes everything to be double spaced. This
isn’t new, I remember having the same problem a few years ago when last this OS was in use by dear me.

On another note, school is going relatively well. I feel like I’m being hit with work from all angles, and I find it difficult to accomodate it all. I’m trying my best however, and I’ve set
myself in a daily routine of work t’ill 7, play t’ill 10, sleep t’ill morning type thing. So far, so good.

What else. Well, if you want my nomination of “Best Freeware of the Year” award, go check out TightVCN. It’s a solution that lets you remotely control other PCs. My “secondary” PC, has but two cables running out: a power cable, and the RJ-45 ethernet cable. Instead of having to switch monitor cabling, or having the blindness-inducing matter of 2 monitors, I can simply access it
through TightVCN on my main computer.

That said, I also edited my router settings to allow me to access my computer from the internet, as to write emails, go to sites without it being registered on the main computer (think cheap
proxy server, only not). However, thought TightVCN is undoubtedly the best proggie ever for personal control, my other nomination goes to SCWebcam3, a little golden nugget that allows you to automatically upload piccies of your desktop and from your webcam to any folder, FTP server, or as its own HTTP server. This is perfect to show the rest of the world your wonderful space.

Of course I could also nominate Firebird and the like, but unlike the above, already garner enough attention as is.
