I recently purchased a Motorola DROID ‘phone’ and I’ve been trying to get some updates from Nuance for some time now, on its initial offering of Dragon NaturallySpeaking, for the iPhone; not much yet.

Maybe the fact I don’t have an iPhone is a hindrance. I asked to be included with the beta testing team, but never got the invite.

But is all this voice recognition a lost effort on the iPhone?

For all you advanced IT Administrator/Consultant guru’s out there, your going to love this little gem.

How many times have you found yourself having to manually type in a path to a file? A lot – I know- been there and felt that.

CopyPath is a shell extension that copies the full path names of selected files in Windows Explorer.

I was in a discussion the other day with some friends and it was so interesting that it deserves to be written down and shared.

I’m not disgusted with Google and I don’t totally distrust them, but they do control or have access to a lot of information. I mean a lot of information. And when your talking about a company that deals with a lot of information, you really need to ask yourself, ‘what are they doing with it?’ or ‘what can they do with it?’

It’s a troubling thought.

My primary browser is NOT Chrome, but I keep it loaded for testing and as an option; you should always have options.

But Chrome is not one to be dismissed it’s got some power and speed. And while the browser doesn’t have all the bells and whistles of… say Firefox; it hasn’t crashed on me yet. And from that there are some things I like about the speedy browser.

So these are just some things I like about Chrome and as the wheel turns and Chrome actively supports plug-ins, I might be swayed a bit more easily.

Mozilla Firefox 3.5 has been released and I have to admit that I’m really enjoying the competition between the two brothers. Google has really set the roof on fire with this competition between Firefox and Chrome.

The updates from Mozilla are coming out faster, chrome is already on version 3 of their flagship browser. The battle between Mozilla and Google over who has the best browser is really kicking in some pure competitive spirit that we haven’t seen in a long time.

Ever since chrome has come out onto the market it has really put a fire under the competition. Internet Explorer is still underdeveloped and so outclassed in comparison to the open-source efforts presented by Mozilla and Google; it’s extremely funny.
