Got a question about technology? Ask it here. Discussion of hardware, software, TiVos, multi-region DVDs, Windows, Macs, LINUX, hand-helds, iPods, anything tech related. Better than any helpdesk!
Thanks, amych. Kewl.
So no one's done customisation for a Sharepoint application? I am convinced you can write custom .NET code that pulls content from it (as opposed to the .NET portlets that come in the box), but it's damned hard googling because .NET pulls up everything with "net".
eta: Nah, I'm convinced I'm right. I'm just not sure how to sell my point at work.
I never got my invite, either. Hmmm.
Ok, now I has Wave.
Thanks!
Cool! Good to know that that batch has gone out now. I don't think there's any rhyme or reason to how long it takes for invites to go out -- it seems to be anywhere from a few days to several weeks, but entirely up to the whim of the googods.
Random question: How often do you reboot your computer (if it's one you leave on all the time)?
Assuming I'm not updating something, I generally leave my MacBook Pro on for 20-30 days between reboots.
I will leave them on forever unless they crash. My Vista box reboots itself once a week or so. My Mac seems to have an update that requires a reboot every couple weeks, but I put it off for an extra couple weeks. The Ubuntu box stays untouched.

I rarely have to reboot my MacBook for some crash or something - so it's mostly for updates. Even so, I can't remember ever having an uptime more than 30 days. I guess they do have a lot of updates....
Like ita, I leave my laptop (oooold iBook G4) on forever unless it crashes.
I left my work computer on for about two years, except for occasional rebooting due to updates because I had a Treo, and the computer needed to be on for me to get mail. Now, I leave it on because it's craptastic and takes so long to come back to itself that I don't bother to shut it down. I used to shut it down every night.
I'm supposed to get a new one. Actually, it's already here, but the university IT people haven't put the virus protection on it, so my guy can't install it. Grrrr.
I try not to have a throw-away mentality, but I think after running the cleaning cycle multiple times, replacing the ink cartridges, cleaning the printer head, soaking the printer head and resetting to the default settings, I should have a printer that prints yellow and magenta if it ever was going to again. Cleaning seemed to help for a while, but not this time. The printer is about 5 years old. Anyone have an HP Photosmart Plus all-in-one? It seems to be the best combination of reviews and cost that I can, theoretically, buy tomorrow.
