Maps

Check out this site, you can make a map of all of the states or countries you have visited. I've got a ways to go before I see all of the ones that I want to see. Here is mine:

Announcement

Coming soon to Now on a monitor in front of you... www.willrodes.com and probably in the not too distant future a new Wordpress look (for those who can dig it).

Photos

All I can say about this past Sunday is that God never ceases to amaze me in what he can do. I put some photos of it up on flickr here, so check them out. If you want more great photos check out Brian's or Paul's. I've got about 450 more that I will sort through and post the good ones soon.

More Gmail updates

Gmail now has the ability to save your chat history in what I guess would be called a "Chat box." Soon you will be able to chat directly in Gmail.

New photos

I posted a couple of photos from Newspring's new building on my flickr so check 'em out.

Useful programs

Yesterday I began to undertake the time wasting process of trying to get rid of duplicate files and all around condense my multiple copies of backups on my external drive. It actually wasn't as painful and cumbersome as I had thought it would be due to two programs. SpaceMonger- via Ken is a GREAT visual file explorer- it displays the space taken by files/folders visually as blocks. It even showed me archived files that wouldn't show up in MS explorer even when 'Show hidden folders' was turned on. Then ViceVersa Free is a great program that allows you to compare folders and synchronize files, just make sure you read the Help file before starting. And yes, I am sure that there is a Linux program or script that does all of this.

GoLive

Anybody ever use Adobe GoLive? It seems like a really great program I just started messing around with it and it seems like it has some great features like prebuilt CSS objects and site diagrams. I have been working with Dreamweaver for work and have been not been very pleased with its lack luster usability, often I find it is easier in Dreamweaver to just edit the HTML rather than try to use the GUI. Anybody have experience with both? Thoughts/experiences welcome.
