Computer Geek!

For those of you not yet aware, Internet Explorer 7 is now available for download (the actual release not the beta). Get it here.

I just realized how much of a computer geek I am!! I just received an email from one of my co-workers and she said we have Visual Studio 2005 and the MSDN Library ready and waiting for us to install, unfortunately only after a version release, which isn't until the middle of November. I'm excited and can't wait to click the install button! Why!? *sigh* I'm the only one in my group who's excited...

Something worthy for you from Steve Wozniak (Apple co-founder)...

My advice has to do with what you do when you find yourself sitting there with ideas in your head and a desire to build them. But you're young. You have no money. Those ideas are what drive you, they're all you think about. But there's a big difference between just thinking about inventing something and doing it. So how do you do it? How do you actually set about changing the world?

· Believe in yourself. Don't waver.

· A revolutionary new product won't be understandable to most people. Don't let these people bring you down. They only know what they're exposed to. It's a type of prejudice against the spirit of invention. Trust your intuition, that way lies happiness.

· See things in "grey scale".

· Don't follow the crowd. Do a factual study. Don't waste time supporting a bad idea. Keep your ego out of the equation.

· Work alone.

· Don't work in a corporate environment where products are designed by committee.
