From the how-to-make-the-browser-stop-barking-at-me department: In Mozilla Firebird, go to the URL bar and type about:config and hit Enter. Sort the Preferences by name by clicking on the “Preference Name” header. Find accessibility.typeaheadfind.enablesound and double click on it. Type false in the box. Ah…that’s better.
How to get a MySQL database to work with Microsoft Access: download MyODBC, install it, and create a new ODBC connection. Open Access, and Link the tables. Sweet. I found this because I’m researching some last minute development for my senior project. I can only imagine the fun this would be with my MySQL account at PlugSocket.
Speaking of the senior project, one of the programmers on our team asked me about MovableType today. Very cool. Vishal, let me know when you get a blog set up. 
A recent conversation (comment-sation? blog-ersation?) with Jai Brinkofski inspired me to go looking for ways to clean up/validate/generally make the markup in comments Not Suck™. Apparently, this has been a bit of a buzz lately. Oh, and I absolutely must add anchor tags so people can link to individual comments. More soon.
I found an alternative to Windows’ Telnet today. It’s called PuTTY. It doesn’t have a translucent background, but it’ll do. I’m using it to log into a Linux box at NJIT. It’s kinda depressing having left Linux a while ago only to come back and realize what I’ve forgotten.
What you don’t go to my blog anymore? Just for that, I’m going to point out that it is the year 2003… And what, my name gets no link? Well then… Um… I still come here 25 times a day…

Whoops. Thanks. You’d think that with the dates right on top of each other that I’d figure that out faster. Hmmm…I think I’ll change the title entirely now.
About the link: done and done. Enjoy.
