BumpTop

Download BumpTop.

This amazing Stylus Interaction program (still in development) makes your desktop actually function like, well, a desktop. It works especially well for Tablets and Touch screen computers, but will work for normal computers as well.

There is a free version, but for full functionality you will need to buy it for $30. Currently, its nothing more than a fun desktop toy, but with updates, I'm sure it will grow into a powerful utility.

Runescape Private Server

2009-04-06T08:58:00.000-07:00

Well, I was looking for a runescape private server for fun and came across Jag3x at www.rspserver.com. It gives you free membership and increased skill rates. In about 15-20 minutes I got 70 combat and 99 prayer.

Try it. xD

ACT Tips

2009-04-05T06:19:00.001-07:00

Well, I took the ACT for the 2nd time yesterday and it felt really good. (My first one was a 30) Anyways, I just wanted to share some of the tips that I learned from myself and others for ACT Testing.

(No particular order)
1. Practice (Take the ACT practice tests at www.actstudent.org)
2. Drink lots of water during your break. Don't get dehydrated.
3. Brink extra pencils
4. Don't worry too much. ;)
5. Go to bed early.
6. Pray and ask God to help you do your best.
7. Get to the testing station at least 15 minutes early.
8. Eat breakfast!

P.S. Mr. B! Thank you sooo much! All the stuff that you taught us (and we thought we'd never use) was pretty much ALL on the test. I think I did a lot better on the math test this time. xD

I fail.

300x Cabal Private Server - EliteCabal.com

2009-03-30T07:27:00.000-07:00

Cabal Online never really appealed to me. Too much grinding, too many cash n00bs. That's when I found Elite Cabal. A 300x private Cabal Server. In 15 minutes of casual game play, I got to a skill rank that is normally days or weeks of work.

I'm really enjoying, but wondering how long this current game experimenting "phase" will last.

Cross Fire FPS (Update)

2009-03-30T07:19:00.000-07:00

So, I just downloaded and installed Cross Fire from Subagames and am thoroughly enjoying it. The graphics are decent, I can play it on maximum settings with no lag.

I was pleasantly surprised when I found out that the cash shop did not sell "god-Mode" weapons, just fun little extras (some are quite useful) for power players. Lets hope it stays that way.

Cross Fire FPS

2009-03-30T03:33:00.000-07:00

Boredom comes easily. After playing Grand Chase and Guild Wars for a while, I think I'm ready for an FPS break. I am currently downloading Cross Fire, which is completely free to play. I can't tell if it will stay that way, but I sure hope so. I've played Combat Arms and America's Army, but they both have their flaws. (Over-powered cash users in CA, and no respawn if you die in AA).

Being a casual FPS gamer, I don't hope to become competitive, just to have fun.

Wish me luck.

Beware of the April 1st Windows Worm - Conficker - $250,00 reward

Messing with Blogger

2009-03-29T17:14:00.000-07:00

Blogger.com. What else can I say? It's great. As soon as I figure everything out, I'll start sharing my perspective on various news. I'm currently following Windows 7 and will share my thoughts on it soon.

Mysterious Musings

2009-03-29T15:57:00.000-07:00

My mysterious musings finally have a place to call their own. After boring my non-geek friends to tears for months, I have finally decided to create a blog. Maybe someone out on the "internetz" will actually enjoy my cyber-2-cents.
