I’ve been using the Evoluent Vertical Mouse for a month or so at both work and home. I have to say, it has definitely helped the pain in my arm when using my computer. I’m glad I picked it up. A few things about it I don’t like:
1. The precision is not [...]
I found this great company called Green Disk that will recycle my technology trash. Unfortunately, their site is a bit klunky. When trying to place an order, I received the following error:
Credit Card Authorization Failed. The following field(s) are invalid: (totalGrand)
For some reason, the items I had ordered did not save to [...]
Recently, I was trying to connect to a web service with the Spring Framework JaxRpcPortProxyFactoryBean. The web service and client code were generated with the weblogic servicegen and clientgen ant tasks respectively.
I found this example on the dev2dev site:

It’s great if your hosting provider doesn’t have web access to your email account, or as in my case, your employer has blocked access to your normal webmail URL. You can configure it to have [...]
Under no circumstances should you ever use MICFO for web hosting. I have now moved back to my old hosting service after less than 24 hours with MICFO. So far on the first day, I have barely been able to connect to my site. They claim it was a denial of service attack, and that [...]
I just started using this great site called Flickr. I think I might use it instead of hosting all of my pictures myself. I like it so much, I may even pay for the professional account.
