Finally… Windows live writer has the feature I’ve been waiting for since I started this blog. It only came out last month (this post is actually going to be a test of so fingers crossed it works). It’s a plugin that allows me to add custom fields to a post when I’m publishing it. You [...]

I came across this neat little trick that allows you to utilize an infinite number of Gmail addresses. Why would you want to do this you may ask? Well, you pretty much have to use your email address to sign up to anything online, and sometimes you might start getting ads and spam for no reason, tracking down who sent it or how your email address got out can be a pain, so you end up just having to bear it.

My first experience with Sonic was Sonic the Hedgehog [...]

Hi, my nick is Leimrod and I’m a gamer. There I said it. I’ve been wanting to blog about gaming and my love of it for a while now (probably why this blog has gone so long without an update) but I haven’t due to the stereotype that comes along with it. You know, the [...]

With a capital “A”. Seriously, since Web 2.0 started to really roll out and more and more sites started to adopt its philosophy I’ve noticed a complete paradigm shift in what the Internet means to me. I literally love the internet now whereas maybe 2 years ago I was becoming increasingly disillusioned as to its [...]
