Recovering Lost Photos

Friday, March 28th, 2008

Wendy shot me an email that I thought was worth posting.

I made a wonderful discovery yesterday. I accidentally deleted a photo on my camera that I needed for work. Last night I downloaded a program called recuva that was able to look at the card, find the photo and retrieve it. I only wish I had downloaded that program a long time ago…. I thought it might be a program you’d like to look at. It’s free. You can find it at www.recuva.com.
Cheers! Wendy

Thanks, Wendy!!!

blogger / blogspot’s hidden rss feed…

Wednesday, June 20th, 2007

OK — maybe it’s not hidden, but when I was trying to add http://danledford.blogspot.com to my personalized Google page by selecting, “Add by URL”, the system said, “Page not found.”

This made no sense to me since I was able to load Dan’s other page: http://gluttonyisasin.blogspot.com. I looked all over both pages and saw no information about where the rss link might be. I thought, “How do I find the RSS feed on a blogspot page?”

So I guessed. It’s here: http://danledford.blogspot.com/rss.xml. It’s probably the same place for all blogspot pages. Why they don’t place an RSS link on the page is a mystery only Google knows.

Yahoo’s Unlimited Email Storage…

Monday, June 11th, 2007

Last month I read that Yahoo! was going to give users unlimited email storage. This pleased me as I am currently using about a third of my Gmail account (I delete next-to-nothing) and my usage is growing faster than Gmail’s automatic increase.

Since reading that, when I log into my Yahoo account, I’ve seen the bar-graph at 6%. Today, I looked and it was 30%. That caught my attention and made be stop what I was doing to ponder how I managed to receive that much email overnight. But as I gazed upon the 30% bar-graph, I saw a wire coming from it to a Wile E. Coyote kind of blasting plunger. Within a few moments a fine looking animated man came upon the scene and pressed the plunger, eliminating the bar-graph. Mousing-over it revealed the words, “You now have unlimited storage.”

Woo-hoo!!! Thanks, Yahoo!
