02.04.1999 - GnomeREPORT
And it seems that some of you are still confused. Lockergnome IS my full-time job. I'm probably going to have to say this again fourteen times before the year is out. When you hear me talking about purchasing items (scanners, laptops, etc.), understand that this is a business. If I don't have the tools, I can't get the job done. On the same token, this is NOT a multi-million dollar job. So when you hear me saying that I'm not making a lot of money, I'm not lying and I'm not trying to drum up pity. The money that I do make is usually reinvested into Lockergnome and/or spent on business-related expenses. I'm just trying to set the record straight here. At this time, it's just me working on these newsletters. And yes, I answer my own e-mail. It ain't easy, and I'm NOT complaining. I'm EXPLAINING. I don't even have to do that, but I'd rather be straightforward and honest with you; I appreciate your continued support... even if you're under 1 month old! GnomePROGRAM BIGpage 1.51 [382k] W9x/NT FREE
http://www.spidersoft.com/bigpage/bigpage151.exe I don't feel at home unless I've got a remote control in my hand. Even when I'm in the shower, I take my 'mote with me. Okay, perhaps I'm stretching the truth here, but I think you get the picture. Wouldn't it be nifty to surf the Internet on the PC with a remote control? When you're using BIGpage, your favorite sites are merely a click away. The program looks (and acts) like a remote control on your screen. You can configure the preset categories to your liking, too. Channel surfing online--whoopee! GnomeSYSTEM Utility to Completely Remove Remaining Office 97 Files http://support.microsoft.com/support/kb/articles/q176/8/23.asp "The Office 97 File and Registry Eraser Utility removes most of the files and Windows registry settings that remain on the computer after you remove Microsoft Office 97. This utility is designed to be run after you run the Setup program for Office 97 and click Remove All to remove Office." I thought "uninstall" meant "uninstall"? GnomeCANDY HELP! Beatles Lyrics v1.0 [80k] W9x/NT FREE
http://mitglied.tripod.de/~PhillipPerkmann/Beatles.zip Help, I need somebody. Help, not just anybody. Won't you... be my neighbor? Oops, sorry. I should have looked up the lyrics to this (and every other) Beatles song. Instead of searching the Internet for the correct verbiage, why not just download this database? It's in Windows HLP file format, so anybody should be able to read it. Anything you can normally do with a HLP file, you can do with this lyrics database; search for certain song titles, copy text to the clipboard, etc.. It's a Magical Mystery file! GnomeFAVORITE
Internet Addiction Tests http://netaddiction.com/resources/iaindex.htm When I first heard about "Internet Addiction", I laughed. Unfortunately, this is no laughing matter. For a while, I was worried about my own addiction. Then I realized: this is my full-time job. If I'm not online, I'm not working. And believe me, when you "have to" work with computers all day, the last thing you want to do is spend extra time with them when you're not working. If you think you (or someone you know) might be addicted, take one of these tests to find out. Your health is important. GnomeDESKTOP THEME: Valentine Dreams [512k]
http://westwood.fortunecity.com/mcqueen/355/valentine_dreams.exe The big "V" day is right around the corner... and I hope that if you don't have love in your heart, you find it (or it finds you) soon. And if you find love over the Internet, more power to ya. Let me warn you, though... Internet relationships are VERY different than "real life" ones. And yes, I can put my money where my mouth is--I've had a couple of Internet romances myself. They're fun (especially for those of us who like to write), but remember that people usually act differently in person. GnomeTIP A Lockergnomie (Frank from the Netherlands) told me about a great way to extend Internet Explorer's autosearch functionality. Normally, when you type a single keyword on the Address line in IE and hit enter, it'll search for the .com, .edu, then .org registrations until it finds a match. Well, you can edit and add to that list! You'll need to dive into the registry, so this is for advanced users ONLY: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE > SOFTWARE > Microsoft > Internet Explorer > Main > UrlTemplate. From there, you can rearrange the numbers to your liking as well as add different domain hierarchies. I personally added the .net extension to my list, but .co.uk, .co.nz, .com.au, or even .nl would work, too. |
