Are you a recruiter, search firm, or work in a technology company's HR department?Are you planning on hiring any technology professionals in the near future? Well, I came across a great article on a recruiting blog detailing how to post a "compelling" job ad to attract the right candidates to fill your opening. The article is actually pretty straight-forward and gives 7 key points to follow.

Microsoft recently launched a blog all about their new OS, Windows 7. I've read through a few of the posts, and although lengthy, they appear to be chock full of some good intel (no pun intended) from the bright minds over at Redmond and insight into what's cookin' in their next OS. One of their posts is on boot performance, which I know everyone, even the casual Windows user, has griped about at

The fine folks over at DigitalBurn.com reported that AT&T beat Verizon to the punch with the latest OS release, version 4.5, up from version 4.3 (at least that's what I'm still stuck on). Hey Verizon! When are you going to release OS4.5 so I can get my HTML email on, hmm?Quote from DB:RIM’s BlackBerry OS update 4.5 is set to feature improved web browsing, an enhanced email and music player user

Anyone who knows me in real life, knows that I HATE CABLES. Not good for a tech dude whose life is pretty much surrounded by 'em, 24/7. So, any gadget that comes out that helps make one less cable possible, is a gadget I gotta have in my book.

It looks like Google's finally joined the browser wars and introduced its own, the Chrome browser. Read about it on Google's official blog. Just released a couple days ago, web journalists the world over immediately jumped on it only to post their first thoughts just hours later. So far, it seems a mixed bag with a lot of praise for how fast it is and how quickly it loads pages but with rendering

It's been rumoured around the web about a touchscreen Blackberry being released here in the States. It looks like Verizon will be the carrier of choice, and the name? Well, it's been changed back and forth so many times, it wouldn't surprise me if it happened at the last second before launch...but it looks like it'll be called the Blackberry 9530 Storm.

One of the many things I do to help my customers get the most of out of their new computers is to remove all the bloatware that comes pre-installed (if it's a laptop) and optimize Windows Vista. In my quest to always help the little guy get a leg up and make Vista faster for themselves, I wanted to share a great resource for those that want to get their hands dirty with Windows Services: Speedy

After years of using a regular phone to try and keep up with my life, I've finally cracked down and bought a smartphone: the Blackberry Curve 8330 from Verizon. Why the Blackberry you ask? Well, it just plain kicks butt, and does so at a bargain price compared to the more expensive Windows Mobile-based phones like the Samsung SCH-i760 I wanted. With all the typical PIM apps like Calendar, Tasks,

I finally broke down after all these years of not having a laptop, and bought one at Circuit City last month. I deliberated for probably 3-4 weeks looking for the best choice on a new lappy; I looked at Dell's, HP's, Acer's, Gateway's, even a MAC (shudders). After looking at the mass numbers of my client's who own DELL's and had problems with them, I nixed that brand altogether. MAC's, although

I've recently been hitting the social networking scene, only I've taken a different path than most of my peers who are my age and younger. Instead of the MySpace addicts and FaceBook fiends, I hopped onboard LinkedIn.com, a professional networking site, to create an account and accept my initial invitation from a friend of mine who I do business with online.

Happy New Year to everyone! May this year, 2008, be bigger and brighter than ever. 2007 went by so fast and a great deal has happened in just this short year alone. A lot is going on in the technology community including ever more complex gadgets and hardware consolidating features into ever smaller packages. That is going to be the theme for this year: miniturization. Whether it be the consumer,

Well, it's been several months now since my last update. The trip to Colorado was a blast and very memorable. I have tons of pictures I have yet to take to get developed, still sitting on my computer. Unfortunately, a lot of other things have taken priority over this blog, and I've been doing a lot of time management lately. I've been enrolled in classes at a local college since August and

That's what most of Texas can feel like, but for now I'm in Dalhart, TX. With a population of only 7,300 people, there isn't much to see and do and this town merely acted as a pass-through point for us to just fill up on gas and make sure we're on the right path: north on Highway 87. I did give the Verizon aircard another test, but wasn't surprised when I found I was still on roaming dialup

I've finally made it to the 21st century and arrived at a local McDonalds here in Plainview, TX which just happens to serve free wireless internet. I'm no longer handicapped with sub-dialup speeds, but alas it is but for a moment as I will be jumping back on the road heading up to Amarillo next. Only another 110 miles to go, and maybe this Verizon card will get better coverage.Again, no need for

Well, it looks like I'm still stuck on sub-dialup speeds on this verizon wireless aircard, here in Lubbock, TX. I'm attempting a speedtest on speakeasy.net again, hoping this time it'll complete before timing out. At least I can use notepad until I get into the next city with Verizon broadband access towers. We'll be approaching the halfway point on our trip pretty soon and it looks like we're

We've made it to San Marcos from San Antonio in roughly 3 hours...not bad, but we're still behind schedule if we're to arrive between 5-7pm tonight. Nothing much to blog about here, just a bunch of cars and restaurants and a university and that's about it. No need for pictures...but that should change soon as the scenery gets a bit more

While smaller than a typical mobile phone, the new device features a display which extends up to 5-inches and may simply be stored away after use by folding it, thanks to the flexibility of the polymer based display material.

Thanks to Shiny Shiny for the news - They may not look as amazing as the title ensues, but this creation is certainly worth mentioning. A company called Ascadia has created "the worlds first" colored bubbles, called Zubbles. How a company could make something as old as it is fun, entertaining again is quite a feat. These colorful creations are due to come out this spring to a toy store near you!

Nothing impresses me more than to see the advances in robotics, especially the humanoid-kind. The lucky few who attended this year's CES got to see a glimpse of the future by seeing a running robot in action. This robot, called ASIMO for Advanced Step in Innovative Mobility, was designed by Honda. That's right, the same folks who make cars, trucks, and motorcycles for the masses have all along

Only to spice things up even more, the folks over at LG are cooking up a hybrid player that plays both Blu-ray and HD DVD discs. Unfortunately, you can expect about 0.01% of the population to actually purchase just such a player due to the fact that the heated battle between both formats is still going on and the average consumer is left in the middle still choosing the older DVD standard for

Edwin over at Coolest-Gadgetes.com writes about the latest mobile gadget to hit camera-phone enthusiasts: The Zoom Telescope. Here's a blurb:The Zoom Telescope is capable of offering up to 6x zoom, although it wasn’t stated whether it is optical or digital. Currently compatible with either selected Sony Ericsson or Nokia cellphones, all you need to do is strap the Zoom Telescope to your handset,

Among those hapless souls waiting in line at one of many department stores nationwide on the eve of Black Friday, I found myself camping out alongside my cousin and uncle in front of a Fry's Electronics store in Houston, TX. This story I shall tell in a later blog post. For now however, I will fast forward to Best Buy ten hours later among the hourdes of senseless shoppers. While my uncle was

I've been using Internet Explorer 7 at work consistently now for about a month and have grown accustomed to it. Some of the features I enjoy are the easy tab generation, the ease of adding favorites (showing the whole tree-view of your favorites), the somewhat streamlined interface, and the ability to view all of your tabbed windows in one single window. The obvious benefit to using IE over

I was reading an article about a Linux-based operating system coded for the upcoming Playstation 3 game console (already?!) and found mentioned in the comments of the article a PVR/Media Center package called MythTV. At version 0.20 they've come a long way at developing a wonderful mix of form and functionality in this grassroots project. This is not meant for your typical novice Windows Media

I have been using the beta for quite some time now, but have primarily used Firefox due to faster loading times on the browser itself and webpages. I work for a local WISP in an environment that's fast paced. I get a hundred or more calls on my cell every day from contractors to CEO's asking for information but not willing to wait a long time for it. That means I have to pull up numerous web

Gaming and the Mobile LifestyleDate: 05/13/2004In today’s society more and more of us rely heavily on devices to get us through each waking moment; from alarm clocks that wake us up to PDA’s reminding us of those important daily tasks. The ‘double mocha in the veins’ segment of the population generally want these devices to keep their lives in sync. That’s where the glut of gadgets comes in, but

Next month Verizon Wireless plans to compete with the rest of the mobile music foray by delivering their own helping of over-the-air music downloading on select phones. Here's a clip from C|Net News.com:The new service, called V Cast Music, is scheduled to become available on Jan. 16 at Circuit City, Verizon Wireless stores and Verizon's Web site, according to documents seen by CNET News.com.

What has become quickly ubiquitous in the mobile phone market in just a year is now receiving an upgrade. No, not in some pretty color or diamond studded montage but in actual features and technology. The new RAZR V3c is improving on what is already a statement in cell phone fashion adding a better camera, more multimedia features, a faster connection via EVDO, and of course a sexy new design.

My dad, a Lt. Col. in the Marine Corps and also a DARPA employee, was priviledged enough to attend this year's DARPA Grand Challenge (and actually got to tailgate one of the challenger's throughout the 150-mile long course). One of the contestants in this year's grueling race, a test of true AI brawn and brainpower, was Volkswagen's own Touareg named Stanley (it's namesake belonging to its owner

It appears that Nokia is hot on the tails of Apple Computer, Inc. and other technology conglomerates such as DELL in opening their own retail store, their first in Moscow, Russia. Other retail locations will be opening up worldwide in the next couple of years. The purpose of Nokia providing a brick-and-mortar version of their online marketplace is of course to allow consumers to get the full
