Syncing Multiple Google Calendars to the iPhone

This is a short one, but one I didn’t see anywhere else until I did some digging. By default when you setup Google Sync with the iPhone (using ActiveSync as I described earlier), it only syncs your main calendar. If you have other calendars, you have to go to http://m.google.com/sync/ and configure your device. You [...]

Amazon Kindle 2 review

I’m a big fan of e-books and have read many on several devices, including my old Palm Tungsten T and T|X, Nokia 770 and most recently my iPhone.  There are issues with all of these though, mostly with battery life and the screen, but the Nokia 770 was the best of the bunch.  I don’t [...]

The Galileoscope is pretty cool

I picked this up from the Bad Astronomy blog (which I love) – the Galileoscope.  Galileo used his telescope to discover 4 moons of Jupiter, observe Saturn’s rings, and look at the Moon.  For the International Year of Astronomy 2009, a group of astronomers and educators created a replica of Galileo’s telescope.  I just ordered [...]

Automatically adding weather to your Google Calendar

I just found out you could do this. My favorite weather site, Weather Underground, exports its forecasts in iCal format.  For example, the link for Dayton is here.

Syncing Mail, Contacts and Calendars with Google, Thunderbird and the iPhone

I’m pretty spoiled by Exchange and Outlook at work.  Regardless of all the Microsoft hate out there, Exchange/Outlook is great for email, calendars, contacts and tasks in an enterprise environment.  For a while now I have been wanting to set up something similar at home.  Recently I started using Google’s various services (GMail, Calendar and [...]

Snow!

We’ve gotten a lot of snow here in Ohio in the past several days. Work has been cancelled the past two days and I wouldn’t be surprised if we at least had a 2 hour delay tomorrow. I took a few pictures that I’ve uploaded to the gallery.

Morrowind Mod Guide

After finishing Fallout 3 (post on that to come), I’ve started playing Morrowind again. I played it to completion when the game first came out, but I never played the expansions and there are a LOT of modifications to improve the game, so I thought it was time to give it another go. There are [...]
