Update: Projects

I have been working on two website projects over the last month or so, the first is a site called ITGarbage.com, I am using this site as a dump for IT information and knowledge that I learn while while at work or while working on various other things that have to do with technology, and hopefully other people find this information useful also. The second project is a website called FileDust.com, I started working on this just to learn php/mysql, it has been such a good experience that it’s starting to take on a life of its own. The site is similar to ThePirateBay as it allows you to search many of the popular torrent trackers for files and then provides magnet links to those files so you can use software life utorrent or Vuze to download them. I am planning on adding more features to this site such as image hosting and a pastebin. That is all for now!

Windows 8

Microsoft recently release there Consumer Preview for Windows 8. Today I had the chance to download and install the x64 version on a spare harddrive I had laying around.

Windows 8

I have only had it installed for about 20mins. But the interface is very different from any other flavor of Windows I have used. I think this layout works for mobile devices well, I will have to play with it more to see if I like it on my PC.

I picked up a new phone this week. I got the newest version of Android code name Ice Cream Sandwich, on the Samsung Galaxy Nexus. I will post more cool stuff for that soon.
