    Congrats to Byootaful!

    Ex-staffer starting a thread in Chat With Staff?? Why could that be??? :scratch:... Well, I was doing my rounds in the Aussie forum (as I do, since I am of course Australian :P) and noticed the orange S of staffhood alongside this member's name. I can confidently say that if any one CF member...

    The Great Microsoft Blunder...

    ...is Internet Explorer, according to this article: http://www.pcmag.com/article2/0,1895,1952995,00.asp Thoughts? Is IE, as the author calls it, a "dead albatross", and would M$ be better off releasing Vista without a browser? And (perhaps more humorously) has anyone experienced a M$ product...

    Dizzy Day!!

    Why do I proclaim this day to be Dizzy Day? Today will have been a day in which many a cricket fan would have been both extremely surprised and excited at the same time at the remarkable feat of Aussie pace bowler turned masterclass batsman Jason "Dizzy" Gillespie. Even though Australia are...

    The Westlink M7

    The toll free period for the M7 finishes up tomorrow, so I decided to try it out when I was driving to and from Lauren's place to see her head off on her Vanuatu mission trip. It took a good 7 minutes off my regular travel time, but I think the toll that I'd pay if I used that route regularly...

    Crime writers

    Hi everyone :) I'm looking to put some good crime fiction on my Christmas wish list, since after borrowing a Patricia Cornwell novel from my local library I'm rediscovering my affinity for the genre that I had back in high school. Who are some other good crime authors that you would have no...

    Software for increasing image resolution

    I'm Googling to find out how I can up the size of a few photos I took last Saturday night at my girlfriend's sister's engagement party. The pics turned out great through my good ol' S5500, but I realised that I'd not changed my resolution from 640 x 480 (which I'd used to take pics of the moon...

    A message about "Help" threads

    Hi members. I've seen a bit of an increase in these sorts of threads here in Blessings Exchange. Whilst a lot of you have said you'll do things in return, it'd be good if you could tell us exactly what you can offer in return for the blessings. Sorry if it sounds like I'm being picky, but some...

    Running a DVD drive on a low speed computer

    I'm interested in perhaps buying an external DVD burner for the family's main home PC, and using it on both the PC and using it with my laptop for simple viewing of DVDs and transferring files from a DVD to my laptop (I am actively involved in legal trading of live music shows, and sometimes I...

    Ask KristianJ...

    Okay, I'll be the first staff member to put myself in some sort of an interviewee's chair...ask me any questions and I'll see if I can provide answers to them :) Or move them to the most appropriate forum...:P (just kidding :D)

    Tripods for digital cameras

    I'm thinking of purchasing a tripod so that I can take better landscape shots and not have to deal with unsteady hands. After looking on eBay, I've noticed that there are a very wide range of sizes for tripods - I'm wanting something that's not too small, but still portable enough for me to...
