OK… So, yet again I sit here completely frustrated because some code that I have implemented on a site doesn’t work with Internet Explorer.  For those of you who don’t know, Internet Explorer is the program that you use to browse the internet.  Microsoft has it automatically installed on every computer that has windows.  And, well… to be blunt… it is hated by about 95% of all tech people.

There are 6 people (including myself) that deal with web development in different ways at work.  I am going to estimate that I deal with an IE problem at least once a week.  Once I find one, it usually takes about an hour to fix.  Sometimes it takes much longer.

Anyway, if my tech team deals with the same problem, that’s 6 hours per week that we’re dealing with crap that Microsoft has blessed us with.

OK, so 6 hours times 52 weeks = 312 hours of wasted time.  Let’s say the average tech person makes $14 per hour.

Microsoft, please send a check, payable to Dave Conklin in the amount of $4,368.  I’ll send a bill for next year.

OK… so here’s the deal. I am going to continue to update things here. However, all of my posts that include photography that I have shot will be appearing on ConklinImages.com. To make things easy for you, whenever an updated post is on ConklinImages.com, it will appear to the right under “The Latest Photos”.

I am hoping to get a bit more serious about my photography hobby. It’s a great stress reliever for me. For more details on that, stay tuned to ConklinImages.com.

I know you’ve been waiting a long long time for a computer powered greenhouse to grow your plants in. But until now it just hasn’t been available on the market. I have insanely incredible news for you. Gizmodo.com has announced the availability of the USB computer powered greenhouse. You can actually pick one up yourself for just $19.99.

not only does a calm with an adjustable light but it’s all powered completely from your computer. You can monitor statistics on your plants the growth of your plants and more

enjoy!

OK… I’m embarrassed. I have neglected my site, which is the absolute number one HORRIBLE thing to do when you have a web site. I have had a bunch of people mention that it hasn’t been updated.

So here goes. I now share with you the incredible idea of using your toilet as a sink to conserve water. So to all my “Tree Huggin’ Liberals”, this is for you…

Oh, and if the thought of using toilet water makes you sick… don’t be ashamed.  It does me too.  And, yes… I DO understand it’s like all the other water in the house.
