back from the dead
I haven't updated the blog in a while. This is mainly due to the following reasons:
1. Waiting for ISP to switch service over.
2. Counterintuitive method of setting up devices to talk to ISP.
3. Sheer hell of setting up wireless network on correct frequency, encryption, etc.
4. Greater hell of adding wireless adapter to desktop computer; required special setting on router/access point. By this point I wanted to kill myself at 2 in the morning.
Obviously, cooler heads, dogged persistence and random stupidity prevailed and I'm writing all 2 of you now on our nice little wireless network.
More geeky fun: our TiVo is also patched into the wireless network as well, for the not-at-all-geeky fun of playing mp3 files over the TV. Pictures too -- finally, a forum for endless travel pictures of Southeast Asia that's even more boring than our photo albums. However, to my credit, many of the pictures look stunning on the TV. Good enough to blow one up to small poster size.
