Blogging

I havent posted in ages because my computer has broke, about 20 million times. I think i’ve got it working now, but i will have to put on all my programs again. I try to do a review on my wireless keyboard now, but it my not be up for a while. Also i got a hard disk of my dad a few days ago, a 160gb Samsung one, because he got a 1tb (1000gb) one for his birthday. I put XP on the Samsung disk this time to see if that was the problem.

Tech Survey

I sent a list of 25 questions to Jake Wright after seeing a survey by goalkeeperg, he answered the questions and recorded the video. Here is a link to the video: http://www.ustream.tv/recorded/1563553. Here are the questions and Jakes answers:

‘Another list of questions, sent buy a viewer. This time I’ll actually type my answers too.

1) What made you want to buy a Mac?
The fact that they have less problems and the beauty of them. Also, I wanted something different, not just another PC.

2) Who or what gave you the idea of creating a website.
Well I started my blog because I’d seen other tech blogs around the web and wanted to start my own. I started with Google Blogger and then made my website just so it was a little more personalised and configurable.

3) Why did you start streaming?
Well I was sitting recording videos every week anyway so I thought I’d let people watch live. It looked fun and would add more interactivity to my website. Also, I was inspired by people like Chris Pirillo.

4) Who is your role model and why?
I don’t really have one, but if I had to choose, possibly Chris Pirillo because of the way he has made a living from his online business or Bill Gates, not because I like Microsoft, but because he has worked hard to get his company to where it is today.

5) Do you have a digital camera? If so, what model is it?
Pentax Optio M20

6) What mobile phone do you have?
I don’t have a working one.

Again, I don’t have a working mobile phone.

8)How fast can you type?

9) How long could you last without a computer?
About a month, maybe.

10) How much of the day do you spend on the computer?
Most of the day, providing I have nothing else to do.

11) What was the first computer that you owned?
Mac mini.

12) What piece of software do you most want?
Final Cut Studio/Express.

13) Are Macs worth the money they charge?
The hardware is not but the whole Mac experience is, but since the only alternative is a PC, I recommend buying one anyway.

14) Do you have a TV in your room? If so, how big is it.
Yes, 14″ CRT. I usually use my projector instead though.

15) If you won £10000, what one thing would you spend it on?
