Why is this set to manual by default? I was wondering why my volume controls only worked when the keyboard is first plugged in and stopped working after shutdown/reboots
If the volume controls on your keyboard stops working, check the Human Interface Device Access service on your computer to make sure it is set to Automatic.
What is going on here? I noticed my data for march is over double so I checked and in one hour shows I used 274 GB. That’s more than I normally use in a month good thing I have no cap.
Total usage for this timeframe is 282 GB*
Roll over hour to see usage

Finally switched back to cable hope this goes better than last time. So far speeds are good just hope they stay that way. Last time they would drop to dialup speed and support was very bad.

I just noticed the site is down. The master server is still up and the client can still be downloaded here.
Just notice Google is testing a new layout. Looks good hope they keep it and replace the current one.

Starting to wonder when I will have a stable internet connection. Problems started in the end of December. A couple of days of no internet but before they came it started working again all of a sudden so no one ended up coming. Now few days later its been working but I get random disconnects from games on XBOX Live and IM programs. It’s not so bad on the computer but I am unable to play a full game on XBOX without being disconnected very annoying most time happens with in seconds of the game starting. They were supposed to call today but never got a call and haven’t called them again yet since it takes hours just to get a hold of anyone. Looks like Saturday will be spent on the phone with them.
Google Voice lets you manage all your phone communications and seamlessly make and receive calls on any of your existing phones. But what if you don’t have your phone with you? Or what if you’re in a place with poor cell phone reception, or you’re traveling internationally and don’t want to incur expensive roaming charges? Wouldn’t it be great if you could use your computer to make or receive calls?
Starting today you can use Gmail to receive or place Google Voice calls.
To get started, check the box next to Google Chat in your list of forwarding phones and the next time someone calls your Google Voice number, Gmail will notify you of an incoming call. You can take the call or even listen in as the caller leaves a message, in a single step right from your computer.
To make a call, just click the Call phone link in Gmail and enter any number or name from your address book.
Finally, check out this video:
We’re rolling out this feature to U.S. based Gmail users over the next few days, so you’ll be ready to get started once “Call Phones” shows up in your chat list (you will need to install the voice and video plug-in if you haven’t already). If you’re using Google Apps for your school or business, then you won’t see it quite yet. We’re working on making this available more broadly – so stay tuned!
For more information, visit gmail.com/call.
You can now drop files to the desktop or a folder to download attachments.
I currently am hosting the tnet2 master server. Anyone you used to play tnet2 can go to http://www.tnet2.org and download the client. Working on a new theme for it. A few of the old players come on every know and then. Old accounts work from 2005. The wrong database got restored so newer accounts were lost just remake your account.
I have a few google wave invite still. If anyone would like one just leave a comment or send me a message.
Right about now I am wishing I could redo my whole life, that can’t happen so going to try starting over. For the last couple years I have been wanting to lose the weight I have gained since moving from California. Off and on I have had trouble with my weight. I have gone from being a kid with a normal weight when I was young to being fat. I’m sure my problem is staying active. It started when I was put into foster care and group homes. I gained a lot of weight while in them. Except for while being in the group home I wasn’t very active. I didn’t have many friends and stayed indoors. Like my current life is. I would say I stay fat till around when I turned 20 or so… I was around 235 then and felt a lot like I do now needing change. It was hard to take it off at first then it seem to get easier. I rode my bike a lot every day almost and other things to stay active. I want to get back into riding my bike. I need lose some weight before that. Last time I tried and it was only around 1-2 miles and I got tired. I just weighed myself today and now at 263 hoping to get that to 260 in a week. We will see so far it’s not been working.
I had a lot goals when I first moved back to Erie. So far the only one I have managed to get done is getting my G.E.D. this year. I should have had that done when I first got here. I thought it would take me more time then it did. I don’t really want to stop at getting just that but I am unsure of where I want to go from there. I have looked at different computer classes. I have the same worries about them that I had when first trying to get my G.E.D. I just don’t know if I am smart enough. I need to also find work I can’t imagine doing jobs like I have in the past since the physical and required lots of lifting and being in shape. I think I would have died if I tried starting the job I had in California in the shape I am in now. When I do start working again I would like to fix up the many things around the house that need done. I have been sad before but looking at my life lately really got me down. I don’t really have friends since I moved back other then family don’t know people that are here in Erie. My goal for this week is going to be at least lose some weight even if its just few pounds. I doubt anyone will read this it’s mostly just for me to vent.

It’s late and I am wide awake. Another night of being awake at 5 am instead of just waking up I haven’t even started sleeping yet. Lately I have gone to bed around 10 am and waking up about 1 pm – 3 pm. No matter how hard I try I always end up being awake at night.
Anyone reading my blog that doesn’t have Google Wave or Google Voice contact me if you want an invite. I have a few invites left.
