Great question on Apple VS Microsoft

Over on ZDNet blogs, Adrian Kinglsey-Hughes asks a great question....

"How long until Apple is bigger than Microsoft?"

Phishing scams - can happen to anyone

Did you ever see those emails that say they come from your bank... .or some other bank you don't deal with.... or maybe PayPal even though you don't have an account.... or you get it to an email that is not associated to an account????????

(I've seen all those emails.... and more)

Well, falling prey to phising scams can happen.

French President Nicolas Sarkozy is one of the people who fell victim to such a scam. 

It can literally happen to anyone.... keep your guard up!!

New Flock release and Hello world!!!

Hello out there.

It's been about forever since I've posted anything here. But, it's time to start posting once again.

I've been keeping my eye on technology news... .for a number of years.

Just wanted to post that Flock, a browser based on Mozilla Firefox has just released their new version. Flock 2.0.

I've used Flock quite a bit but haven't really used all of it's features... it has alot of built in features, new ones include some new functionality for MySpace.

Check it out.
