A new blog/wiki project

A few weeks ago while I was updating some of the dog park pages over at Charleston Wiki, the thought crossed my mind that I should do a Charleston Dog Park Tour. I’d take the dogs to each of the dog parks in the area, take a bunch of pictures of the park and the dogs playing there and write about them. Good blog/wiki fodder I figured and it seemed like it would be a fun thing to do.

I’d have a little more to put down for the respective wiki entries and the pictures would make a nice supplement.

Maybe I could even take it on the road and do a Lowcountry Dog Park tour.

I know the dogs certainly wouldn’t mind, especially if there were ponds to check out and test for swim-ability.

Who wants to come along?

New monitor

The Samsung 226BW I ordered arrived today. Decided to take the opportunity to rearrange the computer setup and move things around a bit. I really need some kind of cable management system.
1600×1050 pixels of LCD goodness. This thing is super bright too. Had to crank the brightness all the way down so that it was tolerable. It’s on a swivel stand, but not height adjustable and for some reason it only tilts toward the back. 90° is as far forward as the monitor tilts, so you don’t want to position it too high.
Would like to try and get a dual-head setup going with the new monitor and the old CRT. Might look strange, but it’s one of the Dell Trinitron 17″ monitors and even after 7 years the image quality is still pretty good.
I love this monitor. I want another one now.
