Franco Castalone: LawTechTechnology and legal practiceI blog to educate myself- September 28, 2003 "I write books to educate myself." This from Paul Johnson, whose recent book on art history was discussed yesterday by Tyler Cowen of the Volokh Conspiracy. Johnson's shared insight applies to those who "blog", doesn't ithttp://radio.weblogs.com/0110436/categories/myProfession/2003/09/28.html#a449 Quick and simple file finder- September 28, 2003 ASFileFinder excels at the frequent task of searching for a file by its name. It is just over 75KB in size, and runs as a standalone executable -- no DLLs, not even an installation routine. When you run it, it asks you to choose a drive, and then does a quick survey of all the files on that drive. The process takes no more than a few seconds, and then it is ready to search. You then start to type in letters, and it displays the file names which match the...http://radio.weblogs.com/0110436/categories/myProfession/2003/09/27.html#a447 Franco's first law- September 27, 2003 Tom Mighell posted: A Brighter Outlook for Spam Sufferers -- Jeff Beard has a nice post outlining some of the new features available in the soon-to-be-released Outlook 2003. One thing that Jeff and I both are looking forward to is the enhanced spam filter. Read more about it in David Pogue's Microsoft Office 2003 Reviewed. While you're at it, head over to the New York Times E-mail subscription page and sign up for "Circuits," David's weekly newsletter. Definitely worth a read. I tried to...http://radio.weblogs.com/0110436/categories/myProfession/2003/09/27.html#a445 (Untitled)- September 26, 2003 Is this woman using a sex toyhttp://radio.weblogs.com/0110436/categories/myProfession/2003/09/25.html#a443 Avoid PDFExplorer- September 26, 2003 I downloaded and tried PDFExplorer. Avoid this product. It exhibits bizarre behavior and runs very slowly. Early indications of a problem: Although I identified a different directory on a different drive than the default c:-program files-pdfexplorer 1.2 (I never install programs there), it ignored my choice and installed into a newly created directory under c:-program files anyway. To add a PDF file to its database, some parameters have to be entered. It will...http://radio.weblogs.com/0110436/categories/myProfession/2003/09/25.html#a442 Resonance from the near past- September 23, 2003 When I first wrote my September 21 piece on K-logs, the sentence "The entire internet is a tool for information sharing" read "The entire goddamn internet is a tool for information sharing". I removed the expletive, not to placate my mother, though that is a good reason in itself, but because it rang a little familiar. Today I found it. It is a classic Tom Tomorrow quote, delivered in the course of his rant of October 14, 2002, one I have cited in this space...http://radio.weblogs.com/0110436/categories/myProfession/2003/09/23.html#a438 Combining the old and the new- September 22, 2003 This is a first. Steve Covell's LA-Legal.com site is a "static" web site which includes a separate scrollable window displaying his weblog, which happens to be posted in a directory off his main host site. It would not have to be -- the contained page could be at a remote site. This is an interesting use of a little-known web technology.http://radio.weblogs.com/0110436/categories/myProfession/2003/09/21.html#a437 |
