My site needs re-vamping

Steve — Mon, 10 Dec 2007 05:57:40 -0600

I started my site merely to blog about my running and in the process get a handle on all this web stuff. What's happened since is that I got involved in writing a Wordpress to Drupal converter program, blogged about it, and lately, if you haven't noticed I'm prattling on about C++.

What I'm getting to is that I seriously think that my site needs re-vampting in order to better separate the different topics.

I'm open to suggestions.

Foxit Reader

Steve — Thu, 15 Nov 2007 08:10:35 -0600

I'm in the process of re-building my system (because Vista broke on me and I'm still peeved) and got to the stage of re-installing Adobe Reader as that's what I've always used. This time I decided to do a little research, see what else was out there.

I did a Google search on pdf reader software looking for an alternative and came across Foxit Reader, it's absolutely free.

I've subsequently installed it and is now my default (only) pdf reader program. I agree with the blurb at their website. It's exceedingly fast, loads in an instant and doesn't take over your system.

So, it's goodbye Adobe Reader.
