Social Networking sites May 15, 08, 10:59 a.m.

What's the big deal about them?
I've seen a lot of personal (and business) pages with links to a ton of social networking sites and I wonder what's the point.
I know some people argue that it's a good way to stay in touch, but...you can't do that with email?
I don't get 'em. I think they're a pointless waste of cyber space.
On the other hand, which one do u guys recommend I should sign up for? :)

Indexhibit Installation May 8, 08, 10:43 a.m.

I'm having trouble installing indexhibit on my server (MT). I've search everywhere but I can't find a straight answer so I figure I'd ask here.
I'm stuck at step 2 of the installation process where it asks for the database info. I get "Please check your config settings again."
So i did. The DB name is correct, the login name is correct, the password is where I get confused since when I created the DB i didn't assign any user nor password. Also, I'm installing it in a subdomain's folder, would that affect the db's hots path?

Mac - PC file sharing Mar 3, 08, 10:51 a.m.

I have a shared folder on my PC that i can connect with my mac via Connect to Server. Lately connecting to it crashes my Finder or the file transfers is super slow. It even slows down my internet connections. Has anybody else had a similar problem and a solution to it?
any help will be greatly appreciated.

Losing clients Feb 20, 08, 2:09 p.m.

Sucks, I was just informed by one client that he will no longer require my services since the company will have some inhouse to do the job. Another agency I freelance to confirmed last week that its biggest client was bought by a bigger company, therefore they (the agency) might lose that client, which indirectly is my biggest client. All this in the slowest two months of my career since many years ago.

Water is bad Jan 14, 08, 8:56 a.m.

I just got this from a friend, it thought i'd share with you guys:
To my friends who enjoy a glass of spirits.. and those who don't:

As Ben Franklin said: In wine there is wisdom, in beer there is freedom, in water there is bacteria. In a number of carefully controlled trials, scientists have demonstrated that if we drink 1 liter of water each day, at the end of the year we would have absorbed more than 1 kilo of Escherichia coli, (E. coli) - bacteria found in feces. In other words, we are consuming 1 kilo of poop.
However, we do NOT run that risk when drinking wine & beer (or tequila, rum, whiskey or other liquor) because alcohol has to go through a purification process of boiling, filtering and/or fermenting.

Remember: Water = Poop,
Wine = Health
Therefore, it's better to drink spirits and talk stupid, than to drink water and be full of shit.

new blog Jan 9, 08, 1:59 p.m.

Hi all,
I'm launching my blog, http://blog.grafikal.org

Critiques, comments, thoughts are welcome, be gentle though (and use lube) since I'm a blog, wordpress, php virgin.

photo crit Dec 17, 07, 9:26 a.m.

According to the client, the following photo looks "lifeless". They sell ceramic tile flooring and this photo is pretty much like all the other photos I've done for them. What do u guys think? I think they want more decorations but like a good non-creative client, they can't express their opinion in practical terms.

website quote Dec 1, 07, 9:53 a.m.

I've been asked for a quote for a site redesign, no problem so far but the client told me that he will require periodic updates on certain sections such as adding pics, news, etc. How should I quote those small updates? hourly? per update? a monthly fee?
