Quebec City? Dec 12, 11, 9:25 a.m.

How's it during New Years? Worth going? Just looking for a fast, festive, cheap vacation via NYC, very last-minute. If so, recommendations on where to stay?

Carpentry Dec 6, 11, 8:58 a.m.

So, I'm in need of a decent shoe rack for my apartment. Could not find a single item that matched what I wanted, so I modeled a basic one in Cinema4D. Now I'm trying to figure out how to get it built. Does anyone have any experience with carpenters in the NYC area? Is it unheard of to provide a basic model to a local guy and have him build something close to it? Would something like that be outlandishly expensive?

I'd love to be DIY about this and not spend more than like $150 but not exactly practical/possible for me.

NY eat & work joints. Oct 26, 11, 8:50 a.m.

In Midtown area, still hunting for the best space to grab eats, some coffee, and do some collab work with others. Sketching, etc. Don't need crazy amounts of tablespace, just some. Any recommendations?

Videos in PDF Oct 19, 11, 9:24 p.m.

Has anyone done any testing between Powerpoint and PDF, when it comes to embedding full-screen animations (.mov, H.264)?

I've seen one Powerpoint launch a full-screen video and it played flawlessly without stuttering (surprisingly). But I haven't experienced any PDF presentations, built in InDesign CS5, that have done it. I know it's possible, but I want to know if one format performs better than the other. The target machine would be a Mac (probably a laptop).

Block right click Aug 11, 11, 8:37 a.m.

How are these guys blocking the right-click menu from appearing? Specifically on Google Chrome.

I ask because it's infuriating and I want to disable it.

La Guardia airport. Jul 24, 11, 11:54 a.m.

Never flown from here, always via JFK. Wondering, by cab, if you think this Google Maps estimate is accurate, in terms of time?

Flight is at 8am. Is the 30 minute drive fair, or is it more like an hour?

Microsoft Outlook Jul 12, 11, 7:44 a.m.

Does anyone have any experience with a solution to treat Microsoft Outlook the same way Gmail does? I am at my wit's end with the oldschool gigantic scrolling list of emails. Desperately wish they would automatically cluster conversations the same way Gmail does.

Is there any adequate solutions/methods to doing this? The email system here at this agency is Microsoft Exchange.
