First MacBook Pro Post

OK, OK...technically this is my second MacBook Pro post, but I'm talking about the first one.

Just now trying out a Mac (I've been a PC guy for...well, forever really) as far as posting in Typepad, and I already see a difference.

MS Word is infamous for its problems with cutting and pasting into other programs, especially non MS programs.

Well, apparently they fixed it in Word 2007, but I didn't have that yet, and as you can see from some of the previous posts, which were composed on a PC in Word, and then cut and pasted over to the type WYSIWYG editor, I was having real formatting problems.

Opened TextEdit, which I believe is the default like Notepad in Windows, typed a few lines, and they came out perfectly.

This should renew my blogging, now that I can do it my easily.

Just bought a MacBook Pro

Google Tweaks Itself

Jason the Content Librarian reviews some important changes in “All Things Google,” particularly the new Universal Search and Google Experimental Tools.

Gotta thank him for pointing me to the experimental stuff like map views. 

Check this out: let’s say you’re interested in ZZ Top concerts?  OK…  Map View

Definitely has potential…
