Amberjack, Scot Duke and Netvibes

Posted by rexdixon on November 3, 2006

Amberjack is a way to give a tour of your web site. Amberjack LogoThat could be very interesting to use for people with full on domains running. I have a few, I might have to give it try soon.

Scot DukeMr. Business Golf. Scot has been on me for a few weeks now after I told him,”Hey Scot, you should try one of these feed things, I read that Netvibes is the ticket, give it a try.

Well as Rex Dixon went off pursuing more news in the tech world, Scot between his Mr. Business Golf show, and his Happy Hour with Mr. Business Golf showuhm – not to mention his blog called Business Golf and of course the ever so important seminars for his bookHow To Play Business Golf - he sets his Netvibes up.

What does Rex Dixon do? He goes about it the “hard way” as usual. In the past few days, every chance Scot has had he has mentioned, “Hey Rex, uhm, you set up your Netvibes yet?” Rex of course didn’t, or had some sort of thing going on such as internet issues.

Finally last night into today, I set mine up. Netvibes does rock, and I want to say THANK YOU Mr. Business Golf for staying on me about getting it set up! Technically Speaking, it’s been an extremely slow news day folks, time to go out to dinner now!

Brightroll logoBrightroll relaunched this morning with a name change from PostRoller and now offers direct access to the ad insertion process for consumer video producers.

Microsoft has backed down on its previously-disclosed licensing terms for Vista and will now allow for unlimited installations on a single device.

Technically Speaking — I thought Rex Dixon was on “Notice” for making my opinions known!

Electronic Voting – Push Button to Vote Again!

Posted by rexdixon on November 3, 2006

Voting systems activists in California have revealed a little-known feature of AVC Edge electronic voting machines that allows a single person to vote multiple times.

The feature, a yellow button located on the back of the units, is supposed to be used as a back-up for use by poll workers in case their smart-card activators fail to boot the machine.

Technically Speaking, you can now definately vote for whoever, and now write in Rex Dixon — as I have been trying to hammer home – these machines are NOT the way to go with electronic voting!!!
