My company, Integrity Technology Solutions, is looking to take on a software development intern. If you attend a local college in Bloomington / Normal / Peoria, I’d sugest you check out and apply! Just as a FYI, our entire development team went to Illinois State University, and all started as interns here!

Yes, I said PDC ‘03, not ‘05. My boss stated that I need to get a budget going for ‘05, and since no info is available for ‘05 yet, I need to base it off of ‘03. Does anyone have the costs for PDC ‘03? Like, registration or any additional costs?

I have this nasty habit of always wanting to run the latest and greatest of any software. Sometimes this causes problems with my system, however I don’t think upgrading to Windows Messenger 5.1 will hinder my work. Supposedly, there’s enhancements in this version…whatever, I got the newest version.

Update: I just installed MSN Messenger 7.0 BETA, I wonder when my computer’s going to puke. BTW, this beta is just crazy…so many annoying things in it like “Nudge”

So back on October 27, 2004, Robert McLaws announced ProviderModel.com. In the announcement, he stated the Interscape USA Provider Model code will be available. So, its now December, and nothing has been done to the site, nor any code released. I ask this, was it a flop? Did Microsoft put their heavy foot down? Is McLaws just too darn busy right now?

This cool little app (pointed to by Ryan) allows you to IM people over MSN from the command line. I, however, won’t divulge Ryan’s thought for a new plugin…but if you grab the idea from the context above, I think you’ll understand.

If you missed it yesterday, BlogJet 1.2 BETA 31 was released yesterday:

Over the past month, I’ve been beta testing a new product by Avantrix called WipeClean. This product allows you to securely wipe files from your hard drive by writing zeros overall the bits on the drive. Another great feature that it adds, is if you wipe a folder, it’ll wipe that folders contents and subfolders based on a file mask that you provide. So, by easily supplying *.dat when wiping a folder, only files with that mask will get wiped leaving all other masks in-tact.
