CEDo510 - Welcome to My World

Welcome to my blog. I find this a great place to "put stuff" that others can look at. I also want please fill out the class information form on our WIKI. I will be sending you an invititation to join the wiki, you may have received it already. I know you've filled out a lot of forms but this one will help me keep track of you folks on paper. (Yes, I will probably print the results out.)

You may have asked why I didn't have some kind of ice breaker or meet and greet session. My answer is that you know each other and I'm the outsider. I will use the information sheets to get to know you a little better.

Welcome, I have assembled some materials that you might want to review after we are done or share with colleagues and students. These will be here because blogs don't go away.

Another Google app is the Google Notebook. I put one together, for you about Jewish Blog Sites.

A Vista Solution

One problem that I have had with Window's Vista OS is that software publishers do not create installers that are Vista compatible. That means that programs don't install correctly and then, don't uninstall. This leaves pieces of programs all over the computer, especially in the registry.

One of my Vista machines has had several programs that just would not uninstall. What to do? Yesterday I did a search on this problem and I found a new tool for users that will uninstall completely. It is easy to use and best of all, there is a portable version that you can use with no installation and even on a portable drive or flash drive.

It is called Revounistaller and is freeware!
