    What's a good web based photo browsing tool?

    I have been using Picasa (free from Google at www.picasa.com) to manage my albums. It has an option of exporting to a website with some basic formats, XML, or your own custom template. I am using the XML export to generate photo albums on a .NET site I run...pretty cool stuff. I even have a...

    Cheap RFID interface

    It would be nice to have a key tag size RFID tag... Don't think I could get the wife to hang a 2" tag on her keyring...much less get one into my pocket. Also, are the RFID tags they sell here compatible with the other RFID reader/HomeSeer Plugin that is being discussed here.. Much cheaper than...

    Monitoring Motorola Surfboard Modem

    So how do you talk to the modem? I have a Motorola SurfBoard modem and can't think of how you would do it? Talk to your external IP address on a certain port? I think as script to do this would be great...especially if I can use it to help trouble shoot networking issues. Sometimes I have to...

    RAID Cards

    The "lost" drive on a RAID 5 setup is actually used to store the parity from all the other drives. This is what gives you the redundancy. Raid 5 is also a lot faster for reads than a single drive or RAID1 so it would be good for media or other data storage that needs quick reads. How Parity...

    Hum... I've been getting this error all night long

    Hey E, You should trim some of the fat out of that error screen...unless the user logged in is an admin... Some of that info, especially the SQL Select statement can be used to simplify hacking... Just the recommended way of doing things... Patrick

    VB.net Discussion

    Is this a utility class with functions for talking to mySQL or are you still just using the standard System.Data.OleDb class functions? Has mySQL started supporting stored procedures yet?
