by dwilson on Nov.13, 2009, under The Funny Web

Because Techcrunch is reporting that Google Chrome OS is going to be released next week, I thought I would take this occasion to explain how to install it.

Open Up Control Panel, open Add or Remove Programs, and uninstall everything

Right-click on My Computer, Properties, Select the Hardware tab, and click on Device Manager. Then for each device, right-click and select uninstall.

Go to the Desktop, and delete everything

Repeat this step for My Documents, and the c drive (and other applicable drives).
Install the Google Chrome Browser (http://www.google.com/chrome), set as default browser.
Press start, programs, Google Chrome, right-click on Google Chrome, and select copy. Then go to the Startup folder, right-click and select paste. Google Chrome should now exist in your Startup folder.
Reboot your machine. You know have Google Chrome OS, congratulations. With this powerful new OS, you can now:
browse the web
power off the machine
Windows 7 and Snow Leopard finally have some real competition.

Denver’s #11

by dwilson on May.18, 2009, under The Funny Web

TheStar.com | Sports | Best sport city contest draws fans worldwide.

This article ranks cities for their professional team’s success since 2000. I wonder how much higher or lower Denver would have been if the 90s were included. Or if a city needed three teams instead of two (which would drop out Indianapolis, Vancouver, Montreal, Nashville, Anaheim (kinda), and Edmonton potentially). I have a good blog post cookin’ about Denver sports teams and numbers, so stay tuned.

Great Ad Placement

by dwilson on Jan.27, 2009, under The Funny Web

I know nothing of Battlestar Galactica, so potential spoiler alert? But, this is just awful. I would watch the whole thing, but the 1:15 mark onward will do.

Inspirational Book Review on Amazon

by dwilson on Jan.09, 2009, under The Funny Web

This is really funny, but not in a PG kinda way.

At age 36, I found myself in a medium security prison serving 3-5 years for destruction of government property and public intoxication. This was stiff punishment for drunkenly defecating in a mailbox but as the judge pointed out, this was my third conviction for the exact same crime.

It just gets better from there.
