Real Estate and sales

So, yeah, not talking about land. Unfortunately. We will someday, we hope. I'm talking about Cyber Real Estate. Domain names and web hosting, baby!

Yesterday, I could not sleep very well. I woke up early. Work had been stressful. I decided to purchase some "real estate" for Dez. I want her to be able to pursue her hobby as much as possible. In turn, I get to pursue one of mine-tech. It works out.

Dez Newcomb Photography is now live. It still needs some attention, but I think it's a good start. I love the fact we have a simple way of her being known/found. Dez enjoys pictures, making them. I want it to be something she can enjoy and perhaps get paid for enjoying. We're working on it. I'll be working on it some more momentarily.

The other part, I sold my Iphone. I was sad to do so, but I think the market is prime, and I don't need it. I found a gadget that will allow me to do what I want while maintaining my tech-y specs. I'm looking at the Nokia N810. I can do all the things I used the Iphone for and more. The "more" part is what is exciting. It's not terribly costly. It moves me away from Apple's stinginess. It's a Linux-run machine, which means sweet 3rd party applications. Eventually, I can see us running Linux exclusively. It's still challenging to me, but I use it on my old laptop. PCLinuxOS is a pretty easy transition for those of you interested in giving Linux a spin. Easy to use and simply works right away. I love free, no-hassle software.
