Desktop Madness

It has been ages since I last did a meme here so I stole this one from Juice. I am really itching to do this meme despite that I have to sit a final exam later this afternoon at 3:00 pm. Oh, don’t worry, it’s just Theology, and really, I don’t have to memorize anything, I only need to read pages and pages of photocopied lectures.

Without any further ado, here it is…

As you can see, my wallpaper is from Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix. I’ve been using this wallpaper for months and I’m tired of it. I tried to look for another wallpaper but nothing suited me. On the left side, you can see my desktop icons. I only put two columns of icons on my desktop to make it look neat. On the other side is the Windows Sidebar. I don’t usually use it but I like its functionality and features.

And now, my top five programs.

  1. Adobe Photoshop CS2 I use this program to manipulate my photos and create the images that I use for my layouts.
  2. Yahoo! Messenger Aside from texting, I use Y!M to get connected to my high school classmates. This also serves as my connection to my online friends and present blockmates.
  3. Mozilla Firefox Do I still need to explain what this program does?
  4. Notepad For encoding my layouts. Yes, I’m comfortable using Notepad to encode HTML, CSS and PHP.
  5. Limewire and uTorrent (tie) For downloading mp3 files and other whatnots.

Feel free to steal this meme. I’m now signing off to continue reviewing for my exam later.

Meme: Abused Programs

Whoa. I just posted an entry yesterday, and here I am, posting another one. Oh, well, because nothing worth-blogging has happened to me this week, I’m just going to do a meme.

Instructions: Click “Start,” you’ll see there shortcuts to the programs you use most often. Put ‘em here, and give each an explanation. If there are other programs that are listed in your Start Menu, feel free to include them here.

Notes: As far as I know, only Windows XP and Vista have this feature. If you were using Windows XP or Vista but you don’t see a list, right click your Task Bar and select properties. Under the Start Menu tab, select “Start menu” and click OK.

Mozilla Firefox

Do I really have to tell why it is on my Start Menu? You know how Internet Explorer sucks. And this might interest you:

Adobe Photoshop CS2

I think I made a wrong move when I upgraded to this version (from 7.0). There are only a few changes that I have seen.

Notepad

I use this program to create my HTML, CSS, and PHP files.

Winamp

Everybody needs a dose of music everyday, eh?

MS Word

I use this for papers that I need in school.

SmartFTP Client

It says that it isn’t free, but its free trial of 30-days never expire. Lol. I use this for transferring file to the server.

Oh, there is a plugin for Mozilla Firefox called FireFTP. You may want to use it for transferring your files to your server. It is very lite, that means, there are only limited features.

Minesweeper

Hey, I know how to play this game. You don’t just click here and there. You need to use your brains! I love this game because it tickles my mind. My best time for the expert is 234 seconds.

Command Prompt

The reason why this is on the list is because I’ve been pinging my site for the past three months. And did you know you can reformat your diskettes with this program?

Xampp

This is the program that I use to run LAMP (minus the “L”). It’s very helpful for me because I can now squash the bugs in my WP Themes even though I’m not connected to the internet.

PSPad Editor

It’s Notepad with many features. I only use this program when I have to look for a certain line in a PHP file.

Flickr Uploadr

Lately, I’ve been uploading pictures to my Flickr account.

Hearts

Lol. Yeah, I also know how to play this game. It’s very simple. I play this game when I wait to be connected to the internet.

Limewire

Despite that I’m on a dial-up connection, and sharing of mp3 files is illegal, I still use it. Lol. I love Limewire! Thanks to it, supporting piracy is easier! :lol!:

Nero StartSmart

No, I don’t usually burn those music files that I’ve downloaded from the internet. What I transfer into CD-R’s are files other than mp3 and wma.

*****

Plugs: I’ve got two new hostees, visit their blogs! Vincent and Drex.

Wag maging manhid!

I’ll just repost the thing that I posted on my last entry. I still receive useless comments. People are now only blogging and commenting to have more visitors and comments in their sites. It’s not the real purpose of blogging. It was not made to have many comments. And for the first time in my blogging career I have to say: shit kayo! I’m already like a broken record! As what I can see… new bloggers are really tired and lazy to read long entries (and even the short ones). Yung sa inyo naman, useless! Mas masaklap pa yata sa mga pinagcocomment ninyo!

And oh, why there are many new bloggers that are so naive? They’re using WordPress but they don’t know how to edit the layout and such. And to cap it all, they don’t even know simple HTML and CSS. This is stupidity! And many don’t know, WP has its own documentation! It might help you answer your questions. It’s so obvious that people are not reading! In your WP Dashboard, you will see there a link to the documentation of WP and even in the readme file of WP.

Hayan, nagpapatama na talaga ako. Mabasa ninyo sana ito kahit tamad kayong magbasa! At kung mabasa nyo man ito, wag kayong maging manhid! Marami na ang mga nakakapansin, hindi lang ako. I don’t care if you won’t visit my blog and comment here anymore because I don’t really care on reading your useless entries!
