Lots going on here, so this blog post is designed to keep you up-to-date!

First. Check out this cool video from my pal Deke McCelland, he of Photoshop fame. I’ve known Deke for a while and as you can see from the video, we used to commiserate regarding a certain publisher.

Deke’s a great guy and has had an awesome career run. I’m happy to see that he’s still finding success. Folks, he writes the best Photoshop books out there. Period.

Second. I’ve been working on the Dictionary again! I’ve added lots of new code, plus about 70 new words. It continually amazes me how many words are not in the Dictionary. So I add them. Thanks to those of you who have suggested the new words, either intentionally or by searching for them.

The new code I’ve written allows for “best matching” type searches. So when you type in a term that’s close to an existing term, the dictionary will attempt to find it. I’m still refining things, but my goal is to make the Dictionary smarter.

Third. I continue my double-blogging duty, both here on Wambooli thrice weekly as well as at the PC Live website, with my 5-times-a-week blog, For PC’s Sake. Check it out, if you haven’t already.

By the way, the PC Live company is located underwater right now. Yes, they’re in Iowa and their headquarters were deluged by the rising rivers of the American heartland. I don’t know what the current status is, but the company remains on-line and helping folks, just at another location. I hope that things dry out soon for PC Live. They’re good folks.
