Remember when I had that heart-wrenching Xbox 360 console failure that was a serious general hardware failure? It was definitely an E 74 error, and when I researched it, I realized that it was not covered by Microsoft’s [MSFT] three-year warranty for the Red Right of Death errors, because they were limiting that coverage to [...]

Earlier today, Javamancy completed a sizeable system update today. For people who view Javamancy from the safety and comfort of desktop or notebook computers, in the confines of traditional Web browsers, there should not be any dramatic changes. On the other hand, those of you who enjoy browsing Javamancy from smartphones and mobile devices and [...]
The Setup Back on July 17, 2008, I had an inkling of an idea… why not make Javamancy more friendly to mobile devices that are able to access the site? The date is significant because I’d recently acquired the Palm [PALM] Centro, and as I was trying out the provided Web browser (Blazer, the NetFront [...]
Starbucks [SBUX] is closing more local storefronts, in keeping with the continuing economic downturn. The Washington Business Journal reported yesterday that eight more stores are closing in the DC area, including two that I have visited on occasion.

The Setup A few days ago, I’d posted about the recent arrival of the MacBook White. And we’re not even done with that story yet… But I’m not the only person who has had to agonize on how to advance personal and pro-am IT decisions. Directors, managers, developers, and techies worldwide continue to perform their [...]
A Little Bit: For today only (from 6:00 AM until 2:00 PM), when you order a Denny’s [DENN] Grand Slam meal, you can get a free Grand Slamwich. This is the newest limited-time promotion in Denny’s current campaign.
It has been almost one year since Javamancy was launched, and as we wrap up some of the content programming and development activities here for the coming first year anniversary, I’d like to just say “Thanks!” for following along with us, and I hope that you’ll stick around for as long as we continue this journey.
Well, some of you actually thought I was playfully joking. Well, I wasn’t joking, although there was definitely a playful ‘tude to the statement. In light of the weblog’s momentary outage, we’ve had a Twitter account established to manage the ins-and-outs of Javamancy, Twitter-wise. You can now keep track of Javamancy at http://twitter.com/javamancy. So, follow the tweets [...]
