I have been using Linux more and more at work and at home. I am still by no means a master at memorizing and recalling the specific commands that I need all of the time. Usually a search has to be done and then I can continue working as planned. […]

For some time now, I have wanted to move down to Kansas City, MO. I believe it is the perfect “compromise” city. And I don’t mean that in a bad way. That’s the best thing ever! You can’t get absolutely everything from a city or a geographical place you live, […]

Brad Merrill, the founder and editor of VentureBreak, recently converted his old blog, United Tech Guys to VentureBreak. The process of […]
I finally broke. A bunch of different things have been coming up, situations are aligning so I finally splurged. I splurged all over Amazon and satisfied my lust for the latest and greatest tech toys. That’s right, I ordered the brand new, ASUS Transformer Prime TF201 Eee Pad 10.1 inch […]
The buzz around SOPA has been circulating for a while now so I finally decided to dive in. I’m not one to be very political at all, I like to stay out of things I don’t know about, but this one has a little more effect on me. So I […]
