Synergy at the Work Place
Friday, August 3rd, 2007A colleage of mine at work (while fixing my email) told me about this application called synergy, which allows you to span your input devices (mouse, and keyboard) across computers. I’m now utilizing this succesfully to control my laptop at work via my work station’s keyboard. This is nice because I really like my Microsoft semi-ergonomic keyboard. The clip board between both computers is shared as well which makes email easier to work with than it was before too.
Blizzard has released news of their latest expansion and I’m definitely excited. Hero classes sound entertaining. There are several players trying to pass it off as a new and original concept. even though it has already been heavily delved into in Ragnarok Online, FFXI, and eariler than that in Dungeouns & Dragons. I’m sure there are other MMO’s I’ve missed or can’t remember that have done it too.
I have about 20 days to create a program I’ve been meaning to make for this year’s PAX that will let me post live stats on current wireless gaming tournaments, but I’m not even sure I’m in there yet so it may be a wasted effort. I want to be finished with the new layout by then too so I can integrate it into the site.
