definitely a monday
It's a technologically frustrating day today. We upgraded to Internet Explorer 7, and for whatever reason, I am unable to have multiple IE windows open simultaneously. Every time I select "open in new window" from the menu, the page opens in the current window. Bah. So, I've started using Firefox and the transition has been really smooth. And heck, Firefox appears to have a built-in spell check function! Whee!
My other complaint is that ever since we installed Google Earth, I have been getting an error message every time I try to upload photos from my digital camera. I imagine that this is just an unlucky coincidence, but I'm still a little resentful. Mind you, Google Earth is rather cool to play around in. Chris and I managed to identify our house in Calgary - the map even showed our back alley and the foot path that has been worn into the green space behind our garage! The image here shows the part of St. John's that we're currently living in. We're the red dot. Not a lot of houses in this part of town. Quidi Vidi Lake is the body of water to the left, and Quidi Vidi Harbour is to the north of our home, and the ocean is the blue stuff to right, both north and south. It's what we used to be able to see out our back window before an embarrassingly monstrous house was built next to us this past summer ... Anyway, I am still grumpy about the issue between my camera and my computer's USB ports ...

I hate when equipment doesn't play well together.
