I haven't posted much this week... busy catching up from vacation. But, I've also been _orking on my pet project... details about blogs. I've been throwing every blog link I can find into my Favorites folder, most of them more for the use of people in various industries I come across. But, some of the names are rather ambiguous, so I've imported the list of 90 (yes, ninety) CAD-Design-Programming related blogs into a spreadsheet and am in the process of listing the industry and programs used of all of the posters.A minor bit of trivia is that this...

Well, I'm back from London
Posted on 10:12 by Unknown
Alright... I'm back ~dusts off desk... (except the telephone... those messages can wait a couple more minutes)~I know, last summer when I went, and the weather was 75%%d and sunny, and my BH assured me it was always like that... wasn't going to last. Our first day there, we took my little one with some friends to some castle grounds for Easter festivities... it rained... his shoes were sooo muddy. You could tell I was the ignorant tourist, as all of the other children were readily equipped with little rubber boots. We went round to the shops soon...

I'm gone for a few days
Posted on 10:31 by Unknown
I'll be leaving for a trip tomorrow morning. I probably won't be signing on to make any posts until I return to _ork.Remember to keep learning, and giving back to the CAD community!To piggyback on my post the other day about newsgroup behaviour, I'll add a link from the DWF guy (Scott Sheppard) giving tips on best uses for the Autodesk Discussion Groups. Be sure to peruse his blog for some updates on new DWF technology and some uses (like dwf underlay or sectioning 3d dwf'...

Newsgroup Guidelines for Newbies
Posted on 12:20 by Unknown
Newsgroups for N00bsOkay, maybe not just for newbies, but also for people that just don’t use them frequently… The below tips are just some advice from me to you that will make your newsgroup experience nicer and much more productive.(I’m writing these guidelines with the assumption that you’re going to be in a quasi-professional newsgroup or forum such as Autodesk Discussion Groups, AUGI or similar.)Signing upUse a free email account (yahoo or hotmail) on groups where your contact information might be shown. An ounce of prevention is worth a pound...

Autodesk does a little more for FM and Collaboration
Posted on 15:16 by Unknown
Autodesk has recently acquired a product called Constructware, that is a collaboration tool which has been used in Facilities Management (and other fields, I know, but, anything FM-geared from Autodesk, like their recent acquisition of FM Desktop just tickles me pink).I can't help feeling a bit like the red-headed step child of the AEC industry. Facility managers seem to be viewed as sort of a necessary evil. We're difficult to work with, either too demanding, or too passive.
