Connected Feeling
I need to find people that I can be friends with that are interested in writing/blogging often. I don’t feel very connected to many of the people in my life because I don’t communicate the same way that they do, and it has become a serious issue for me. You’d…

In a recent post (Authoring a DVD That Works), I was having issues creating a DVD for a co-worker, and as usual, my copy of Nero saved the day. I didn’t even notice the option to burn a movie DVD, and what’s even better is that the software can transcode…
