I accidentally deleted all of my Gmail contacts with my Android phone…
…but this is why I use Gmail instead of, say, Hmail or Ymail. I restored all 1,000+ of my contacts by logging into Gmail on a PC and doing the following: Click Contacts. From the More actions drop-down menu, choose Restore contacts. Choose the time you’d like to revert your contacts list to (e.g. 10 minutes ago, one hour ago, one week ago, etc). We suggest that you also make a note of the time that you restore your contacts, in case you’d like to return to where you started. Click Restore. You’ll see a confirmation at the top of the screen when the rollback is complete. You can perform a restore from up to…

USB 3.0 in full matzofrackin effect!
We’re leaving for the US tomorrow night, so I’m preparing a full data backup of our most important work plus digital photos that now number in the hundreds of thousands and date back 14 years or so. It all adds up to less than a terabyte because I store the big files like RAW format photos and midget elephant tentacle pr0n elsewhere. So the backup method I started from our last trip back home is to copy everything to an external HD and store it at our home in the states – it’s a pretty ideal offsite storage solution. I went to buy a 2.5″ USB hard drive at the…

The Toyota “Kujira” Crown, Reborn
After five months of being held hostage by a rogue body shop, a brief return home, and then a serious accident caused by a negligent repair shop, the Kuj has returned. These are the kinds of photos I really wanted to take before the accident, but I never had the chance. The body shop to which the work was outsourced did a good job – they pounded out parts I thought would be impossible to save, and finished the job slowly while looking for parts. Only one rare part was totally lost – the lower right front turn signal lens and frame. The shop returned the car to me apologizing…

Tuesday was Max’s last day of school, and he’s not going to summer school since we’re visiting the US in a couple weeks, so he’s been hanging out with daddy. So far today we’ve gone to the playground at daddy’s university and eaten a big bag of deep fried duck wings.

Screenshots with HTC Desire HD
My Desire HD, which is running original (non-rooted) Orange system software, was recently updated to Android 2.3.5 (Gingerbread) and HTC Sense 3.0. Along with all the UI improvements and improved battery performance came a very cool feature: The ability to capture screens built into the system. To capture a screen (take a screenshot) with an updated Desire HD, hold down the power button while pressing the Home key. By default, the phone will make a camera shutter sound to let you know it captured the screen. This same procedure will work on some other updated (Android 2.3.5, HTC Sense 3) HTC phones, and apparently on Apple iPhones as well (which…

Your internet pass is revoked
Some pimply-faced expert got in my face about the educational value of e-learning: “What’s wrong with books? Don’t you know what books are? Books are like the internet printed on paper!” Just, wow.
