Move to OpenOffice.org 2.1 NOW!

If you have taken my advice and moved to OpenOffice… be sure to download and install the new version (V2.1) immediately! There is a serious security issue with earlier versions that has been patched in V2.1. Do yourself a favor… upgrade today!

An Update – The Million Dollar Home Page – Sold Out!

Million Dollar Home PageBack on the Dr. Bill Podcast number 2, I reported on the Million Dollar Home Page, where a guy was trying to “work his way through college” by selling a pixel on his web site page for a dollar each. I predicted that he wouldn’t do it because his “fifteen minutes of fame” would be up before he did it. Well, I was WRONG! He did sell out! So, he is now an Internet millionaire! Dewd!
