Depending on what browser and resolution you are using, you may find that your content (such as blog posts) which have embedded videos are running over your blog post area. You COULD change your stylesheet, but if everything works except for embedded Youtube videos, an easier answer might be to change the width of the Youtube player. This is super easy to do.First you need to find a video that you want to use. ;-) Not all Youtube videos are embeddable and many copyrighted ones are not.

I decided to start digging out some of my old stuff that I either 1)haven't posted here before, or perhaps, 2)I posted it 5 years ago, but it is still relevant or 3) it is super popular (on twitter, on a blog, etc.) which makes me think it is worth a re-post. I promise my site is not about to become a re-hash and just like for the Question of the Day, these will have their own category and header.

So, this was MY question today: as in, I wanted to re-post a tweet about moonshine arts & literary magazine. I couldn't quite remember what I wrote and I didn't use a #hashtag. So what to do? How do you search your own twitter feed? There are lots of cool trending tools out there, but those are very limited in terms of timeframe. I personally like trendtastic.Per my usual M.O. I tweeted, buzzed, & facebook'd my request --even before I google'd, now what does that tell ya?

A question asked by one of my coworkers (and you all thought I just answered social media, opensource, or database questions, right? LOL)Q: How does a phone text to email? Does the computer have to have anything magic?A: You can text to any email system. It's the phone that has the magic. Each texting phone (which is just about every cell phone except for a few REALLY old ones) has an email address attached to the phone number, so it's essentially email to email. SMS (short message service) = texting, which is based on really old GSM (Global System Messaging) which was back with early cells.

I'm sure you have noticed people twittering during conferences that you have attended. This is an interesting article comparing google wave to twitter, in terms of how can be used to record and participate in a conference.

So, this should be super easy if ALL of the photo albums in Facebook work the same way but they do not (What?!?! ... )In the Profile Photos album, there is no way to move a photo to a different album....

There are a few different ways to download a video from facebook, none of which are built in to facebook. You can dig around in the internet cache for (IE) or Firefox or if you use Firefox you can add this wonderful little GreaseMonkey script that creates a download link right at the video in facebook. Whoa, now that is cool.

So, I had the dreaded stuck "hand" tool in MXFireworks 2004 (yeah, I know, way behind, I work for the govt....) where I absolutely could do nothing except move around using the hand tool.After much googling, here are the responses I came up with (and I now share in hopes of helping somebody else) :The first three are duhs, which didn't work for me ;-)Turn off conflicting software/clear memory
