For the past week or so I’ve been without a reliable internet connection. But now, I’m proud to say we have a reliable means of digital communication!

Now that I can get on the web I can get back to work on my Nintendo DS development and tutorial writing.

For those of you who I know are waiting on my tutorials keep in mind that the devkitPro website contains a good many tutorials in their FAQ and Setting Up websites (which I will be citing information from). So if you just can’t wait to get up and running, I highly suggest visiting their site.

I knew this day would come, but I never would have guessed it would come so quickly. I guess the old saying is true. Time really flies when you’re having fun.

That’s right folks. I’ve finished my studies and passed my exams. I’m officially a college graduate! (Real world beware…)

You may hear yourself asking: “Wait a second, Joe graduated a month ago! Why is he posting now? He must be really lazy.”

Better Late than Never.

Well you’re wrong! I am lazy, but that’s not why I’m graduating now. As part of my final studies I was fortunate enough to be involved in multidisciplinary project run through the Information Technology department under a course named “Innovation and Invention“. Because I am a Computer Science graduate, and because my successful graduation hinged on completing a final computer science elective, I was forced to enroll in the aforementioned totally awesome class as a “computer science independent study”.

I’ve just been clued into a new(?) advertising campaign created by my personal favorite word processing software producer OpenOffice.org.

Apparently the buzz is that with Microsoft’s new clamp down on pirated software, and schemes to implement pirate detecting software into new versions of their operating system and business software, that the best way to convince people to switch is by convincing them to “get legal”.

So without further adieu, I present to you OpenOffice.org’s Get Legal campaign.
