Welcome to TechProceed

I just came across the transcript of a graduation commencement address that  Steve Jobs  delivered to the Stanford University class of 2005.  Certain parts of this speech strongly coincide with the underlying message in my previous post.  Beyond that, it provides some exceptional first hand advice from a man who followed his heart and intuition in pursuit of what he loved in life… and he came out on top.  The  full commencement address  is definitely worth a quick read.  Here are a couple excerpts that initially caught my attention: “Remembering that I’ll be dead soon is the most important tool I’ve ever encountered to help me make the big choices in life. Because almost everything, all external expectations, all pride, all fear of  embarrassment or failure - these things just fall away in the face of death, leaving only what is truly important. Remembering that you are going to die is the best way I know to avoid the trap of thinking y...

Click here to have fun !!   Today marks the birthday of Google. In celebration of such an important holiday among internet users, the Google homepage consists of a Google logo made up of bouncing dots and balls. They just aren’t your normal Google balls though. They are interactive with the a user’s mouse pointer. If you hover over the word “Google” the balls will spread away from your mouse pointer. Once the mouse is placed away from the balls, they will slowly morph back into the shape of the word “Google”. Is there a point to the animated Google logo? Probably not much more than to celebrate their birthday. However they are also utilizing some HTML 5 and CSS3 elements, which they hope will be the future of the internet. Also, the bouncing Google balls are from a Google Doodle. You can see more Google doodle logos at http://www.google.com/logos/ Happy Birthday Google! Where would the internet be without you?

How to edit the windows registry Editing the Windows registry can most easily be accomplished through the REGEDIT program built into Windows. This can be accessed by going to start\run\ and typing ‘regedit.’ Due to the nature of the registry, any changes you make here do not have to be saved. All changes are applied upon restarting the system. This also means that there is no ‘cancel’ button for undoing accidental changes, so make sure you keep careful note of the values you intend to edit. Registry values are stored in keys which appear as folders in the REGEDIT window. Most of the following instructions will have you add or edit values inside these keys. When you highlight a key in the left pane, the values stored in it appear in the right pane. To edit a value, right  click it and select ‘modify.’ To add a new value, navigate to the key in which you wish to add the value, right clock it and select ‘new’ then the type of value you wis...
