The Workbench, Reloaded
http://ericsomething-tech.blogspot.com/
In Workbench, you will find all the geeky things that I have this tendency to write about, and then some. A few hacks. Maybe a review or two. Some stuff that makes you want to put on the ol' tinfoil hat. Some tech toys coming down the pike. Ways to make a computer that should have been retired functional again. My own garden of how-I-dunnits. It'll all be there.
