So you might have noticed the Twitter bar on the left side of our blog. You also may have gotten a Twitter invite in your email from me recently (hee hee hee). You also might be asking yourself “What IS Twitter?” What is it exactly? From the Twitter FAQ: “Twitter is a service for friends, [...]

New Photos Section!

Tech,photos 28 February 2008 | 5 Comments

We’ve added a new section to TeamEspinoza.com – in the pages section in the upper right corner of your browser you’ll now see “Photos.” Although we have used Gallery for a while, we never warmed up to it as an application.  The default theme is ugly and it suffers from an excessive amount of features.  [...]

What Does Your TiVo Say About You?

Tech,life 26 February 2008 | 8 Comments

Amanda was flipping through our Now Playing list on our TiVo and in a sarcastic voice said, “‘Yo Gabba Gabba’. ‘The Dave Ramsey Show’. ‘Purple Rain’. What does your TiVo say about you?” It was a funny quip, but the truth is that my TiVo says more about me than just that I am a [...]

I seriously love del.icio.us and I use it all the time. Del.icio.us is an easy way to bookmark all your favorite webpages online in one place. Sometimes I come across a site or a webpage that I will want to come back to later, so I will tag the page. You can tag pages when [...]

What the Heck is RSS?

I wrote this article for another blog and thought that I would share it here. It covers what RSS is, how to use it, and asks “Is RSS really that great?” You may have noticed the little RSS icon on many websites with a statement that usually says, “Subscribe to My Feed.” The icon is [...]

10 Minute Email

General,Tech 14 August 2007 | 1 Comment

Have you ever not wanted to give out your real address on a website? Have you ever had to input your email address into a registration and be sent a verification email to complete the registration process? We can’t always control what sites do with our email address (i.e. give to spammers). That is where [...]

Holy cow. What a great day. Amanda and Annabelle came downtown for lunch, and we headed up to the La Cantera Apple Store. Annabelle dreaming of an iMac of her very own. While there I got to buy a little something special: That’s right JD: Pretty Picture Box!!! Here’s the guy about to take my [...]

New Server

Tech 26 August 2006 | 0 Comments

If you’ve noticed that our theme is rather, well, blah, it’s because we’re in the middle of transferring to a different server and updating the theme for the website is lower on the task list. Soon enough i’ll update the theme and TeamEspinoza.com will look a lot better. UPDATE: Got just about everything re-installed.  What [...]

New Phones!

General,Tech 13 August 2006 | 0 Comments

Both Amanda and I were sportin’ three year old flip phones (mine was down to the last hinge) so since our contract with Sprint is expiring soon we decided to try out another carrier and get a pair of new phones. After some online research and a few store visits we decided on T-Mobile and [...]
