I don’t get much sunlight – which is pretty obvious. Maybe your computer does get sunlight, even though it really shouldn’t. You need to be aware that the color on your screen will be seen by your eyes differently, according to light in the room. You need to calibrate your monitor.

I’m monitoring one simple keyword that I’m quite attached to – my last name. This isn’t being done by any kind of software you have to install. It’s being done by a web site that allows me to choose keywords to monitor on Twitter.

Red has been my favorite color pretty much since birth. Color is important.

The first time I ever plugged a second monitor into my system, it was interesting. Of course, issues arose… as is usually the case with anything new.
