Mrs. Mecomber’s Scrapbook

I’m enjoying discovering new blogs with Entrecards. I don’t use them for this blog, but I use them for my other blogs. Some blogs are real stinkers, but a wholesome amount of them are really great! An entire Entrecard subculture is springing up, looks like!

By far, the most popular Entrecarders are mom blogs. I’m a mom, but I am far past the baby cribs and baby foods stage. I prefer to surf the geek blogs! There’s a few very good ones I have discovered and bookmarked. From time to time, I hope to discuss them here.

The first one is a blog called the “Windows Vista Guide.” I remember when Windows XP first came out, a lot of people were confused over the new and altered settings, tweaks, and configurations. So a plethora of bloggers started “How To” blogs about XP. I have not seen many “How To” Vista blogs yet. Vista has been very slow to gain ground among computer users, so I suspect this is why websites about Vista haven’t taken off as much.

Nonetheless, XP won’t last forever! Here’s a great list of applications compatible with Windows Vista, from the same website I linked earlier. If you’ve got Vista, or are getting it, read as much as you can and that will make your transition much easier. Vista is quite different from XP, but I like it.
