Movie Screensaver
I've gotten really bored with my screensavers. I think you can only look at the same pictures so many times. And now it's time to move on. I found a really cool program called MovieScreensaver 0.1. It plays movies through Windows Media Player that you have saved on your harddrive. It also gives some options on whether you want it to mute the volume and if you want the movie to start where it left off after you come back to your computer. Try it out. I've enjoyed it.
My only problem is that it hasn't been updated since September 19, 2002 and it has a few bugs. It seems to have problems if you put too many videos on the screensaver. One night I went to bed and got up and the screensaver had never come on and it somehow kept my monitor from going to standby. Other than that I've loved it.
Someone needs to work on this code. The author gives it to us on his website:

You should check out his site, he's developed a lot of different things (nothing too revolutionary).
Here's a direct link to the program:

Just read the ReadMe file and follow its instructions. It's really simple to get started.
Hope you enjoy.

I think your blog is going very well. And Dallas is not as bad as it could be. I should point out that I am making plans for leaving Texas soon though, as I have lived here my whole life.
