Zune Software Update

Posted by rblumer on Feb-6-2008 under Uncategorized

About a week ago I updated my Zune software to version 2.3. Unfortunately for me, the install failed and I could not use the Zune software for anything where I needed to login. I struggled for days to try to resolve this issue. Then two days ago I found a blog that suggested to turn on my Windows firewall during the installation process. I have no idea why the Windows firewall needed to be on but it resolved my installation issue.

Zune version 2.3 is installed and running happily on my Vista laptop!!

Update on Web Time Tracking

Posted by rblumer on Feb-6-2008 under Technology

A couple of weeks ago I wrote a post on a web time tracker tool called, Paymo. I have used this tool on a daily basis since I signed up to use this service and I love it. It has made my time tracking much easier both on a daily and monthly basis. It is very important to me to have a reliable and accurate service such as Paymo since I am an independent consultant that bills clients on an hourly basis.

The support has been second to none. I notified Paymo of an issue and it was resolved by the next day.

I highly recommend using Paymo for your time tracking needs.
