Ah, the good old days. When you could find a job in a day or two. Sometimes within hours. 2009, on the other hand, sucks big time.

Great hotkey program–Autohotkey

I found this through PC Mag about a year ago, and have been using it ever since. Autohotkey is free, and does several great things, which I illustrate here:

• Categories

  • Business
  • Contracting
  • Family
  • Mainframe
  • Owner
  • Vacation
  • Vacation Archives

• Recent Posts

  • Cancun, 2006
  • Orestes, A Tragic Romp
  • Jordan could replace Leno
  • A new direction on the job hunt
  • This flowcharting tool will surprise you

• My soapbox

  

  My profession is mainframe programming, but I dabble in web work, too, hence this blog. There’s a business side and a family side–look to the right and you’ll see categories that will guide you down each path. On the business side, I’ll cover material on mainframes, independent contracting, web gizmos, and anything else that I find interesting about said subjects.
