Recently we have been using DropBox for shared file storage within our company. What’s the problem? We only have 2 gigs of storage for the whole company. The other problem is that we work with graphic designers who like to send 100 meg photoshop files. So anyway, recently we started running out of storage and needed to delete things. We looked around and found a tool called WinDirStat which visually shows you how your storage is being allocated for a drive or even a folder. It makes it easy to find huge files and delete them quickly. We purged about 20 files (out of several thousand) and freed up 800 megs. If you are interested in using it yourself just Google WinDirStat and you should find it.
Okay, I’m (Joel) actually 6′ 4″ tall so I’m not exactly micro but I am a micro manager. I know it but I still do it. Check this article out if you are a micro-manager or if you are micro-managed. If you work here at Switchbox accept my apologize. http://www.leadershipcourseware.com/blog/general/7-steps-to-overcome-the-addiction-of-micromanagement/

Thanks to Shauna for finding these great photo galleries. All galleries use jQuery and some use PHP for the backend.

We’re going back to Tech Columbus for more funding for another startup. So far we’ve helped launched six successful IT startups, four had partial funding from Tech Colmbus, and two were partially funded by us. This will probably be the fifth from Tech Columbus. We offer VC funding to anyone with a good idea who is willing to work hard to launch their IT idea. Send us your biz plan if you think it’s good enough.

I’m using Cobal version 1.13 on an Atari 2600 for the database backend and my cell phone running a boot legged copy of Windows ME as my webserver. My internet is provided by a TCP/IP tunnel running through an unmonitored socket on Battle.net. It’s all being powered by a carbon neutral generator made out of a cardboard box, a hamster wheel and soybeans. Yeah, I’m that good.
