Wow - how are the bugs? Have you heard if they are worse/better at other times of the year?
Central America does not have many bugs. I saw the shadow of one flying outside and we saw one dead one in our luggage that came with us from Texas. That's it.
Oh wait, the girls found a small dead moth last night. That was it.
It's not like the US, no need for glass on the windows or screens. We were in Panama all that time and basically never saw a thing.
huh, I wonder why that is?

I have no idea. We thought that there would be tons of bugs, but there is not. Might be that they use tons of pesticides. Here on the Pacific coast you never see a bug. On the Caribbean coast, though, there are a lot and it is a health hazard - it's also the actual Mosquito Coast so.....

Pool guy just came and cleaned the pool. @dominica is standing in the pool now cooling off. It is warm here.

Reading the comments on ML mostly about Spiceworld while installing SQL Server <Wait> why the emoticons are gone

Emoticon just worked for you.

THe four year old just fell off of the hammock onto a tile floor. Ouch.

Ow, ow ow ow. That's always fun. My 4 year old gets in too big of a hurry and walks into door frames (even if the door is wide open, lol).
-
Trying out the free hosted Spiceworks. It would be nice if you could do a cname instead of the whatever.on.spiceworks.com

Yeah, I know how that is. My wife does that.

Why can't you do a CNAME pointed to that?
-
@johnhooks Let me know how that works... I thought about setting one up for myself... just haven't got around to it.

Wouldn't this require giving Spiceworks an admin level username and password for at least your workstations so they could inventory them? WMI?
-
@Dashrender At first glance, it looks like this is strictly helpdesk only.

CNAME is just an alias.

It is, NTG is the host for the full product, Spiceworks hosts the helpdesk only option. We work together on this. Their hosting is on Linux and is not the same code as the full product. They have no hosted scanning on their roadmap. Hosting a helpdesk puts them in competition with a lot of people that they needed to be. Hosted scanning would be a pretty massive undertaking.

hmm... I wonder where the value add for SpiceWorks to the vendors is? i.e. If I'm a new user to Spiceworks, they have no information on what equipment I'm using, one less thing to sell the vendors. Seems like a long term blow to SW bottom line.

They have lots of helpdesk-only users as it is already so that's their market. And a lot of their competition like ManageEngine has been taking a lot of their business by being free and hosted. They are in a market where if they don't go free and hosted, they are losing their biggest segment of users.
