Microsoft Synctoy 2.0

Now people, this is why Microsoft is lambasted when it comes to operating systems. 

I belive in having a religious backup routine for my data as I've lost everything in the past.  I like to have all my data on hand so I can go from one computer to another incase the HDD fails or a virus is caught, or heaven forbid, the laptop is lost.  So, I've taken to backing up my personal data once a month.

I used to burn to CR-RW, then moved to DVD-RW, and currently use an 8GB USB stick to backup one folder on my HDD that has all personal files on it.  It takes a while to erase the old data off the stick and put a fresh copy of the current folder on their for safe keeping.

Lo and behold, Microsoft has a "toy" that allows for syncing any number of folders and directories to any removable media!  Synctoy 2.0!  To get it you have to go to the microsoft website and download and install it.  It works great, is free, and lets you sync anything to anything else with loads of syncing options and no restrictions on number of files/folders/ect that come with most free options.  Like the iPod, it only transfers any changes made to the home folder, not the whole damn thing.  Convenient as all hell, but why should I have to go out to another website to get it?

Now I ask you Micro$oft, why did you not just put this little gem as part of the operating system?!  Windows is so bloated with crappy underpowered versions of software (Movie Maker? Defrag? WinZip?) I can find for free on the internet that do a much better job.  I am still devoted to XP, fucking HATE Vista, and MIGHT go to Windows 7 after they release the first major service pack. 

So Microsoft, what else are you holding back?  You have a bad history of keeping the really good stuff (Microsoft PLUS! pack for XP), so why not let it all come out, streamline the install size and time of the operating system, and let people use/ know about all the good stuff you have?

RadioFreeG-Episode42-DeadCelebrities

Episode 42-DeadCelebrites, of RadioFreeG is up and running!  Get it now by clicking on the link below:

This Episode looks at the new "Michael Jackson" song "This Is It".  Yes, the quotes are around "Michael Jackson" becasue it was put together through studio magic after his death!  It is not a true reflection of Michael Jackson, and has nothing to do with the body of completed work he left this world.  It is part of a disturbing trend in music, movies, and life in general to manipulate the dead through the technology of the day instead of using that effort to create the next batch of artists and make the memories of tomorrow.

To buck this trend, we have the new song from our friends "I Am Three", and the song is called "OLDER".  They were gracious enough to grant RadioFreeG Permission to play this great new music for you!  SEND YOUR NEW MUSIC (in mp3 format)  to RadioFreeG@gmail.com and it will be featured in an upcoming episode!  Tell your friends, tell your family, and tell your enemies to submit their favorite new music to RadioFreeG!

Stop the HST - RFG Episode 40!

This is a special episode dedicated to shedding light on the facts of why HARMONIZED SALES TAXES only work to SCREW the CONSUMER - AND YOU ARE THE CONSUMER!

Download the latest show by clicking below, and SUBSCRIBE, SUBSCRIBE, SUBSCRIBE using iTUNES by clicking on the show logo!


The province of Ontario will be moving to an HST structure in July of 2010. The current Liberal government cannot really be blamed for making this move, as it is to their benefit, helps businesses, and broadens the provincial tax base all in one fell swoop.

BUT, IT IS NOT IN THE INTEREST OF THE TAXPAYER! YOU WILL BE GETTING SCREWED SO HARD AND FAST BY THIS BLATANT CASH GRAB IN THE NEAR FUTURE YOUR HEAD WILL SWIM!

Long time listeners will know I have no leanings towards one political party. The Provincial Liberals, Conservative, and even New Democratic Parties are all playing a role in this disaster. We take them all to task. We call upon you to think about the effect the terrible HST will have on you, and make your voice heard!

RadioFreeG-Episode39-ExecutivePay

After an extended holiday break RagioFreeG is back with episode 39! Download by clicking on the link below, or SUBSCRIBE in iTunes by clicking on the show logo in the sidebar:


Today we look at the executive pay capping taking place in the United States. President Barack Obama recently initiated the process that high level executives cannot be properly compensated for their work. No one is going to shed tears over bankers having to take a pay cut, but the overarching issue here is DEADLY.

How can companies be expected to retain talent when those with talent know they cannot participate fully in the gains they create for the firm? This is terrible for firms everywhere. The consequences are dire. Oddly enough, they best example to illustrate this is not in the United states, but right here at home in Canada. Specifically, the fiasco of the compensation of the Canadian Imperial Bank of Commerce CEO Mr. Gerry McCaughey.

We have a quick recap of why the financial mess began with an explanation of Asset Backed Commercial Paper, the fundamental interconnectedness of banks through their assets, (YOUR mortgage DEBT), and finally to the extension of this economic turmoil by not adhering to the basic principle of Western Capitalism: Bad companies making bad business decisions SHOULD BE ALLOWED TO FAIL!

All the best, All for you, SUBSCRIBE,SUBSCRIBE, SUBSCRIBE to RadioFreeG!

Auto Insurance drive you to Suicide?

My goodness, time marches on, and so does RadioFreeG! Episode 38 is waiting for you by clicking on the link below, (or, make it easy and SUBSCRIBE in iTunes!),


This is a crazy show and may be the one that gets me finally thrown off the G-Band. Why? Because I advocate blatant non-observance of the law for your own self-interest!

I start by examining the silly car insurance laws in Ontario, Canada, and why those bastard insurance companies have you over a barrel no matter what you do. YOU CAN'T WIN WITH INSURANCE COMPANIES, UNLESS YOU SUBVERT THE FAULTY SYSTEM! I tell you about my personal history, and what NOT to do, if something terrible should befall you in the future. With so many bad drivers out there it is not a question of "IF" you will be involved in an incident with your car, but "WHEN"!
Second, the latest installment of "Tech Talk with Soundwave" is here! (Catch him at dontcrossthestreams.blogspot.com.) Soundwave delves into the alphabet soup that is digital picture formats. If you post photos anywhere online (e.g., Facebook, Flickr, Picasa), you NEED to hear this!


I ran across a news item that is one of the saddest I've read in a long time. A young man took his own life for no apparent reason. He did it live on the interweb while people mocked his cooling corpse until police broke down the door and turned off his webcam!!

Holy shit! You need to LISTEN NOW!

YOU CANNOT AFFORD TO MISS THIS, THE BEST, (AND POSSIBLY
LAST EVER EPISODE), OF RadioFreeG!

RadioFreeG #37 - EllisTechTalk

Once again, another super-fantastic episode of RadioFreeG is available for your listening pleasure! Download the show by clicking on the link below, or SUBSCIBE in iTunes by clicking on the show logo, or searching for “RadioFreeG” in iTunes, and make new shows show up AUTOMATICALLY! Never miss another show again!


LINda Ellis, LinDA Ellis, Linda ELLis, LINDA ELLIS!! Why does this name keep coming up when I make a new show? RadioFreeG Episode 37 deals with my continued attempts to enlighten the WORLD about how this person conducts “business”. Her poem, "The Dash", is a wonderful piece of writing, examining the fleeting nature and beauty of life. Too bad it makes some people pray for death.

Yet another email has come to my attention stating Ms. Ellis is once again HARRASSING some poor soul that had the misfortune of admiring a piece of poetry and did not have the chance to properly credit the author and give credit where it is due.

I take Ellis Corp. to task and ask for some recognition of my own! (To document the history of this show, please see the links to prior episodes at the bottom of this post. Also, check out quantumenterprises.co.uk while listening to this episode to see why Ms. Ellis should take some of her own advice when it comes to doling out recognition!)


Also, this is the WORLD PREMIERE of “TECH TALK with SOUNDWAVE”! EXCLUSIVE TO RadioFreeG, the soon to be #1 podcast for all your technology needs. Find out more about the show by hitting dontcrossthestream.blogspot.com.

Only the best, only for the Faithful Listenership – Soundwave, welcome to the RadioFreeG family! Excelsior!

Will the USA Financial Disaster Affect Canada?

In this show we look at the USA credit and banking debacle that is quickly threatening to turn the USA into a have-not, past its prime, "super"-power on the world stage.



Banks are closing down left, right and center, and Big Brother has to come in and give lots of public cash to private institutions that could NOT do their job properly to save them from themselves! Does anyone else think that that land of the free and home of the brave, the bastion of rugged individualism should NEVER let this come to pass?!

We examine the issue from a Canadian perspective, and try to determine why the shit will hit the fan in Canada, (even though lots of people within Canada say it could never cripple this country like it did the USA).


Get the show by Clicking below (and PLEASE SUBSRCIBE IN iTUNES, It is just easier for everyone involved!)
