Moving bits

Nicholas Negroponte asserted that it was better to bits than atoms. The Gorse Fox has spent all day moving bits and it is both time-consuming and frustrating. The photo library and the music library took hours to shift. There was, of course, trouble with the printer sharing and trouble getting Microsoft Money to work on the recently moved files. Everything else was working fine, though Picasa's new face-identification seemed to loose the coordinates of the faces that it had already identified on the old machine.

Urban-cub is threatening Gorse Fox with another blitz on his study this weekend. That will involve moving some serious collections of atoms.
