Google Chrome OS Preview
I recently had the opportunity to
preview Google's upcoming netbook operating system, Chrome OS, for
InformIT.com. It's an interesting
operating system, essentially an operating for cloud-based apps and
docs. You can
read
the full article here.

Microsoft Security Essentials E-Book
Microsoft
has a great free anti-malware program available, called Microsoft
Security Essentials (MSE). But it doesn't come with much documentation,
which is a problem. That's why I wrote a Digital Short Cut (e-book)
titled
Microsoft Security Essentials User Manual. You can
purchase and download it for just $4.99 from the
InformIT website.
Computer Outlook Radio Talk Show
Just a reminder that I'm a regular
monthly guest on John Iasiuolo's Computer Outlook Radio Talk Show out of
Las Vegas. I guest the third Thursday of every month; the show airs at
5:00 p.m. Las Vegas time, 8:00 p.m. on the east coast. You can
listen in online at the
Computer Outlook website.

I'm specially fond of my music books, as
they bring me back to my roots. This is certainly the case with my most
recent music book, The Complete Idiot's Guide to Playing Percussion.
This is a companion book to my very first music book,
The Complete
Idiot's Guide to Playing Drums. While the drums book focused
exclusively on snare drum and drum set, this new book is an overview of
all the instruments in the percussion family, from timpani and marimba
to congas and tablas. It's an ideal book for drummers looking to expand
their horizons, or for composers and arrangers who want to learn more
about writing for percussion instruments. It comes with an accompanying
audio CD that contains examples of more than 50 different percussion
instruments, so you'll know how they're supposed to sound.
