GeekwithEnvy Classic

August 6, 2013 by Richard Vincenti Jr Leave a Comment

GWE Logo Small

Upon putting together some posts for older computers we realized that it may be helpful to access this website from one of those older machines. There is a bit of a problem however with newer websites on older machines, they just don’t work properly. There is just too much going on for older machines to process and even if the hardware is up to the task, the browser will likely not be.

There are also times where your connection speed may be less than optimal, perhaps in a deserted  post-apocalyptic town that has become overrun with zombies. In both of these circumstances a “basic” version of our website would be most useful. Enter GeekwithEnvy Classic.

The new subdomain is currently in beta and has very little content and is very incomplete, but we will be updating the site regularly. Currently, GWE Classic will only feature specific content from the main site, mostly things that pertain to older machines including, how-to’s, older software and guides.

The link to GeekwithEnvy Classic will be at the bottom of our this site in the site navigation menu. To access GWE Classic directly, head to http://classic.geekwithenvy.com.

Hope you find it useful!  (Suggestions on Content are Welcome) E-mail suggestions to support@geekwithenvy.com

Thanks,

-GWE Team-

Tested, A Whole Lot of Geekery

June 13, 2013 by Richard Vincenti Jr Leave a Comment

TestedLogo As a geek, I spend a lot of time not only creating and compiling content for our site but also enjoying content from others as well and today I thought I would take a moment to share with you one of my favorite places to visit on the web.

Tested.com is a website that covers technology, science, art and basically just awesome and geeky stuff in general. Tested was created by Will Smith and Norman Chan and now features Jamie Hyneman and Adam Savage from MythBusters. I am big fan of MythBusters and basically anything Adam and Jamie do in general. So you could only imagine that I would be extremely excited to see their involvement in the content of Tested.

The website isn’t the only content you can get from Tested, they also have a great YouTube page that is filled with great videos which range from getting a hands on look at the latest electronics, to going Inside Adam Savage’s Cave where you can witness the creative genius in action as he creates something amazing from nothing. Want to see the Hyneman in his natural habitat? Now you can by watching Inside Jaime’s Shop.

So, if you can’t seem to get enough geekery in your life ( and honestly, who couldn’t use a little more?) check out Tested.
