These are software applications and/or utilities that I have written. The list is pretty short at this point, but will grow with time.

If you are looking for software utilties and tools that I use on a regular basis and recommend, please see my Tools & Software list.

In my years as a systems engineer I have written many batch scripts (.cmd), vb scripts (.vbs) and transact sql (t-sql) scripts. You will find some of these and code snippets in blog posts filed under the 'code: xyz' categories. Peruse them at your leisure.

  1. dateUrPix
  2. : is a tool that renames your pictures by adding the date the picture was taken to the beginning of the file name.

    For example, it will take CIMG1309.jpg and rename it to 20051030.CIMG1309.jpg, assuming that the picture was taken October 30th, 2005.

    Details: dateUrPix reads the EXIF metadata attached to your digital photos (.jpg & .bmp) by the camera. It extracts the 'Date Picture Taken' and munges that to the format of YEARMONTHDAY. For example, October 30th, 2005 would look like 20051030. This is then prepended to the beginning of the file name.

  3. getSpaces: is a backup tool designed to work with MSN (Windows Live) Spaces. It has 3 primary purposes:
    • Backup posts from a Space to a XML file on your local hard drive.
    • Upload posts from a XML file (created by getSpaces) on your local hard drive to a Space or completely different blogging software that uses the MetaWeblog API.
    • Copy posts directly from a Space to another Space or completely different blogging software that uses the MetaWeblog API.
