What was that? Your Zune stop working today?
December 31st, 2008
There are rampant reports going all around today of the 30 GB model Zune freezing and not working at ALL today. Well, a user over at the Gizmodo forums has gone and given instructions on how to fix the currently dead Media Player:

Reader Neil has just told us a DIY solution to revive Zune 30s killed by the Zunepocalypse until Microsoft gets back with an official fix. It requires some slight disassembly, but nothing too complicated.
Follow Rapid Repair’s guide
to taking your Zune apart to step 4, so you have access to the hard
drive and the battery. Disconnect BOTH the battery and hard drive, and
then plug ‘em back in. This apparently resets the Zune’s internal
clock, which brings it back to life. Put it back together, and it
should be 100 percent again. (Assuming you don’t screw it up.)
The risk here is that we’re not sure how attempting this DIY fix
will play into what Microsoft’s solution is. Like, if for some reason
you’ve gotta send it in to Microsoft, this might screw up your warranty
situation. But, at least you’ll have a working Zune sooner, rather than
later. Thanks Neil!
Holiday Season, New Clients, Awesome finds…
December 23rd, 2008
Well, it’s the holiday season, and whoopdee do, and hickory dock!
After several transitions, moving our office, gaining new clients, losing one client, and so on and so forth, it’s fine time we posted to our blog. We would like to first say Happy Holidays to all of our visitors! This is Evince’s first Christmas and we think it’s a splendid one! The economy may be tanking faster than…well..something that tanks fast, but we still see the strength in our community as more businesses are staying vigilante in their efforts to keep our economy going. We have acquired a number of clients in the past few months including (and in no particular order):
-Collier Construction Management
-Jones Creek Golf Club
-CSRA Commercial & Residential
-whatineedtobe.com
-Augusta’s Choice
-Augusta’s Voice
-Debbie Eichman (Realtor)
-Adams Construction
-TPG Enterprises (Voice Over Sessions)
-ETSI Consulting
If I’ve missed any of you, I apologize. Some of the clients listed above are not web design customers, as we have officially branched into Print Marketing as well as Voice Talent work. Some of our other projects are now based on our Content Management Offerings now. Yep, that’s right. We now offer sites that you can manipulate yourselves! What’s that you say? You want to get in on that action? Drop us a line today and we’ll be happy to give you a free consultation!
And on one last side note… Found this from a friend of mine, Eden Soto (please check this guy out… his work is PHENOMENAL). Something for the holiday spirit!
