6/28/99
- Solarbotics will be down from June 30th to July 17. Heres the quote from their website:
"We'll be closed from June 30 to July 17-ish for our annual company shut-down / vacation. We're going to Telluride Colorado to host a private BEAM workshop at the Telluride academy, and then follow it up with a tiny vacation while down in the USA."
- My email seems to be working OK now. So I will be updating a lot more.

6/27/99 - ???
- Hey, I just got home from a rave. It was incredible but I'm REALLY tired and need to sleep. Anyways, my email isn't working properly because one of my friends from a long time ago was over and while I was out at the rave I think he tinkered with the email passwords or something. Actually, he messed with my whole computer (it's trying to load unknown devices). I hate when people mess with my computer... And then screw it up!

6/24/99
- I'm back. I've updated some pages and I'll do this even more throughout the day. Heres the list:
   About | beam-online FAQ - #16, 17, 18.
   Tutorials | Coloured Epoxy - Added 3d images.
- Got my voodoo 3 2000 today. It's pretty nice, I must say.

6/22/99
- I'm glad I updated a lot yesterday, because I won't be updating any pages today or maybe even tomorrow. I got a job making graphics for a web page! That should cover the cost of some new parts I hope.

6/21/99
- The beamzine (BEAM magazine I wrote about earlier) seems to have some web pages up so that you may submit articles. I will update the address as soon as www.beamzine.net comes online.
- Up dates galore! I didn't update too many pages, but lots of content. Here is a list:
   About section
   About | beam-online FAQ
   Components | Diodes
   Components | Relays
   Components | Schematic Symbols
   Components | Data Sheets
   Tutorials | How to Solder
   Links
- It seems that there might be a BEAM magazine that is published online. It will be great if it comes out! (I'll help if there is anything I can do.)

6/20/99
- It's my birthday! I got a new multimeter and it works a lot better then my old one. I also got lots of money. (Voodoo 3 is on its way.)
- Lots of updates should happen later today or tomorrow.

6/18/99
- Not much has happened lately. School is over now. I'm going to my dads this weekend because it's my birthday on sunday. So I won't be updating for a couple days.

6/16/99
- I updated some more pages. I know some info is wrong or not complete. I'm getting to that though. It's jsut that I want all the main pages to be done then I'll fine tune them.
- It's my second last day of school today! I might go in tomorrow but I'm not sure. It would be nice to say bye to friends.
- If you want to conact me through ICQ, my # is 965303. But please send me a message telling me who you are when you add me. I tend to delete people that I don't know.

6/15/99
- I got the Java IRC chat going, BUT it's not working very well at all. 90% of the time it doesn't work because of browswers and stuff. So you can try to use it at the #beam chat, but don't expect it to work.
- Mark Tilden will be on Extreme Machines on TLC this wednesday.

6/14/99
- I'm back from the server. Yes, my computer is back up online and running smoothly. I hope to get the rest of the pages finished soon.

- BEAM Trading post is up. Check it out.

6/10/99
- Solder burns the skin... badly!

6/8/99
- Crazy updates to this page. I mean CRAZY! I'm updating massive chunks of the page daily and it's really taking a lot to keep going. Please give me some feedback and tell me what you like, what you want changed, etc. Email me here

- Not much happening. The BEAM shaw shop is starting up.

6/6/99
- My computer is down, so I"m working from the server.
- I made a bunch of SE's over the weekend. Don't know why, just for practice I guess.
- The Yahoo BEAM club is trying to be moved over to IRC. The channel will be #beam on undernet. I'm trying to impliment a Java applet that will let you connect to IRC through this web page, but for now you can download mIRC.
- A LOT of updates to this site. It's coming along nicely and I hope that I have the energy to finish it by the end of June.

6/1/99
- RJP is still going along nicely. I hope it's done pretty soon though. Cause it's kind of boring working on that thing.
