I came across this video about how to make a wind turbine. He doesn’t go into much details, but it gives a good example of the basics of building your own wind turbine.

I couldn’t help but re-post this comic from XKCD ..
I’ve just converted the car seat from my ’96 Ford Escort (which is about to go to car heaven) into a ridiculously comfortable office chair !!!
I’ve been spending lots of time on the computer in the past year as it’s become my job, and my back started to ache on a regular basis.
I’ll be posting pictures here, in the meantime checkout the links below that show other people that have done the same.

(I haven’t forgotten about the solar installation blog post, I’ve just been busy … it’s coming !)
Solar Power is what makes techienation popular. Unfortunately ever since my original Solar Power Install there hasn’t been much to do. The system has been working fine. About 6 months ago they invested in a generator to top-up the batteries once in a while. (Which is hard to do with only 30 watts of panels)
Recently they’ve decided to invest more money on this system to make it MUCH bigger. (about 10 times bigger actually)
Stay tuned to see what they requested, and what I’m proposing based on these requests. (It’s great practice to understand how many solar panels and batteries you need for an off-grid solar power system)
Three years ago, I started this blog and a few other websites. After a while, I actually started making money ! So this is my “how to make money online” article that every blog seems to do at one point or another.
Don’t get me wrong, I’m not making Thousands of dollars a month. I don’t have a series of pictures showing you how much money I’m making and letting you know that you can do it to !! (If you purchase some overpriced book about how I did it that is) I don’t have a house with a giant garage filled with the most expensive cars. I DO however, make almost half my monthly income from my websites and the website maintenance of a few other people. All my spending money comes from online sources.
Here are three easy steps that are almost guaranteed to help YOU make money online.
Step 1 : Get a good idea for a website.
Step 2 : Buy the domain name and get web hosting space.
Step 3 : Spend the next 10 years learning html, PHP, Java, and SQL while continually updating your websites, adding content, erasing spam, working on SEO, and getting sponsors and advertisers.
That’s it !! At this point, you’re making money online !! Good for you !!! See how easy that was?
I run another website that is meant to finance the cost of hosting all my other non-profit sites, like this one.
If you work in a call center, then I’ve got something for you!
YOURmousepad.ca has a line of call center related mousepads for sale! These mousepads were specifically designed to use in call centers and are funny, motivating, and also demotivating. If you or a friend works in a call center, you should order yourself (or your friend) one of these mousepads ! They’re only 6 dollars, and it helps TechieNATION pay for it’s hosting!
The next 5 people that write a comment on this post will get free mousepads with whatever image you provide me printed on it and shipped to you, anywhere in the world.
Because of demotivationalpics.com (a website I inherited a couple of years ago) I’m equipped with a Heat Press and a printer with a bulk ink system. (I give-away demotivational mousepads during contests on this site) I currently have too many blank mousepads and transfer paper. (I’ve just launched a website about this : www.YOURmousepad.ca )
In your comment, please leave me your email so that I can contact you to get your shipping address, and the image you want printed on the mousepad.
….. I haven’t updated this site in a long time, I’m curious how long it will take for 5 people to take the time to read this article and comment. 
I have spent the last couple of days camping in oka with my lovely girlfriend Marina. I am still there actually and am writing this blog post from my cell phone!
As usual, we are having a great time! Using the list of camp grounds we rated last year, we picked lot 153 in the Dunes section this time. We can walk to the beach in about 3 minutes! It’s very secluded yet right next to the bathrooms…. Very handy!
The mosquitoes are out strong which has been irritating Marina a lot, but the racoons are slightly less annoying this year.
This is also the first time i get to use the screenhouse marina got me last year for my birthday!
Thats all for now, i may post more texts or pictures via my cell. I will be here for another 2 days!
Everyone that knows me is invited to Oka Beach on saturday june the 6th for my birthday! My cell will be on saturday to give people directions…. Hope to see u there!
Camping Season is back ! This year Marina and I reserved our camping spot at Oka National Park months in advance to make sure we get a spot we like. A few weeks before it’s time to leave, I realize I still don’t have a car to get there. It hardly seems worth renting a car for a full week, just to drive it TO camping and then back, so instead I bought a cheap car ! Strangely enough, one of the most exciting parts of this is the fact that I finally get to use my HAM RADIO Licence Plates that I received almost a year ago but never got to put on a car !! So YAY, my first Ham Radio ID’d car. (I should point out that here in Quebec, ONLY ham radio operators get customized licence plates with their call sign. Everyone else simply gets what they get.
