Toshiba Portégé 7200 - My notebook, used for HTML, javascript, and php programming. Also for testing layouts and scripts.
Cameras:
Konica Minolta Dimage Xg - My current camera which I carry with me nearly at all times. It's literally smaller than my wallet. Very slick.
Nikon Coolpix 2500 - My previous camera. Upgraded since it wasn't as compact as I wanted and because pictures in low light were blurry.
Olympus C-2000 Z - My older camera. It has some features which my newer camera lacks which include a remote control, a viewfinder, and panoramic mode.

Web stats:
DreamHost web hosting - Good combination of services with a reasonable price; they pay for one domain registration if you host your site for a full year. If you use me as reference (user id bluedragon), I get a 10% kickback!
Guestbook:
DreamBook guestbook server - by far the most configurable guestbook server I've found and free (with ads) and without ads if you host your site with DreamHost.
Search engine:
FreeFind intrasite search engine - This is great if you keep an online journal and want to search by either names or keywords. And as the name suggests it's free.
Web stats:
Site Meter - Tracks site hits, search engine hits, and even navigation. And it's free.
