12.19.2009 - Terrence Marks:
Two technical questions, if someone can lend a hand:
I'd like to create Facebook and/or Myspace pages for our comics. I'm strictly a web 1.0 kind of guy. I code the sites in a text editor. I'm still kind of suspicious of inline frames.

I don't really know what I can do with these sites. What kind of awesome stuff would you, the readers, like to see there? At the moment, I don't see what the fuss is about since we have our own website. Then again, I didn't see what the fuss was about CDs until I noticed that none of the albums I liked were coming out on vinyl anymore.

So, what can I do with this fancy new media that's a better use of my time than updating You Say it First's cast page, or replying to your email, or (more likely) watching MST3K?

Secondly - and this is the more difficult one - I've got a hard drive that I need data recovered from. The drive is detected, but fails just about any test I can throw at it. I can't get a file listing off of it; at the moment, it's showing as a 1GB recovery partition (which is correct, and gets a file listing), 32GB raw FAT32 partition and 127GB of unpartitioned space (which is incorrect and should probably be one 159GB NTFS partition).I want to repartition it so that the two larger bits are together. I want to do this without losing the data. I've tried a few linux bootable drive recovery utilities, and have gotten far enough to realize that they can be dangerous if you're not sure what you're doing. I'm not sure what I'm doing. Suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
