New Yahoo Maps are Better Than Google!

  • 3 Nov, 2005

A beta version of the new Yahoo Maps is out. Not only is it good looking, it’s feature rich! It’s built with Flash and Ajax (I believe) and has all the pretty map images that Google Maps has and it has the ability to zoom in and out and drag around without reloading the page. […]

Powerpoint Tutorial – Bad Presentation

  • 3 Nov, 2005

Everyone is making PowerPoint presentations anymore and some are pretty good. Others, however, have some major issues. Recently Bill Gates gave a presentation that was done in PowerPoint and he’s a great example of what not to do. That is, unless you want a bad presentation. Here is what to do to have a bad […]

Too Cool for Internet Explorer

  • 2 Nov, 2005

I keep seeing some banners around that say “Too Cool for IE” and they give me a worm fuzzy feeling. 🙂 Well, I just found out that it’s not just one or two people, it’s a club! Basically, if you design a really cool site and it looks bad in Internet Explorer, just add this […]

Header Tags Without the Extra Space

  • 1 Nov, 2005

Have you ever put in a header tag (h1, h2, h3, h4, h5, h6) and struggle to get rid of the extra space underneath the tag? I do this all the time and I finally found the cure today. To get a header tag to be inline with the rest of the HTML code, just […]

PHP Find Variable in String

  • 27 Oct, 2005

Since I always try to remember what this PHP code is, and I can never remember, I thought I’d add it to my blog so I never forget. 🙂 This searches a string of text and finds a user defined variable. Very handy. $string = "PHP"; $container = "I love writing PHP code."; if(strstr($container,$string)) { […]

Earthlink is now supporting Firefox by putting out a theme and some tools. Now, if you don’t have Earthlink service, you might find the tools un-necessary., however, you can still install the Earthlink Firefox theme. I’m currently running it and it’s not to bad. Plus the tabs are a nice orange color for Halloween! Yes, […]

My Blog Is Worth A Lot!

  • 25 Oct, 2005

My blog is worth $12,984.42.How much is your blog worth? Someone has way to much time on their hands and created a tool that figures out how much a blog is worth. Inspired by Tristan Louis’s research into the value of each link to Weblogs Inc, I’ve created this little applet using Technorati’s API which […]

Romantic Comedy. With Zombies.

  • 24 Oct, 2005

If you haven’t seen Shaun of the Dead [iTunes] I highly recommend it. It’s one of my favorite movies! It’s a parody of Dawn of the Dead; only this time, they added a love story and some comedy. It’s very funny as two unlikely, and lazy, heroes have to try and survive as their town […]
