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)) { […]

Install the Earthlink Firefox Theme

  • 27 Oct, 2005

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, […]

I was able to attend the MIMA Summit today and it was a great event. It covered search engine optimization, web design, email marketing, brand protection and much more. It took place at the McNamara Alumni Center on the U of M Campus. If you’ve never seen this building you should take a peek at […]

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 […]

Truth In Advertising?

  • 22 Oct, 2005

If you ever thought that advertising lies, here is more proof. We went to Party America today and got some Halloween window silhouettes. The package comes with 2 giant decorations that are 33.5″ x 65″. I took them out and they are quite big; well window sized. On each is a cat and some bats. […]

Carmen Sandiego on Google Maps

  • 21 Oct, 2005

In case your $0.20 Carmen Sandiego didn’t arrive, you can go online and chase her down! Brewster Jennings Protects America partners Carmen Sandiego with Google Maps and it’s quite cool! Unless you can’t remember where someplace in the US is. OOps. I lost my first try. 😉 Check it out and have some fun.

Aren’t We Related?

  • 19 Oct, 2005

Some posts around here are related to others, while some posts just think their related to each other. Now, a new feature on my blog is Related Posts. You never know, you may have missed a good post from way back when. Now I don’t select who’s related and who’s not, so I had to […]

Not so ToughSkin

  • 18 Oct, 2005

Since I have an new iPod, I need a new skin for it. So I was shopping around eBay when I found a ToughSkin. This had all the features I wanted; mainly it had to look good and have the round part on the back for a belt clip. So I bought it. A few […]
