Whoops, I just sent like 400 StumbleUpon Friend Requests

  • 2 Nov, 2007

It seems that StumbleUpon can connect to your Gmail account and auto-magically connect you with those that have StumbleUpon accounts. I thought that was cool so I did it. I didn’t realize that it was also sending invites to all those in my address book that weren’t on StumbleUpon. Since I have 419 random emails […]

Is GIMP cool or lame?

  • 30 Oct, 2007

I’m a big fan of open source, or alternative, software. I’m not a fan of paying hundreds of dollars for an application. Needless to say I’m not a big fan of Microsoft or Adobe. So what’s a good open source graphic design application? I’ve tried a lot of programs and now I’m looking at GIMP. […]

Suggestions for a digital camera?

  • 29 Oct, 2007

Our digital camera has long since disappeared. I’m not sure if I left it in California or if it’s just lost around the house. Either way, we are in the market for a new digital camera. We took a quick look at BestBuy, Target and online over the weekend and there are so many good […]

Now on Mac OS 10.5 Leopard!

  • 27 Oct, 2007

I stood in line last night like a good Apple geek to get Mac OSX 10.5 Leopard and a free t-shirt! I installed it this morning and it’s running great. I did the archive and install option and it’s all wonderful. I love the new dock and the rounded corners on the menus. Small things […]

While at WalMart the other day, we ran across the one of the coolest cakes I’ve ever seen. It’s a hamburger & fries cake. // Image lost.If you really want it back, comment below and I’ll dig. // Everything pictured above is either cake or frosting. Right down to to the fries and ketchup. To […]

Upgraded to WordPress 2.3 Smoothly

  • 26 Sep, 2007

I took the jump to WordPress 2.3 tonight and I don’t seem to see any issues.  Do you see any?  If you do, post them below or email them to me. The upgrade was painless and all my Ultimate Tag Warrior tags imported beautifully.  Thanks to LifeSpy for the run down on how-to get them […]

iPod touch Should Be iPod PDA!

  • 5 Sep, 2007

With Apple’s new announcement of iPod touch, I’m ready to buy! (Wife, ignore that.) iPod touch is basically an iPhone without the phone. Perfect for me as I don’t want to go with ATT. It has a multi touch interface, Wi-Fi and iTunes Store on the iPod! I think I’m in love. Even better yet, […]

I love & hate CSS.

  • 4 Sep, 2007

I love CSS, but yet I hate it to. For some reason, the same code can’t work in all browsers. And I’m not just complaining about the non-standards compliant Internet Explorer (all versions) but I’m finding minor differences in different versions of Firefox. How is that possible?!! Getting everything to line up just seems to […]

I’m off to SES San Jose for the week. If I don’t make any posts, you’ll know why. If you happen to be out at the search engine strategies conference, keep an eye out for me and say HI! You’ll be able to notice me with my shinny new MacBook Pro! 😀
