What’s Facebook NOT Telling you?
Friday, September 28th, 2007Facebook is big… really big.
And things that big get picked on. Hey, it may not be fair but that’s just the way it is. Don’t cry for Facebook of course, they have about 146 million reasons (annual revenue + active users) to not care about prattle coming from nay-sayers.
This article is not about the [...]

Testing out Comment Captcha
Wednesday, September 26th, 2007I really need some extra help filtering out comment spam on some of my sites. The 1ShoppingCart blog is particularly bad for Spam receiving floods of it everyday, and while Akismet is a life saver, there is still a ton of crap that gets through and eats into my time when I have to [...]
My Love/Hate Relationship with the Internet and Social Media
Wednesday, September 26th, 2007It’s true; the Internet, new media, social media etc… All of it… Bah, it frustrates me sometimes.

David had a great response too, which basically boiled down to being excited by, but having a fear of not being able to keep up with the rapid pace of change the online world will experience over the [...]

My experience with kids and sleep is that they never do [...]
