I finally did it. I set up a niche blog. It’s a blog all about guitars. I’m pretty excited. I would like to, once again, briefly state my disgust and rage with domain squatters.
I hate them.
Ok, that’s all.
I’ve been playing with a number of different adsense plug-ins. I’ve finally settled on one, MightyAdsense. It’s an […]

Over at Deep Jive Interests Tony asks why the Firefox people haven’t addressed the issue of memory hogging yet. I’ve been wondering this myself. There have been a number of optimization articles written to cut back on the problem, which really just proves that it exists. Tony also proposes that there’s an opportunity there for […]

For those of your that use GMail religiously like myself, I’d like to point you to this Firefox extension. It’s released by the people at LifeHacker. It’s essentially a compilation of a number of different Firefox extensions for GMail. There’s a ton of awesome options, and I’m loving it. It doesn’t even require Greasemonkey if […]

David Hughes (Senior VP of Technology, RIAA) spoke at Arizona State University on the state of the music business.
David’s argument was basically that we should feel sorry for the fact that his business is quickly becoming irrelevant and they don’t know how to change. It’s expensive to find new artists and they’re releasing bad music […]

I’m joining the IFollow revolution. I’d actually turned off ‘no follow’ a few weeks ago, but never mentioned it. Now that there’s an official movement, I wanna be seen sitting at the cool table in the cafeteria.

I guess I’ll jump on the bandwagon. This whole code of conduct thing is ridiculous. Honestly, I find it a bit pretentious. We’re really not that important. Bloggers make up a community, or a series of communities, but there’s very little legal pretense in what we do. Sure, you wouldn’t want to make a habit […]
