Tuesday, September 18th, 2007One of my favorite bands is Nine Inch Nails. This video is apparently getting some diggable action, so I thought that I’d share it the link love. In typical Reznor fashion, he gives the finger to major label record companies. This recording is from a recent Australian show.
Reznor to Fans: “Has anyone […]
Save Money at Black-Friday.net
Tuesday, September 18th, 2007Everyone knows what Black Friday is, right? Black Friday is the day after Thanksgiving, and the unofficial beginning of the holiday shopping season. Major retailers are known to have ridiculously crazy specials and deals in order to lure turkey stuffed shoppers out of their homes. Each and every year the deals get […]
Another Wordpress Upgrade
Sunday, September 16th, 2007I recently upgrade my Wordpress implementation to version 2.2.1 on September 6th, 2007. Shortly after going to version 2.2.1, Wordpress version 2.2.2 was released. I have no idea if it was really necessary to upgrade to version 2.2.2, but I once had a RedHat Linux installation rootkitted when I failed to keep it […]
Book at HotelReservations.com
Sunday, September 16th, 2007Like most people in the consulting industry, I travel a lot. Finding hotels for a good price in unfamiliar cities can sometimes be tricky. Luckily, I found HotelReservations.com. HotelReservations.com is a cutting edge website that offers great hotel rooms at extremely competitive prices. They offer name brand hotels from companies such […]
Free Invitation to “i’m in like with you”
Sunday, September 16th, 2007Ok readers… Here’s a new Web 2.0 site for your viewing pleasure. I originally found this site from someone on Pownce, who posted a link to this very interesting promotional video (http://static.iminlikewithyou.com/preview.html). Note that the video is fairly large and might take a second or two to load. If you can watch […]
New site: Jim’s Rants
Sunday, September 16th, 2007I recently came across a new blog site, Jim’s Rants (http://jims-rants.blogspot.com/). I originally came across this post on his blog, in which he describes his (very normal) disdain for jerk drivers. I happen to agree with his post. I mean, why can’t everyone just wait for their turn rather than trying to […]
I love me some TiVo and Amazon Unbox!
Sunday, September 9th, 2007Anyone who knows me knows that I love TiVo. When I say TiVo, it’s very important to note that I mean a TiVo brand DVR - not some off-brand DVR and not some cable company-provided DVR. When I say TiVo, I mean TiVo. I’ve had my TiVo for almost three years now […]
A Pownce Review and Free Pownce Invitations
Sunday, September 9th, 2007Let’s review Pownce! For those of you unaware, Pownce is a micro-blogging website created by Kevin Rose, Leah Culver, Daniel Burka, and Shawn Allen. Together the four of them have formed a company with the unusual name of Megatechtronium. If the name Kevin Rose sounds familiar, it’s because he’s one of […]
Upcoming Perficient Events
Thursday, September 6th, 2007I don’t know how many people check out my “About” page of my site, but those that have know that I work in sales in the service oriented architecture practice group for the information technology consulting company, Perficient. I joined Perficient when they acquired my previous employee, the Houston-based ZettaWorks. I’ve thoroughly […]
Wordpress Upgrade
Thursday, September 6th, 2007Several weeks back I successfully upgraded my WordPress implementation from version 2.1.3 to version 2.2.1. All I can say is thank goodness for Fantastico scripts and my hosting provider, AH Hosting. Without those scripts, I don’t think I would’ve attempted the upgrade. The process was fairly straightforward. I did the upgrade […]
