Cloverfield is almost here!
Friday, December 21st, 2007I’ve been following this whole Cloverfield movie thing since I first heard about in on Ain’t It Cool News back in June. Rather than rehash all the sites and underground buzz about it, I’ll just point you to Wikipedia, which covers it in pretty good detail. Just in case you haven’t heard about […]
Are you a Finance Genius?
Friday, December 21st, 2007The holidays are upon us and everyone is looking for ways to better manage their finances. One of the first things that people consider is refinancing an existing loan.

Find a hosting provider with Web Hosting Choice
Friday, December 21st, 2007When I first decided to start my blog, it was important to me that I get an independent hosting company. I wanted to have full control of my blog, without restrictions. The problem was, none of my close friends were blogging (or if they were, they were using a hosted solution), so I […]
Hulu Invitations
Thursday, December 20th, 2007Get ‘em while they’re hot! Mashable.com, one of my favorite Web 2.0 news sites, is giving out 2,500 Hulu invitations!
