Does WordPress 2.5 Fix Google Cache Hack?

I have spent the past few months working on a very search centric CMS that I could offer clients, and use myself.  So the idea of upgrading my WordPress is something I didn’t want to deal with.  I admit that WordPress 2.5 looked to be a great step up, especially since I was 3 versions [...]

I learned a few weeks back that I was featured in the new book, Online Marketing Heroes.  I actually didn’t see a copy of the book until I was speaking at SXSW.  I have been trying to control my ego a bit after reading Eckhart Tolle, but I have to confess to liking the sight [...]

Four year ago my friend Russ, who at the time worked for me, asked is the company could send him to SXSW.  After looking over the website I thought it seemed like a good show to attend myself.  I was growing tired of the industry shows like Ad:tech and Search Engine Strategies.  Plus, I had [...]

Is GameWar Really GamePal?

Posted in Complaints, Web

A couple days ago I got a comment here that Gamepal now owns Gamewar.com. I didn’t think much about it until “Margaret” posted a follow up comment directed at me denying the relationship. These comments came within a short time of me getting the Gamepal ”cease and desist” email. I know Gamepal reads [...]

Gamepal threatens to sue me

Gamepal threatens to sue me

I seem to be a lighting rod of litigation lately.  The latest stems from our friends at Gamepal who don’t like the fact that I have shared my experiences with their service. As some of you might recall, I used their service for a World of Warcraft account to level up a character for me. [...]

My son, who has spent the last few months getting excited about the Chaotic game, was banned from the game last week for trying to enter his cards.  I had ordered a big box of cards from eBay, including both starter decks and a case of 24 cards.  Part of the “fun” of the game [...]

My documented experience with Gamepal is oddly the second most popular post on my blog. For those who don’t know, I hired Gamepal to power level my World of Warcraft character. I just didn’t have the time to keep up with the game and wanted to play with my son more. But [...]

Is YouTube the next Napster?

Even on the Web, few companies have exploded at the pace of YouTube. Started by a couple of Paypal employees with the dream of allowing everyone to share their thoughts through Flash video, YouTube has become one of the biggest sites on the Web. I recently watched the democratic debate on YouTube, and [...]

I had a big change in my life this week. After nearly 6 years of long days I have left my position at USWeb. I decided that I need a change of pace, and that USWeb was not really the right fit for me going forward.
I will be moving forward with Blogitive, and [...]

I have been playing with Grand Central for a few days now, and I’m in love with this app. I find it difficult to believe, and a little scary, that I now have my last phone number ever. I have moved around a lot in my life, so the idea of never having [...]
