I’ve Mastered the Universe!

This comic CRAKED me up. I always feel like a freakin’ genius when I figure something out!

I can’t be the only one. :)

Do you have Klout?

Posted on January 31st, 2010 in blogging | 3 Comments »

Sorry for my absence. Every since WordCamp Boston I’ve been playing with JQuery (thanks to Jim Doran.) I’m hoping to post a few examples but it’s taking me a little longer then expected.

So instead I thought I pass on an interesting new twitter tool I found called Klout. Klout measures influence on topics across the social web. It gives you an interesting visual of your twitter profile. Think of it like a Myers-Briggs for your twitter personality.

The four “types” are. . . Read the rest of this entry »

Boston Here I Come!

Posted on January 21st, 2010 in general | 4 Comments »

I’m heading to my second ever Wordcamp this weekend. The first one I tended was a local Baltimore event. Baltimore’s cool, but, hey, I live here. Wordcamp could be even MORE fun in a new and exciting city. So when my friend Jim said he was speaking at Wordcamp Boston I had to take the opportunity to go. Read the rest of this entry »

Random…but how do you upload your little nike+ run stuff to your website? I’d LOVE to show those in my posts while I train this spring.

Thanks Roni!!

Hi Brandi!

This is a very posular question at the moment so I thought I’d do a step by step. You can use those tutorial to get images of your runs but the technique can really be used for anything. Read the rest of this entry »

Sorry I’ve been MIA. The holidays really set me back. I appreciate all the MAC vs. PC comments. I’m sticking it out with my MAC for now and when I have more time I write a post about the problems I’ve been having.

In the meantime I thought I’d pass on a site that may be of some interest to you. I’ve been using Compete.com while researching sites at work. It allows you to research traffic statistics and compare sites with a quick graph. Here’s a little side by side of Roni’s Weigh, GreenLiteBites and SkinnyMinnyMedia. . .

Even cooler then that, Compete has a toolbar for Firefox that automatically tells you the traffic of the site you are currently on like this. . .

Very cool! At least I think so. :)

MAC vs. PC – Help me decide!

Posted on December 23rd, 2009 in general | 27 Comments »

MAC vs PCMy MAC is driving me up the wall! I made the switch 2 years ago and frankly, I don’t see what all the fuss is about. Besides having the cuter character (I’m a sucker for Justin Long), what benefit is there to owning a MAC?

Seriously. I need to buy a new laptop soon and I can’t decide if I want to stick it out in the MAC world or go back to PC. I want to hear from people in both camps. What do you have? Why?

Thoughts? Insights? Opinions?

ANYTHING!

It’s been FOREVER since I did some simple multimedia development. With the wide acceptance of blogging and my recent Wordpress obsession (recent as in the last 4 years) I seem to have forgotten my roots in the multimedia world.

Does anyone remember Flash? I know we still see it all over the web and there’s all these crazy Flash applications and 3D immersive environments, but sometimes I long for the old days. You know, before Flash become a programming environment and us scripters didn’t have to know object oriented-programing to make a simple interaction. Read the rest of this entry »

Blogs are. . .

Blogs are whatever we make them. Defining ‘blog’ is a fool’s errand.
