Google Ornaments – a Holiday Easter Egg?

TweetI was just doing a search for “.at” domain, and the results page had ornaments displaying. As of right now, this search still does that, but I can’t get any other searches doing that:

Focusing Up: CNET – A Stock To Watch

Read more on "Focusing Up: CNET – A Stock To Watch" »

TweetI use to dabble in stocks in the dot-com days and before then, roughly 1996. It was the summer before my Senior year in high school and I was in the shape of my life, because I’d wake up at 5:30am, go to the gym to work-out, come home to watch CNBC and eat some [...]

Music recommendation: The Silent Years

TweetI never talk about music on this blog, despite it being likely my biggest passion in life. One band that blows my mind is a small band out of Detroit called ‘The Silent Years‘. Their album can be played over, and over, and over again — all in a row. (Yes I have done this) [...]

TweetThe new movie Juno is awesome. If you liked the movie ‘Little Miss Sunshine‘, then you’ll love this film just as much. There are still some free screenings going down of Juno — see if you can get some free passes to a theater near you.

As Universal retracts full songs from MySpace, that cripples MySpace a bit — and will get users to go to other services like Facebook, iLike, Purevolume … [if Universal isn't telling artists to remove full songs from [...]

My MySpace Days Are Over

Read more on "My MySpace Days Are Over" »

TweetI’ll likely let my profile sit there, but those days are over. The only comments I get anymore are from my “friends”, but are really bots that have hacked my friends’ accounts, and have posted comments on my page on behalf of my friends. I wonder how many people on MySpace realize they’ve been caught [...]

Jakob, Zach, Vimeo, IAC, and Corporate America’s Red Tape

TweetI posted a comment to a post that I’m sure will get lost on TechCrunch regarding Jakob Lodwick leaving IAC (fired, apparently): – IMO, Vimeo has, to this day, the tightest design I’ve ever seen in my life — and I’ve seen a lot of websites. – You can’t put entrepreneurs into a sluggish corporate [...]
