Read MoreWhat’s in a Word?
I’m not sure if this is a rant or just sharing a frustration I see from time to time. I do have a fascination with words, like definitions, origins, and how funny the English language can be. Growing up in a single parent home with my brothers and sisters you learned to appreciation what you…
Read MoreSorrowful Pride
If you’ve ever attended a funeral for a loved one or friend that has served in any branch of military then you’ve heard the lonesome sorrowful sound of the trumpeter respectfully playing taps for the fallen soldier. I have experienced this for both family and friends and every time I hear it no matter the…
Read MoreSecrets Your Web Person Doesn’t Want You to Know
Announcing my latest course – Or I should say a revamp of a previous course. I taught this course for a private group a couple of years ago and thought it was a good time to revamp it since technology has changed so much over the last couple of years. Even if you have a…
Read MoreChanges they are a coming….
After many years of rocking the Thesis I’m trying something different. I’ve really liked the Thesis theme but the latest 2.0 was a bit of drastic change for me and I didn’t want to take the time to relearn the whole system just to upgrade. As I’ve mentioned several times over the last few months…
Read MoreWordPress Theme Or Framework?
Just a short post today I’m looking at making some changes on my site/blog here I’ve been a big fan of Thesis for sometime but I’ve delayed upgrading to version 2. While it might be a great framework still I’ve decided to see what other options there are out there. In saying that I’m curious…
Read MoreDid you Forget it?
I Have a free video tip for you in just a second but first wanted to share a thought (and a good post) I pushed myself to get up early this morning. Not that 7:30 is early for most but as many know I don’t sleep much anyway. But I was determined to get another…
Read MoreStale Website Content
This post is an excerpt from my book “50 Biggest Website Mistakes“. This mistake happens more so with website owners that have multiple sites than those that have just one or two but it happens to just about any website owner at some point or another. What Iโm talking about is stale or old content…
Read MoreChallenge Yourself
After a 2 month hiatus I returned to the gym today. I had allowed my self to slack off from working out due to a business trip, then the holidays, then the thought of “oh, I’ll just do it from home”. Who was I kidding? It’s way to easy to say I’ll walk in and…
Read MoreForced Add-ons
OK, this is a bit of a rant but I find this SO annoying! You go to install the suggested Adobe Flash update and if you’re not paying attention you get something more. As you can see the check box is already checked by default. Why would you want to push someone else’s product on…
Read MoreThings to be Thankful for
Usually this time each year I post things that I’m thankful for but a friend of mine (Stu Mclaren over at http://stu.me) did it a little differently and I liked the format he used so I thought I would share what I posted there. Here is the 10 things I’m thankful for. I’m curious what…
Read MoreBuyers Remorse?
Ok I posted this on Facebook but figured it was a good rant for my blog as well. ๐ I’m not sure if I fully understand Apples Marketing plan – I get the iPad mini (maybe) I mean it seems like they’re trying to back step to grab the kindle fire market. But I DON’T…
