Get with the Program!

On June 5, 2008 By

Ok, I need to rant a bit here to get this off my chest. Sorry if some bricks I throw come your  way, you can pick them up and throw them back if you like. In the past week I have worked with two dif­fer­ent clients which are still main­tain­ing old PHP code, one […]

Hi, my name is Bill and I am a pod­cast (net­cast, Internet media) addict. I sub­scribe to over 110 pod­casts and I lis­ten to them all. My list starts with the “All CNET Audio Podcasts” and “All CNET Video Podcasts” sub­scrip­tions, works its way through sev­eral gen­eral news pod­casts includ­ing some from CNN, Fox, […]

Twitter out, Pownce in

On April 10, 2008 By

I have to admit, I still don’t really get Twitter. It seems like it is 99% garbage. Twitter is based on the ques­tion, “What are you doing?” and in most cases, peo­ple are doing rather noth­ing inter­est­ing. I know I cer­tainly am not. Others use it almost as a web […]
