Thursday, December 27th, 2007

I found a link to the tools page of the Digg web site which contains various code for various “Digg This” functionality. One block of code claimed […]

Smorty Update

Thursday, October 18th, 2007

It’s been a couple of months since I joined Smorty, so I thought it was time for a quick update. First of all, I must admit I haven’t maximized my use of Smorty by any means. They usually email new opportunities several times a week, and by the time I jump onto their web site […]

Tuesday, October 9th, 2007

A few days ago I was tagged by Absolutely True and challenged to “Show My Desktop”.

It seems you have to be really careful what words you use on your blog posts at the moment. Not long after I’d finished laughing at a post on the DealDotCom blog where they were featuring a “Meet Gay Chubby Guys” AdSense ad, I was looking back through some of my old posts and noticed […]
