Social Networks, some people hate them, some people love them, and some people just don’t care. I in fact I use a bunch of different social networks and I noted in a previous post. Now I do use these social networks for personal use (keeping up with friends, meeting new people, etc), but I also…
Delegate Tasks, Become More Productive
When you start your own business you think that you have to do everything yourself. You want your business to succeed so you become a perfectionist and want everything done correctly and the way that you want it. Now this is ok, but a lot of tasks can be delegated to others. If you put…
The First Dollar
Everyone knows the tradition, frame your first dollar. A lot of times you see them hanging in local restaurants etc. In the online world there is no such thing since we get paid via check or direct deposit, but it is funny to think about making that first little bit of money online. I’ve only…
Starting Your Day off Right
Some people are morning people and some are not, but even if you are not a morning person you should start off your day right. If you have a slow start then you will end up getting less done and you will feel like crap too. I do a good amount of my work in…
CES Swag Contest Over
Well the CES Swag Contest is over and I have e-mailed the winner. If they do not reply to my e-mail within 5 days I will pick another winner. I think that the contest went very well and I want to thank everyone for participating. Pictured above are the extra items that I threw in….
Last Day for the CES Swag Contest!
That’s right I will be picking a winner tomorrow, but to sweeten the deal I will be adding a few more things to the prize list. Since moving into my new place I realized I have way to much stuff, so why not give it away. I mean I have no use for it, so…
Moved In…Sort Of
Well like I said in my previous post Ashley and I moved into our new place this weekend. We signed the lease on Friday and moved some things in that day, but the big moving day was Saturday. We have a lot of large furniture so we hired movers, but they were not from a…
A Busy Week
This week has been extremely busy for me. If you didn’t know I am moving this weekend. Ashley and I decided to move because it’s not worth wasting all the money on a townhouse when it is only the 2 of us. Also she wants to live closer to home. So after 2 full days…
Checking Out Yahoo Live
As some of you know I sometimes lifecast on Justin.tv. I really like the Justin.tv service, I’ve been with them since beta and they have really made a lot of improvements since that time. All of the chat features and video features are something that you won’t find with other services like this. I also…
Getting People to take you Seriously
If you are starting any new type of business and you are dealing with customers or other businesses sometimes it can be hard for them to take you seriously, especially if you are starting an online business. This happened to me when I first started ThinkComputers. I was about 16-17 when I started the site…
Yahoo Turns Down Microsoft
Well this was not the best news to me. I had really hoped if Microsoft and Yahoo joined forces a lot of good would come of it, especially in the online advertising market. As I said Yahoo’s Publisher Network and Microsoft’s AdCenter don’t even compare to Google Adsense, but if they were combined, there could…
Lunch at Sushi Tomo
Over the past year I’ve gotten a real appreciation for Japanese food. I had my first Sushi back in 2006, but never really started eating it on a constant basis till about 4 months ago. After having amazing Sushi in Las Vegas from Social House and Nobu Ashley and I needed to find some good…
ThinkComputers and Thermaltake Giveaway
It seems like it is the time for contests and giveaways. I am giving away some CES Swag and there are a lot of other contests going around the blogosphere. I wanted to let everyone know about a contest we have going on over at ThinkComputers. We have teamed with Thermaltake to give away over…
Revver Looking To Sell Cheap
Revver is a user-submitted video sharing platform much like YouTube. What sets it apart from YouTube is that they share revenue with their users. YouTube has revenue sharing, but only for select publishers. Revver on the other hard offers this to everyone. I really like the service and it gave me another avenue to make…
CES 2008 Swag Giveaway!
Last Month I showed you all the free swag I got at CES. I have decided to give a good amount of it away! Like I said in the previous post I still have a lot of the stuff from CES 2007 so why not give away most of this stuff. There will only be…
