Stracka.com - for people who love golf

Stracka.com is a new social network for people who love golf. It’s a lot more than any social network I’ve seen though. Stracka seems to focus more on the idea of golf than the latest “social” features, which is a great idea executed cleanly here.
One of the most interesting things is they have actual […]

Did I Jinx Knighthood in Facebook?

Less than 24 hours after I talk about the Knighthood application on Facebook on this site it gets removed! What’s up? From the comments on my original post it doesn’t look like anyone knows the reason.

I didn’t really start playing it much until today and I’ve got to say it’s really growing on me.
I’m a HUGE fan of the Sid Meier classic strategy game, Civilization (if you’re […]

Amazing Honda Ad

I blogged about this ad last year but at the time didn’t have the ability to embed the video into the post. My father-in-law sent me a new link to the ad that allows me to embed it thanks to Albino Blacksheep.

Bag, Borrow or Steal

My wife uncovered the Bag, Borrow or Steal website for me. Well, not actually for me because I just don’t understand why women would do something like this. I don’t think most men would get this.
The Bag, Borrow or Steal site basically let’s women “borrow” very expensive, designer pursues for a set fee based […]

Google Street Level Maps

I’ve been a huge fan Google Maps and Google Local ever since it came out and has been available on the Internet.
Yesterday though I was checking out the location of a house that a friend of mine is putting a bid in on to purchase because I was certain it was fairly close to […]

Brownbook - Local Business Directory Wiki

I found out about the Brownbook site because someone named Ben emailed me about it.
