After just stopping by both Jeremy Wright’s and Aaron Brazell’s blogs I read stories about them moving (or already have moved) to deleting their Facebook profiles.

Are You a Blogger in Need of Education?

If you’re a blogger and heading towards pursuing some college course credits, you may check-out this site and get some cash in your […]

Online Translation Tool

Are you a blogger? Do you get foreign language comments that you’re not sure if it’s really spam or not because you have no idea what it says?

New Plaxo Pulse

It took me forever to accept a friend’s offer to start using Plaxo, but ever since I did I’ve been very pleased with the service they’ve provided. In fact they have done what they promote, and saved my entire address book from permanent deletion when my main computer crashed.

The Barenaked Family

Here’s an interesting website for someone that wants to redefine their American Dream of a house, picket fence, 2.5 children and a dog.
The Barenaked Family have left the life most of us live and exchanged it for life on the road in a ‘92 Winnebago, all five of them: mom, dad, brother and two […]

PRIVATE Photos Not-So-Private

An interesting article in Yahoo! that’s talking about the issue of “private” photos posted on the Internet on websites like MySpace, Facebook, etc.
Are they really private?
Ask Antonella Barba of American Idol fame or current Miss New Jersey, Amy Polumbo. Both of them have recently had photos that were supposed to be just in fun and […]
