New York Times – For Free?

March 31, 2008

I can’t help but love the fact that I can read the New York Times, in its entirety, for free online.
I’m not sure how I just noticed this, other than it’s probably because I get most of my news from CNN.com and Google News (and I don’t think “Newspaper” very often) – so it never [...]

Has it really been a week?

March 28, 2008

Wow.  My bad.  It’s been a long time.  It’s amazing what being out of pocket (and a Time Warner crash) will do to your blogging.
I needed a vacation, but I hate coming back from them because I always feel behind.  I think I’m mostly caught up, and I’ll try to post something useful here soon.  [...]

March 28, 2008

This is pretty interesting.
At the precise time we are looking at integrating some Google Apps into our system, some new features are coming out.  I’ll have to figure out how  we can take advantage of this.

Personal Finance Spreadsheet

March 20, 2008

So, I’m a personal finance geek. I worship at the altar of Dave Ramsey and Suze Orman. I love it – it’s interesting and fun to plan. Most importantly, it’s one of the most important things you can do for yourself. Managing your money and credit is vital to your future [...]

I have a few immediate needs….

March 19, 2008

1) Someone who knows how to set up a SmarterMail Email Server correctly (so it doesn’t look like junk mail)
2) A list of all the Thursday/Friday NCAA games, sorted by time, station, and viewing area.
3) Someone who can train a 2 month old border collie not to pee on my floor (see cuteness here)
4)  About [...]

Why “Good Enough” Generally Isn’t.

March 17, 2008

In the world of someone who wants to accomplish great things, there is no room for the term “Good Enough.” Because, in reality, that ENOUGH point is always moving. Move forward and get better or get out of business.
Sometimes, I find myself lulled into complacency when it comes to the quality of my [...]

Healthy Fried Rice

March 13, 2008

Another throwback to the GourmetDudes days – this is Healthy Fried Rice.
You just need a couple things – ground turkey, egg beaters, and brown rice.  Plus any veggies you like.
Brown up the turkey, drain off what little fat there is. Sautee up the veggies in olive oil,  until done.  Be preparing your brown rice while [...]

Affiliate Marketing – Facebook Ad Copy

March 13, 2008

So, I learned one lesson in my first day of running one very, very limited Facebook Campaign.
If you want to be successful on Facebook, you’d better have a pretty compelling ad.  I segmented down my audience, and burned through 11k impressions in about 1 hour (perhaps a sign I didn’t segment down enough?).  Of that, [...]

Affiliate Marketing Introduction

March 13, 2008

One thing I’m starting to explore is the wide, wide world of affiliate marketing.  Clayton got me into the idea – and I figured that I have made a pretty decent living running online campaigns that deliver solid ROI for other people.
So, why not take a stab myself.  I’d like to think  I can select [...]

10 Things I Think

March 12, 2008

(required nod to SI’s Peter King for the Idea)
1) I don’t care if you’re my mom, I’m not accepting your invitation to add a Facebook App.  I love you and all, but the only app I’m allowing is Twitter – why?  It let’s me do two things at once.  I have never used it for [...]
