    Yahoo Publisher is going Away

    Reading time: 1 minute

    I had signed up to test some ads on another blog with the Yahoo Publisher network.  I wasn’t too impressed, and took the ads down quickly, but kept the account, just in case. Well, today I got this email: Dear Publisher, Yahoo! continuously evaluates and prioritizes our products and services, in alignment with business goals…

    The Location War: Mid-Battle Report

    Reading time: 1 minute

    So, as promised a few weeks ago on Twitter, I decided to give a few services a try, and weed out the ones that I felt like weren’t serving my purpose well.  After almost a month of testing, I’ve finally narrowed it down to the two top contenders: Foursquare and Gowalla. IF all things continue…

    WordPress Plugin: Author Spotlight

    Reading time: 2 minutes

    I’ve been doing a lot of looking into using WordPress as a multi-author website/blog lately.  A few of my clients have requested the need to handle (elegantly) multiple authors, so (being fresh on my mind) I feel inclined to share. One of the coolest plugin combinations I’ve come across recently is using Author Spotlight and…

    How to Make a Royally Awesome Author Template in WordPress

    Reading time: 7 minutes

    I’ve been trying some new stuff with my client’s websites as of late.  I wanted something where a multi-blog site could get the most out of as few plugins as possible, and still have a really awesome way to display their author’s main information.  But, the information they ask for doesn’t have everything.  What about…

    Snickers commercial with Betty White Let’s be honest – Betty White makes nearly anything funny, and throw in Abe and some funny commentary from both and you’ve got yourself a killer commercial. Doritos: Snack Attack Samurai It’s my personal opinion that Doritos is the clear cut commercial winner this year.  All of their commercials were…
