I’ll admit that I remained willingly ignorant to the Internet tax issue in New York because, well, I don’t live in New York. Apparently, California is looking to implement a similar bill, AB 178, which was introduced earlier this month. Now, my eyes are open.
I won’t get into the specifics about the New York issue [...]

You may recall that, several months ago, we had to switch from Dish to cable TV and ended up going with a bundle from SureWest that included TV, Internet and phone services. We’ve been miserable, until now.
As of yesterday afternoon, we no longer have SureWest, and are now happy (for the most part) AT&T U-verse [...]

There appears to be more backlash from the Feedburner to Google migration. I just received the following email from CommentLuv:
Important!

Google has recently taken over FeedBurner which means
your feed URL has changed. CommentLuv stores your
feed URL from the first time it sees your site so if
you are using Feedburner be sure to log in to
CommentLuv, go [...]

I was just over on TechieBuzz.com and read about a handy tool called “I Like Your Colors,” provided by RedAlt that I thought was good enough to add to my personal start page. Simply enter a URL in the form at the bottom of the page and it will bring back the colors used on [...]

You know you’ve seen it. You know you want it. I mean, it’s got “Wow” in its name! And “you know the Germans always make good stuff!” It looks as though people should have focused more on the other part of the name, “sham.”
People who have used this product claim that it doesn’t work, that [...]

It looks like Adam Carolla, of Loveline, The Man Show and Crank Yankers fame, is leaving terrestrial radio. Well, actually, he may be being forced out as the station is being turned into another Top 40 cesspool. I’ve been a pretty big fan of his for quite some time, but since I got SIRIUS satellite [...]

I’m what you might call a Pepsi addict, as opposed to a coke addict. I typically have at least three cans a day, which is an improvement over when I used to live next to a 99 cent store and could easily go through a 2 liter a day. Yes, it’s too much. Yes, it’s [...]

As you may know, Google bought out Feedburner in June of 2007. Good for them, bad for us. For the past month, Google has been allowing publishers to try out the new system if they want. Now, they’re forcing us to migrate over to their new system, which requires us to change links and code [...]

You may have noticed that I’ve been absent for several days… or nobody noticed. In either case, this is what I’ve been up to! My wife treated me to a vacation in Vegas for my birthday and we had a pretty good time. It was a short trip on a shoe string budget, but was [...]

Let me count the ways…

We have been T-Mobile customers for around six years and have had horrible to non-existent reception in our house. Unfortunately, now that we want to use it as an excuse to discontinue service, we can’t because they’ve put up a new cell tower.
We currently have three lines, but only use two, [...]
