Well we’ve had some fun in the discussion of this post as to that new campaign tool Facebook. Hang in there, because there’s bound to be a little something for everyone in this information.
First, Facebook is part of a group of Web tools called social networking. Along with Twitter it’s the latest greatest thing to [...]

Ok, this might be love. Not $300 worth of love, but love.
Meet the Demy.

Demy, a recipe file reader, was an advert on the Iron Cupcake Milwaukee site. What? You don’t know about Iron Cupcake? Well that’s next. Or what you just read, depending on how long it takes me to type it up and when [...]

My urge to clean every closet has started early this season. Since it doesn’t make sense to have extra piles strewn through the house during this season, I’ve decided to clean up the e-mail in boxes.

I broke down and bought a new laptop. This is what I chose. Nothing’s perfect, but so far so good. I did pick up the external dvd drive, too.

This new one should travel almost as well [...]

I really like the size of the laptop I’m using for most of my daily work. With a 12.1″ screen, it handles and travels very easily. I added another gig of ram a few months ago so the tough stuff I can throw at it goes well. What always hacked me off was the way [...]
