WordPress plugins – why not share them.
The WordPress community is vast. WordPress is one of the major blog CMS on the Internet. I very much enjoy browsing the Web and whenever I come across a blog, I find interesting, I tend to check, or at leased attempt to, what plugins are used on the blog. Anyone, who is familiar with the…

Religious oxymoron?
On the way to work this morning I ended up behind a van. The van had the Jesus fish on its rear door, but I could also see a dream catcher hanging from the driver’s visor. Now, doesn’t this classify as a religious oxymoron? I mean, how can you follow Jesus and then believe in…

Comcast gets owned by the FCC. Well, sort of.
Another win for Net Neutrality. Today it was reported that the FCC “disciplined” Crap…Comcast for their violation of their customers basic write to access information on the Internet.

Annual theme change.
This blog underwent the annual theme change. This year I wanted to go with something simple, something plain, but still very functional and pleasing to the eye.

Twitter Tool – I love you, I hate you!
The Twitter Tool, a WordPress plugin, is an awesome tool. I love that it posts to my Twitter account whenever I make a post on my blog. It also provides me with the ability to make new tweets from my blog’s sidebar and from within the WordPress administrator menu. But the feature I find most…

I very much dislike scrapers!
I just spend 15 minutes blocking splogs and scraper IPs for jutiagroup.com. It is a pain in the rear. I have to spend time sorting through comments, that are marked as SPAM, to make sure there aren’t any good ones. Almost always they are bad, and 99% of the time they are trackbacks from scraper…
