For Liz Smith…

Dear Reader,
I was playing around with bitstrips.com today and this is what I came up with. Props to Liz Smith for the content.

Not sure how I feel about bitstrips.com. Like a lot of Web 2.0 projects, …it’s cute but what’s the point? (I wasn’t aware that the web needed a youtube for [...]

I thought it may be fun to do a PHP community building instead of real work this close to the holidays, so I set up PHP City. To participate, just click the link to PHP City and you are a resident. If you really want to get involved, pick yourself a title (I’m Mayor McCal) and post a proclamation as a news bulletin.

Proving my point

Dear Reader,

Congrats Sean!
Until Next Time,

Just Say No to SEO

Dear Reader,
I’m in a discussion over at johnon.com about SEO. The owner of that blog, John, took issue with my review of this book. Even after asking him and receiving his response, I was still not sure why he insisted on talking about the Zend Framework in a post that was obviously about my [...]

Traveling Companions

Dear Reader,
Back from the House of Mouse and a wonderful 4 days spent with my favorite traveling companions. (Oh yea, the family was along also)
What I did on my vacation (Disney, Cirque, Savannah Ghost Tour) is much less interesting than who I traveled with. (BTW, if any of you know someone who actually works at [...]

Dear Reader,

TV Host Bill Maher Suggests Dick Cheney’s Death Would Save Lives
Actually, the exact quote was:
“I have zero doubt that if Dick Cheney was not in power, people wouldn’t be dying needlessly tomorrow.” - Bill Maher.
