Wanna see a real blog?
The question is posed in this blog title not to suggest any form of negative implication towards other blogging platforms but more as a means of demonstrating all that is available in blogging options. There are free blogging options and there are some options that cost a few dollars. My public...

Sometimes the king of junk must act like a peasant of junk
But I can say that it is in keeping with the King of Junk philosphy which is simply to retain the crown at all costs. Getting something for free, (as someone else's junk) then turning around and making a quick $150 will not get me another entry into the junk hall of fame but it will maintain my...

Backing up your computor
I just stopped in to see a friend who has just experienced the mother of all computer data nightmares. His office was broken into this past weekend, they stole his computer and a few other things but more to his horror, they lifted a case of CDs he had in a case in one of his desk drawers. These CDs...

Need a free HTML editor?
If you are like me (cheap), spending money on one of the widely used web page editors such as Dreamweaver or Frontpage is something that can be avoided. In all of the free software categories, HTML editors seems to have a great number of choices, so much so that it is difficult to make a...

The results after a week
I've referred to my dramatic method of stopping the auto-spammers as throwing the baby out with the bath water while tying a rope around the baby. Okay, admittedly that analogy sucks but the point is that I wouldn't recommend this method unless you find yourself in the same situation. That being...

Eliminating spam email - the fork in the road
Yesterday's solution of using an email challenge form has reduced over 300 spam emails on Friday to just 2 in a 24 hour period. Still, this is not the most desirable set up as it relies entirely on a second email sending effort on the part of the client. Filtering incoming emails is still the most...

Eliminating spam email - intro
The last couple of days have been fairly annoying from the perspective of someone that tends to treat others with the respect that they deserve. Someone, somewhere has taken my primary email address and added it to one of those list they sell to email script monkey morons who use automation to...

Yes, I have a web forum - how about you?
One of the things my webhosting provides (as many do) is a list of free website scripts that can be installed in a minute or less with a utility known as Fantastico. There are about 40 scripts in all, with favorites such as Wordpress and osCommerce to a number of less well known but equally useful...

Stupid is as stupid does momma - almost ready to go live
I can't help but remember the immortal words spoken by Forrest Gump as I re-construct my freeware directory... you know the one, the freeware directory who's database I accidently deleted when methane passed through my cranium instead of exiting my body in the normal fashion. That and the fact that...
