When the hubbub finally settles, and all the remaining web site glitches have been ironed out, and society at large has grown tired of the dull critique from politicians on the sidelines, and the roll-out of “ObamaCare” becomes a done deal across the land, then some 33 million Americans who have not previously had access to […]
Vizify has done it again with another cool way to summarize your Twitter experience. This time it’s by combining details about when you post, your favorite topics, photos and followers, and a few of your top posts quoted, all in a lively animation set to catchy music, under a minute long.

Well I finally quit procrastinating and got it done, so I can take this off my whiteboard. THE GOAL To unite bloggers (from all […]
We’re now just past the third-year mark since Tame Bear learned of Traffic Exchanges and has made them a part of his life, at varying times and degrees. So it is with great pleasure that I present my actual earnings so far this year (output from Quick Books For Mac) woo hoo. Relatively modest by […]
