Leadership Made Simple was launched on Amazon today and has made #2 on the Movers and Shakers List! Correction – it’s now #1 as I check right now. Congratulations Ed! The book was written by Ed Oakley (he says by his clients) and includes over 18 years of experience and 40 examples of how Ed’s [...]

Turns out Tom Antion had a snide retort after getting caught spamming and his stupid mass email on his blogspot blog. Yes, comments are disabled apparently because he can’t allow anyone to show the hypocrisy behind his latest spam. He speaks of novice webmasters while his comments are at blogger. Here’s the post, with no-follow [...]

Rant: I received a BUNCH of email over night. I was a little confused because there wasn’t any content in the BODY of any of them.  This person was pretty irritated too – hinted by the PARAGRAPHS of text put in the SUBJECT line of each msg. YES – Their email was getting bounced back [...]

Authority is an “accepted source of expert information and advice”. On the web, a link to a page is a vote, and its existence is because the site linked to is found to be useful and informative – in a perfect world. So, if more sites link to it, it becomes authoritative. So, building a [...]

Ok ok ok.  Not what you’d think but I had a good time, so it’s worth it.  Last night I sent a tweet saying “Hey, meet us for a drink and I’ll talk about ya” and a couple showed up. A friend named Jim who’s a Calgary real estate agent showed his desire too, but [...]

It was actually my first app for iPhone but didn’t submit it to Apple. So I did now and they took it. Thanks to all of you who have sought out the wares and used them and left some great comments and sent nice thanks. From all the “Thank yous” this lone app has rescued [...]

No, I wouldn’t use its generated template as a theme, but it’s a great way to experiment with colors and gain inspiration. If you find something you like you [...]

After believing I was close to hitting the One Million mark for unique visitors to this blog I started crunching the numbers. I use 3 different metrics systems on this site to gauge it and don’t want to count any false hits, spiders, etc. but I can now confidently say I did it last night. [...]

I do enjoy (as many are) seeing such entrees in my logs.  Hello MIBOR – Thanks for coming back (again and again and again). I’m glad you’re learning how to use the interweb. Learn more about MIBOR (the Metropolitan Indianapolis Board of Realtors)

Environmentalists are realizing now that with their communist leaders printing money at record paces that our nation will be be completely devoid of trees by the year 2012. It would be ironic if it weren’t so sad. But there’s a solution that I’m sure was the the idea of some coastal pseudo intellectual who thought [...]

Turns out God reads this blog. I received an email that says: “May God find you and touches your heart once and for all to stop the attitude you’ve taken upon you with this web site to condem many.” It was from “email@god.com” so I gave it some attention. It was also from the same [...]

Sloppy and unethical SEO’s are walking a fine line between competitive SEO and committing crimes. I’m getting a lot of queries for some terms that most wouldn’t see on this site for the posts containing those words are now deep inside. I’m also getting a lot of hits from known ip’s that are watching and [...]
