  1. Blogging Audiences and Feedback

    Chris Yeh has put together his theory behind blogging. It’s clever. It makes sense when you read it. In short: the more you talk about, the less focused you are, the less readership your site will enjoy. In other words, if you don’t write for a niche you won’t be “successful.”

  2. Budget your time like it’s your money

    Actually, I think the title should read more like: “budget your time nearly the same way you should be budgeting your money”. If you know me then you I’m a) an accountant, b) a big fan of personal finance, and c) looking for new ways to be productive. I’ve found a secret I’ll share with [...]

  3. Monday Mystery

    I want each and every one of you to help me solve this one: How the hell did Cars lose to Happy Feet? Seriously, I’m curious as to what made it better.

  4. San Francisco Vacation

    This weekend I decided to return to San Francisco. I figured the first time (only two weeks ago) was strictly business so I needed to go back and see the sights. Plus, Noah was celebrating his birthday and I couldn’t not be there. Thus, I left for SFO on Friday morning…

    Wednesday again already? Grab an umbrella, I’m about to pour on some knowledge. Uranus’ satellites are named after Shakespearean characters. A historical allusion to the later-removed “Jail Scene” from The Tempest.

  6. I’m sick and drinking tea

    I magically got a little sick (I never get sick). My throat hurts. It’s not good. Luckily I’m a guy and it’s okay for me to clear my throat profusely about a dozen times an hour. Additionally, we’re allowed to spit up anything we find back there. Gross? Sure. Sense of relief? Definitely. Anyway, one [...]

  7. WordPress 2.1 Rap

    So, I got a little bit of free time and decided to make a quick song dedicated to the new version of WordPress. Colin had the brilliant idea of using Nelly’s song “Air Force Ones’. So, I did this a number of weeks ago thinking I’d have time to make a video. I don’t. So, [...]

    Ready for a bit of topical, humorous trivia? Well line the floors with bubble wrap, I’m about to drop some knowledge: 15% of U.S. women send themselves flowers on Valentine’s Day. It’s so compelling it has to be true.

  9. Community Next Wrap-Up

    My favorite question asked on Tuesday was ’so what did you do this weekend?’ because naturally my non-nonchalant response was ‘put on a 350-plus-person conference’. If you don’t know, Noah Kagan had planned a terrific conference and I had the pleasure of helping out along the way. If you want to know what everyone thought [...]

  10. What does love really mean?

    Again, it’s that time of the year. Nothing says love better than a bitter cold month of snow and fog. So, February aside, what does love mean to you? I’ve been asked the question once or twice before and I’ve taken a new approach. Here are some of my thoughts on what love really means…

  12. Weekly Update #5

    Whoops, it’s already February. I have no idea how time has flown this fast but it has. As I get older the more I understand the phrase “Time is relevant”. The more time I’ve experienced, the less it takes to pass in the future.

  13. Monday Musing

    I’ve done some polling, a little bit of research and the evidence is overwhelming. The worst thing about Super Bowl XLI was: All of it. Bonus musing: Why do we allow car companies to create commercials?

  14. Valentine’s Day Cometh

    It seems to be that time again: Valentine’s Day. The holiday most of us are forced to celebrate unwillingly. Why don’t we feel as compelled, if not more, to celebrate the useful holidays like Arbor Day? (Thanks, R).
