September 20th, 2008 · 1 Comment

It amazes me that E-bay can continue to get worse. (look at the stock price) I had a shitty experience with a lying user when I sold my jet-ski and now with the mixer I sold on E-bay last week. I’ve sold over 20 items in the past 4 years and have received 100% positive […]

September 19th, 2008 · No Comments

Obama vs. McCain

September 15th, 2008 · 4 Comments

I don’t understand how the race can be “neck and neck” according to traditional polling, yet all of the online tracking indicates that Obama has a much greater following.

Hurricane Ike Aims at ThePlanet’s Houston Data center

September 12th, 2008 · 1 Comment

One of the nice things about having data centers in Michigan is that we are far from hurricanes. One of our competitors, ThePlanet, have a Houston based data center that was struck by an explosion last year and is now in the path of Hurricane Ike. Below is what their hosting evangelist has to […]

ADHDRoadmap.com does an endrun around Pharma TV Commercial law

September 8th, 2008 · No Comments

There is a commercial going around from ADHDroadmap.com that looks to be an information public service announcement but is actually an advertisement from the makers of Adderall.
