If You Don’t Get One For Xmas Get Yourself a Digital Camera
I know the title of this post sounds pushy but you really won’t regret it. [Unless you by a super cheap one with with only one megapixel resolution that is.] I was a diehard SLR user who refused to go digital. I never thought I would be happy with the quality of a digital camera.…

Site Pal Cool Idea But Too Expensive
I received an email with one of those talking avatars – Site Pals. They are made using a service from oddcast.com. They are a pretty cool idea an animated figure [person, animal or alien] welcomes visitors to your site in your voice or someone else’s. But the lowest cost is $10/month. That is pretty steep…

Got Batteries To Go With That Gift?
Christmas time is coming and now is the time for getting all your gifts. If you are like me your list is comprised mostly of electronic items.

Faulty Keyword Information from Velocityscape’s SpyFu & GoogSpy Sites
I stumbled on this site [googspy.com] today that supposedly tells you who is using Google Adwords for their sites and what ranking those sites are getting with certain keywords. Funny thing is both my sites show up on theirs saying I paid for the keywords, but I have never paid for a listing in Google.…

New Mouse in the House
I just picked up the Microsoft Wireless Notebook Optical Mouse 3000 and I rather like it. Although I cannot seem to figure out exactly what makes it a notebook mouse over any other mouse. Maybe it is a little smaller than the other ones, which I like. Seems as if most of the Microsoft Mice…
