Metablogging
I’ve been experimenting with Windows Live Writer a bit lately, using it to post not only to my Windows Live Spaces blog, but also to a couple of other free services, including WordPress, Blogger, and LiveJournal. I have sort of a love/hate (well, “hate” is a bit harsh, how about love/disappointment) relationship with Spaces blogging …
Share this
People blog for all sorts of reasons. For some, it’s akin to a diary. Others use it to push a viewpoint or share advice. There are those who are just desperate for any smidgeon of attention they can get. I’m probably somewhere in the middle. I don’t bother blogging unless I really have something worth …
What about Al?
Following the unexpected death of pop idol Michael Jackson, everyone is so concerned about his kids, his estate, and his family. But I’d suggest there’s a forgotten victim of this tragedy: Weird Al Yankovich. Much of Al’s early career was built on parodies of Jackson’s popular songs. For a time, he was known as a …
Man in the mirror
It’s hard not to sound cliché when writing a post about Michael Jackson. Let’s be honest, on the freaky scale of 1 to 10, the dude was about a 14. Amid allegations of child molestation, the evolution of his bizarre appearance, and his eccentric behavior over the last 20 years, it’s almost hard to remember …
Who are you?

This brand is my brand…
How valuable is your online identity? It’s a question that I’ve been asking myself a lot lately. I’ve had the same email account about as long as I can remember, but over the past couple of years, I’ve begun to realize that your email address is only one small part of your “brand identity.” Oh …
Irony FTW
Boy, those Redbox kiosks are everywhere these days. If you’ve never seen one, it’s essentially an automated vending machine that rents new-release DVDs for $1 per night. You commonly find them in front of Wal-mart stores, pharmacies, and fast food joints. I saw this on the way to work this morning: Things aren’t looking so …
Bring me the head of JJ Abrams
This weekend, my lovely wife and I ventured to our local Regal Cinemas, plunked down some $25 bucks for a pair of matinee tickets and snacks, and settled in to watch – neigh, absorb – Star Trek, the eagerly anticipated film in which director JJ Abrams supposedly “reboots” the original series. If you haven’t yet …
