Ok. I like hilarious, pop-culture-phrased t-shirts as much as the next guy (well maybe a little more). But this new site I found takes the cake. Game over for everyone else. They sell these 100% cotton pre-shrunk t-shirts for only 6 dollars! Or if you’re kind of a big deal you can buy 10 for $50…that’s $5 a freakin’ shirt! …

Must-have WordPress plugins
As you can probably tell, I’m a big fan of WordPress. I’ve used a few other Content Management Systems (like Joomla, Drupal, PHP-Nuke, etc.). But I’ve found that for internet marketing, WordPress is simply hard to beat with its ease-of-use, maintenance simplicity, and the huge community support of free plugins and themes. So, here’s the list of plugins that I…
The BEST domain name generator

Let me list the reasons… It’s FREE It’s got a name generator > Creates pronounceable names using language rules and parameters It’s got themes >Combines your keywords with preset wordlists It’s got a spinner > Combines various methods of search It’s got a dictionary > Looks for word…
Steps to make your WordPress site more secure
Here’s a bunch of pointers that I gathered from various sources and use myself for each WordPress site I create. It’s assumed you have a decent understanding of web servers, FTP clients, and IP addresses. Ya never know when you might write a post that pisses off some random hacker in Czechoslovakia who decides to delete all your work or…
SU.PR from StumbleUpon
The more I learn about this new service being developed by StumbleUpon, the more psyched I get. If you haven’t heard of StumbleUpon, they are one of many social bookmarking websites, but they are unique in the fact that they offer users the ability to just browse or “stumble” through a never-ending list of sites recommended by other users. Pretty…
Vegas, baby!
So I took a break from all this IM shit and went to Vegas for the weekend. It was a friend’s bachelor party so I couldn’t be “that guy” and not show up. Had a great time…still recovering my health and catching up on my sleep. While I was there I was feeling a bit guilty about taking 3 days…
I originally hated Twitter
I’m not gonna lie to ya – when I first found out about Twitter I wasn’t impressed. I’m the guy who has NEVER (no lie) set his FaceBook “status” because I didn’t want all my friends knowing where I was or what I was doing 24 hours a day. As far as I could tell, Twitter was just like a…
Netfirms vs. GoDaddy (domain registrar)
I’ve been using Netfirms as a domain registrar now for a couple years. So far so good! They’re cheap ($6.99 / year!) and the site is easy-to-use. Well, actually…my only complaint is that I wish they would allow registration of .US extensions. I’m not entirely sure but I’m guessing it’s because they’re based out of the UK and registrars must…
Bitchin’ FireFox Add-Ons
Here’s a few of my favorite FireFox Add-Ons, in no particular order: Session Manager Holy shit is this ever a MUST HAVE Add-On for everyone Allows you to save one or more windows (containing multiple tabs) as a “Session” Tracks the state of your windows and tabs if FF crashes Keeps a history of all closed windows, in case you…
Free Directory Submitter App
This is what I use for submitting my sites to website directories. I know there’s a debate about how useful “directories” are for improving search engine ranking, but it’s hard to argue with the benefits of getting a bunch of 1-way backlinks for free. Some people complain that directories are a waste of time because “they’re sooooo 1999” (ie. Web…
