For every dollar earned from the sale of an [...]
Gas prices being what they are, getting to work (or looking for work) has never been more costly. Even those with relatively short commutes are feeling the pinch of high gas prices. Some employers are doing their bit by allowing some workers to telecommute or telework. But, that won’t work for everyone. If your job [...]
If you’re wondering what’s with the super short posts you’re now seeing on the site, they are my “Tweets”. Quick little thoughts that I share on the fly via Twitter, a micro-blogging platform (more fun than it sounds).

I just got my very own better-than-anticipated Wii Fit. I love this thing! It’s like a mini-gym (a wee Wii) and the world’s cheapest adventure vacation in one!
On my way home from breakfast, I picked one up at Circuit City. I took it back to my office (Yes, I’m lucky enough [...]
I’m constantly researching something! I visit dozens of webpages in a day, hundreds a week–each for a different bit of information.

Yesterday, one of my favorite electronic shows, the Consumer Electronics Show, kicked off with much hoopla, including Bill Gates’ final keynote as Microsoft chief. But, for me, it’s the gadgetry that glitters. Here’s my first pick for best gadget. It’s the BUGbase and BUGmodules (collectively called BUG) by BUG Labs.
I’m buggin’ out!

This year’s best item is the Careersthatdontsuck.com Career Gear Tee! Okay, this is a selfish favorite. [...]
Amazon unveiled it’s new wireless handheld reading device, the Kindle, on Monday. The device is a thin, white device no thicker than a pencil that weighs in at 10.3 ounces. The Kindle allows users to read newspapers, novels and everything in between on it’s 6-inch screen. The Kindle has a 600×800-pixel resolution [...]
Last month, Apple released its much-anticipated Mac OS software update, Leopard. I know I’m a little late announcing this, but my point here is not a belated birth announcement, but a celebration of the fact that it does something my Windows Vista software does not–it works!
