Woah.

I’ve been spreading myself pretty thin lately and as a result, my creativity is suffering and my writing mojo is gone, for the time being. I won’t have a new post on here for another few days. Need to get back my inspiration!

Rubix Cube Captchas & Bad Model Homes
Linkedin

I thought this was perfect for my WTF Sunday. Captchas are evil. Honestly. Half the time I can’t even figure out a Captcha because I think there’s some kind of weirdo trickery going on. Since when do they use DASHES?! Maybe they always have but I’ve never come across them. This showed up on my iPhone when trying to login [...]

Tips for Privacy in the Social World

This is gonna be a short post- just trying to gather some opinions. Pretty much, I’m going through and trying to re-evaluate how much privacy I actually have online and I’ve been sifting through my online footprints for a little while today.

Part 1: Pushing Team Productivity and Action (an Ode to Making Ideas Happen)

Making Ideas Happen is a genius book and I’ve been utilizing it to its fullest- it’s great for anybody within any kind of business to take a peek at.

I thought I would share it on this site too… either for some comic relief (for all you nay-sayers) or intrigue from anyone who has had weirdo situations like this happen to them. First, let me preface this [...]

Facebook to streamline pages (finally)

For a while, there wasn’t that much of a difference between the fan pages and profile pages, other than the explicit “like” or “become a fan” button and ability to customize your tabs/content if you knew FBML and application development. Normal Facebook users don’t know that language (or development) so it makes no difference to them. I really hated this about Facebook- [...]

Attn: Gmail. Stop Looking so 2000.

This is a completely useless post. Sorry if you came here looking for something awesome, but it’s 2 AM and I’m beyond sleepies. I feel like Gmail adding a ton of crazy awesome capabilities and lab features lately… but what the hell is with their choice of interface? I feel like everytime Gmail does some kind of visual update, it [...]

Mini Post-it note children, OCD and tech, OH MY!
Post-Its

I wrote a guest post on Freelance Folder the other day (which I’m super ecstatic about, by the way, because I’ve been wanting to post on there FOR-EV-ER! after site stalking) and was getting a bunch of positive and interesting comments on there. Pretty much, the article was about how pen and paper can slow productivity down and hold you [...]

Pickles the Panda- Office Style

And here we go again. Pickles the Panda. Grooveshark isn’t telling me that it loves me anymore, but it’s mocking my terribly timed “that’s what she said” attempts. GROOVESHARK. I <3 YOU.
