In my typical heel dragging fashion I’ve waited a week to jump into a debate that is by now probably completely out of the minds of most who were involved.  Although really, that isn’t quite fair to myself.  The subject of the value of followers and their role in my twitter experience as a...

I am google’s biggest fan. No really.  Google’s seemingly, endless capacity paired with its A+++ search tool is a hoarder’s dream come true. Exhibit 1:  The 2,000+ e-mails in my inbox for my main (personal) e-mail account. Who knows how many more e-mails I’d find, archived away, if I ever were to click on...

I wish I lived in London. If I did, I’d want to go to the Virtual Worlds Forum that was originally scheduled for October 6 – October 8, 2008.  Unfortunately, a shooting caused the event to be postponed until further announcement.  Maybe someone can buy me a pass for when it’s rescheduled?  Or, maybe...

what was your first screen name? i hope it was something along the lines of: “anfbeachbumxoxo14″ or “tennistar4″ or “doggyluva33.” If you are traditional and just had a “Initials/Birthday/Year” then don’t even bother posting because you need to reevaluate your personality and creative side. inspiration: KTB506 (kimbo the bimbo + address)
