So Chris, Mike, Matt, Eliza and I headed to Philadelphia for the Webloggers meetup as well as other activities. This meetup was kind of bittersweet for me since there was so many people that attended it wasn’t possible to get even just a few minutes with each person to "meetup". When we first arrived Jen…

I read on TechCrunch that some people are not happy with Google’s nomenclature regarding "tags" or "labels". Personally, I prefer to call them "keywords".

Not that they are bad or don’t work, I just prefer a flat, miscellanea pile of tags rather…

For those of you not living anywhere near the Northeast, or that do not catch the headlines, we’re at the tail end of a five day flood. Normally, we get hit with flooding a few times a year. Nothing severe usually, since much of the area I live in is thousands of feet above sea…
