May the Light that shone
from the Christmas Star
On that night so long ago
Fall on you this Christmas night
and set your face aglow.
May it shine from your eyes.
May it rest in your mind.
May it burn in your Spirit bright.
May the Peace it spoke to a weary world.
Bring joy to your heart tonight.

Normally, each Wednesday, I recognize a “Blog of the Week.” This week I’m a little late. But it is only fitting, due to the Christmas holiday season, that we recognize the occasion.
During my research and reading this week, I came across a very clever rendition of “The Night Before Christmas” in “The Best [...]

For so long, I have ignored MySpace and considered it to be a place for punks and sleazy women to hang out and discuss their latest drunken weekend bash. There is plenty of that happening on MySpace, but there’s much, much more.

From a sense of deep fear after reading Brian Clark’s article, “Affiliate Marketing Disclosure Now Required by Law?” I feel that I must make the following disclosure:
I am an affiliate of the Wordpress Adsense System. When I wrote my first article in promotion of the Wordpress Adsense System, I had not yet received any [...]

The other day, Andrew Wee suggested a free tool to me that quickly and easily pings my blogs to several directories all at the same time. The tool is called Pingoat.com.
Pingoat describes what they do as “a service that pings or notifies a number of services that keep track of weblogs and publish [...]

I always wondered how those 6 digit RGB color codes worked and what they mean. While doing some research on the topic, I came across this article that does a great job of describing it. It is quite facinating and really very simple. Read on…..

It is noticeable in my previous posts, that I have become quite an advocate of useful, original content. If a blog or website has something of value to the reader, and is positioned properly, traffic will come.
That said, I have to give kudos to Robin Good for identifying the hypocracy of the week. [...]

Recently, I read a post by Andrew Wee entitled “Tips for Profit-Oriented Bloggers“. His suggestions make a lot of sense to me and I have spent the past several days strategizing and re-positioning my blog. I’ve made several changes and have several more left to be completed.
My first change was to remove adsense [...]
