Senators and the Internet

I am glad Senators know what the are talking about…. Recently, I read a news story in which Sen. Ted Stevens (R- Alaska) states why he voted against Net Neutrality. For those who don’t know what is going on, part of the senate is trying to make it so a few big companies control in the internet. The Net Neutrality…

New Job

Tomorrow I start my new job as a XHTML/PHP Developer for a local company. While I don’t want to give any details about what/where/who it is (in fear of getting Dooced), I will say I am very excited/apprehensive.

(No Image b/c their logos are copyright protected and they would most likely actually sue me…) An online company, Blue Hippo, trying to get the best of the not-so-tech-savvy.

The Super Size Me guy

The only reason I am witting about him now is because he is making “waves” in the news again. He is working on a new documentary: Morgan Spurlock, the brave soul who ate nothing but McDonald’s for one month and filmed it for his documentary Super Size Me, has announced that his next project will be The Republican War of…
