In case you are wondering why I am being so lazy with my blogging, there is a good reason or should I say many reasons. I have very busy with planning a large personal event. Also for the first time in a very long time I am taking two consectutive weeks of vacation at the end of August. Everything should be back to normal by mid-September.
See ya then.

Last week Reese Spykerman chatted with me on my GoodKarma radio show about website designs. As a follow-up to her interview, here is a guest post from her listing all the great resources she mentioned (my apologies to reese for screwing up her nice looking formatting, i’m still learning wordpress).
Browser/Design Specs
The specs you use, on everything from resolution (width of the design) to color choices should be dictated by your site’s primary audience. Read the rest of this entry »
Recently I received a question from a listener of my GoodKarma show about Adsense arbitrage. Since my friend George Kepnick at Dotted Online has researched this area, I asked him to do this guest post answering the question. Thanks George 
I’ve got a question for you…
Do you have any Adsense arbitrage sites?
George: No Comment, but I will tell you I have a few sites that make money from AdSense.
I’m curious how people are tracking conversions on PPC campaigns where a conversion is defined as an Adsense click. Obviously w/ a 100% affiliate link site you can track conversions back to specific keywords by passing SIDs…but I’m struggling to figure out which PPC keywords are producing in an Adsense arbitrage model.

Dr. Robert Rey aka Dr. 90210 attacked an 80 year old man as he stormed into first class right before the plane landed. “When you get a black belt, at that stage your brain just clicks into action,” Dr. 90210 said. “I restrained this gentleman in a very aggressive way without hurting him.” He also said he checked the vital signs of the 80 year old man. Crew members described the man as “very frail”.
WTF, I understand everyone is on edge when they fly because everyone is a possible terrorist but to have to get physical with an 80 year old? Yes those 80 year old men can be frisky and he did push a flight attendant and make a big noise. But come on! If Dr. 90210 is a black belt than he should know how to restrain a person without being aggressive especially when the person is 80 years old and “very frail”.

Despite having over half a million servers sold in China last year, Chinese officials have made it illegal to run an email server unless they grant you permission. The punishment is a fine for about $3750 USD. Which may not seem like alot of money but do you really want to upset the Chinese police?
