Google Indexing Speed

Some time ago, I wrote a post about switching one of my Google-step-child-sites from a hand coded site to a Joomla site. I made the switch because I originally hand coded the site several years ago and things have changed since then (and I’ve learned a lot since then). Not to belabor the point (for [...]

Playing with Tiny URL’s

Sometimes when I’m supposed to be working, I’m not. As part of my goof off time, I ended up on the other side of the internet. I can’t say how I got there, but I ended up at TinyUrl.com. If you have twittered or tweeted, you’re familiar with tiny URLs. Since Twitterers can only insert [...]

NaturallySpeaking vs. Vista Speech Recognition

If you have already upgraded your system to Windows Vista, then you’re in possession of a valuable freelance writing tool.  As you know, I recently purchased a new laptop equipped with Windows Vista.  While I’m proving not to be a huge fan of Windows Vista, I must admit that I think I’m smitten with their [...]
