State of the Union

Tonight, I watched the State of the Union address. While President Bush makes a few good points, a lot of the points are lacking in my opinion. For example, he discusses the push to get off of oil and other polluting agents to reduce our reliance on Middle Eastern countries. This is great news that [...]

Apple vs. The Postal Service

I love it when tiny groups of people try to take control and publicly flame a larger company in hopes of getting compensation and/or getting their way. For example, BellSouth wants Google to pay for preferential treatment on their network. Stupid, right? Well this time, it’s the musical group The Postal Service (who I won’t [...]

Pet Peeves

This ought to be fun! Often times, I go on websites out of boredom and to give me something to write about (read: make fun of). Making fun of other people at their expense is what I specialize in at times. Take what you will from that statement, but I’m the most caring, respectful person [...]

Featured Music: Vel Crowe Johnson – One Ticket

Here’s my idea. Each week, I’ll post a song from my music library that I like and think others should know about. This week, it’s from White Devil. Don’t know the artist? It’s probably because he never gets played under the name any longer after his record company urged him to change the name. Formerly [...]

XM Satellite Radio Usability Study

So for one of my classes, I’m doing a usability study on a site of my choice. I chose to crtique XM Satellite Radio. Basically, a usability study of a site is what is good, what is bad, and what needs to be improved. Before a site goes live, the design of the site is [...]

Trip to Philadelphia (part 3 of 3)

The last stop on the trip was to PixelWorthy in downtown Philadelphia. The company is a spin-off of Electronic Ink. The place was pretty cool looking as well with orange walls. The designers talked to us a bit about their current projects and past projects, namely Decibel Magazine – A Metal/Hard Rock Magazine. It’s pretty [...]

Trip to Philadelphia (part 2 of 3)

The second portion of the trip was to PowerDesign.com. They are a small business that specializes in designing websites, CD-ROM’s, and other web-related aspects (including E-Blasts – e-mail marketing for a company in that they design the ads). The small team of designers there have designed sites for clients such as… …Comedy Central, Glaxo Smith [...]

Trip to Philadelphia (part 1 of 3)

Today, I took a trip down the road and then to Philadelphia with my art class. It was pretty cool – it’ll be broken down into 3 separate posts. Basically, the class I am taking is a web design class. So, the trip was to a hosting company and two web design companies. The sites [...]

Maybe It’s Just Me…

Maybe it’s just me but this really annoys me.When websites or people in affiliation with a website or person post on the internet and say “Vote for [person/website] for the winner of [this contest]!” In my book, that gets a vote for another website or person. It’s, in a broad sense, fraudulent and skews the [...]

New Website!

Please hang in there with me while I update from Nucleus CMS to Geeklog. This site is very basic right now and I am working on updating and transferring all of the information if at all possible. There will be a lot of dead links and you’ll just have to use the search to find [...]
