Testing LightBox 2: My Garden
Here’s a cool plugin referred to me by Rico. You can download it here. Click on the thumbnails to see LightBox 2 in action. What does it do? It scans your posts for linked images and makes a nice overlay popup out of them. This is much better then linking to a new window oder…

First online ad network?
Yesterday I physically introduced PTB owner Abe Olandres to some guys from K2 Interactive, a nontraditional ad agency that goes beyond traditional tri-media.

Why am I getting traffic from Disney?

virtually moving stuff around
I didn’t realize it would take so much effort trying to move six websites from one server to another. In the span of one week I have supervised two server database moves and several DNS refreshes due to misunderstandings and other technical anomalies.

How expensive is your hobby?
I swear, being a geek has its downsides. You tend to spend a lot for your hobbies. I recently caught the photography bug after buying the 350D I’ve been wanting since December. After being able to save for it, I went ahead and bought several accessories such as a Velbon tripod, a Sumdex camera bag,…
