Shut the fuck up about HTML5 vs Flash and evolve.

If you think HTML5 is going to kill Flash, go fuck yourself. If you’re defending Flash as the final solution to the web and think HTML5 has no chance, go fuck yourself with a jagged stick.

RCN Chicago. (Suck My Balls)

I went to the RCN comments section of their site. I was trying to play a trailer on Hulu for the new Karate Kid movie. It kept stopping. A two minute trailer kept stopping. I just started typing and this came out…

The F Word (part 2)

In a clear attempt at appeasing me, the creators of South Park have just aired their latest episode entitled ‘The F Word’ which deals with the same subject matter I was talking about last December. The episode deviates from my Internet anonymity targeted discussion and delves into the realm of Harley Davidson riders. I’ll have [...]

Unordered Lists Need Headers

Tables have <th> the property to signify the header of a table row, yet unordered lists have no way of signifying a title in their listing of information. It would be useful if there was a tag to signify the heading of such a listing of data. <uh> perhaps? Just a thought.

Targeting: A Mobile Audience

In today’s agile technology industry , we strive for ways to target audiences. In the advertising sector we usually hire others to do the work for us (Google AdSense). We invest a portion of our expenses towards advertisements, wait for revenue to start rolling in, and eventually repeat. On the other hand, if we’re not trying to sell anything and want to spread a message or promote ourselves, a paid option might not be feasible.

In my eyes there’s a way to do both, in your own time and without expensive overhead. In this part of my “Targeting” series, I want to share some advice on targeting a mobile audience.

No, I don’t want to super-size that.

The new Mac Mini is here and at long last I’m finally willing to take the plunge and get one. But which model will I choose? Sure I could spend the extra cash and have a fresh Mini with 320GB of storage and 4GB or RAM at my doorstep for the low price of $924. But I think I’m going to have to pass on that one. Why? Because I can make the same upgrades on my own for $155, totaling a $754 investment.

Credit Crisis Visualised

When I first moved to America in 1998, I remember the concept of having credit being very foreign to my family. My father couldn’t understand why it was so difficult for him to lease a vehicle having no credit. In the UK and Europe having no credit was a good thing. I guess the U.S. just had to learn their lesson a little too late. I found the following video to be very informative in explaining the credit crisis in a visually stimulating fashion.

The Internet Hates Sarcasm

I suppose it’s my fault for “picking on” an internet celebrity, an attractive one at that. When you mess with the only girl that some five-knuckle-shuffler’s see on a daily basis and probably fantasize about living with, one can expect some sort of repercussion. Justine Ezarik (ijustine) is a popular blogger, micro-blogger, television personality and [...]
