Blog Review: The Sports Dollar

The Sports Dollar

At first glance, this blog appears to be a sports blog masquerading as a make money online (MMO) blog, but I could be wrong and it could be the other way around.

After Costa suffered tremendously with Blog Templates Reviews before revamping it, he decided to create this blog and I thought I'd help him out in getting it seen while the paint is still fresh (less than a month old).

PHPText Blogger: Pre-Alpha Software Notes

I'm working on a programming project as the sole developer of a browser-based software application. I've dubbed it "PHPText Blogger" as a working name because it's only using PHP and text files formatted specifically for this application.

In order to use this browser-based application on Windows or Linux, I only need to have a web server installed which includes the PHP software. I'm using XAMPP for Windows right now.

How to Become a Noble UV Minion and Like it

minion You don't have to look like the image to your left in order to be a minion. Minion is a term for favorites or protégés, especially those of a monarch or prince at a royal court.

So, what's the rush?

Necessary Time Off

frustration Do you ever feel like your rowing a boat upstream or climbing a hill that never ends? That's what I feel like sometimes. Well, I took 2 days off from posting anything at all so that I could put things in perspective. Usually when I take time off from posting, it's because I don't have a choice due to power outages or a lack of DSL connectivity. This is one of the few times I purposely didn't write anything.

Not only did I not write anything, I refrained from responding to comments and email messages as much as I could. I don't normally do that either. In order to see where I stand, I needed to ignore as many things as I could get away with ignoring.
