When you “see” your SEO counterpart at that food blog not-so-subtly work a key phrase into his recipe description. Respect.
A while back I setup a WordPress website called BrianNelson.pro on Amazon Lightsail as sort of a proof of concept and as a way to get some experience with WordPress on Amazon Lightsail. The idea was that by running a website there, I could see if that would be good hosting for WordPress sites I … Read more
Update: It seems (so far) that scripting a stop and start of the Spooler service can eliminate the need to turn the printer off and on. At least as long as you don’t print too much during the automatic scheduled task interval. – Will add new post when I have more data to go on. … Read more
I’m an old school tech junkie from way back. Not punch cards way back, but green screen terminals way back. I can’t resist new toys, new technologies, and new idea. However, I’m also practical. As a father, small business owner, and freelance financial writer, my hands are full. So, when it comes to trying out new … Read more
Sometimes, you can just see the money fly by. I’ve been thinking about, not seriously, but enough to have it rattling around in my brain, about writing an article about Patreon Alternatives.

Well, I finally went and did it. After years of threatening, and always finding a reason to back down, I’m finally cutting the cord on cable.

So, by now, you’ve probably heard of Ello. Ello, which I’m guessing is “hello” without the h, is a new, privacy-focused social network. Specifically, Ello has picked up traction recently because of Facebook’s real name policy and the fact that commercial social networks such as Twitter and Facebook sell out your information in order to … Read more
Twitter has come under some scrutiny lately after people started noticing that Twitter was essentially turning some of your favorites into retweets. Most people instantly reacted that this was a terrible idea and that Twitter should be ashamed of itself. While it’s true that Twitter should be ashamed of the half-hearted way they handle abuse … Read more
Once upon a time, I was a super-techie. I knew pretty much everything about any piece of technology I used. Partly, it was my job, as a high-level systems administrator, but it was also a love of gadgets, computers, and electronics. However, my Samsung Galaxy S4 is officially driving me crazy. I have Sprint. Yes, … Read more
So, I tried Fiverr for the first time. (I never remember which letter to double Fivver? Fiveer? or Fiverr? Inevitably, I have to Google it.) The gig was supposed to be delivered in 7 days. The guy marked the gig as “delivered” on day 7 and said that it would actually take 2 or 3 … Read more
