- Comments open on blogs
A few comments on comments.
[caption id="attachment_394" align="alignright" width="300" caption="This is a dofollow blog"][/caption]When I go to a blog or website and discover the comment section closed, I come to one conclusion:
They do not want comments on their blog.
That is fine, I am happy with that and I know where I stand. I now know they [...]

- A little link love for some new sites and a few old favorites
Spending my life on the internet, I discover all sorts of interesting stuff along with the rubbish out there. I have written before that I think 99% of the internet is rubbish, and it is always my goal to continue to create worthwhile content instead of adding to the garbage pile.
Welcome to the internet, Riviera [...]

- Spam Spam Spam Spam
One thing I get sick and tired of is spam. It is the bane of everyone’s internet life. Especially as I want to be able to be contacted. If I write something on one of my blogs, or on any of the other blogs I have been paid to write at, I am not bullshitting. [...]

- Social Networking Sites - Enough yet?
It seems every time I talk to some one online, they are talking about the latest “social networking site” and how great it is for backlinks and traffic zzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
So, mid way through a forum conversation at one in the morning, having drunk too much wine, I rashly decided to set up my own. I quickly [...]

- Mark Knowles is a douchebag
As a full-time professional blogger, I expect the occasional disagreement with people in public. This is normal – I disagree with people in real life, so why should it not happen online?
I clashed with some one recently. No big deal and quickly settled, but despite the fact that we both agreed it was a mistake [...]

- Creating a WordPress CMS Content management system
The Wordpress Blogging platform just keeps getting better and better as far as I am concerned. I would hardly consider using anything else to build a website now. With a little CSS knowledge, you can make it look almost any way you wish, and with some pretty minimal website building knowledge you can create a [...]

- First Airbus Crash
If I needed reminding that I should no longer adhere to the maxim, “If all else fails - read the instruction book,” this is it. Apparently ignored by the main stream media, here are some photos of the first A340-600 Airbus crash in Toulouse, France. Der Spiegel reported it when it happened, but that was [...]

Happy 4th July to all my American friends - and I would remind you all that
I still want my country back !And in the immortal words of John Cleese (supposedly), I will reproduce the “Notice of Revocation of Independence.”
To the citizens of the United States of America, in the light of your failure to elect [...]

- Connecting A Sony Handycam to a Mac Computer
Those of you who read my professional blog at Luxury Property will know I like to have a little fun pointing out what I consider to be horrible real estate videos posted to YouTube.
Well, some one has called me on that. Shaun Stanley, the Luxury Film video guru, pretty much said, “It’s all very well [...]
- Naked Women Playing Football Will Get You Banned From Digg !
To the rest of the world, google’s refusal to place advertisements on pages showing women’s nipples while at the same time plastering advertisements for “Sexy Singles,” all over the internet is at best amusing, at worst, well, I don’t even want to go there. Having had one of my blogs banned from digg because there [...]

I usually watch the American trends, and I gotta say - you guys search for some strange shit on google. Celebrity deaths? WTF dude?
