Moving Up and Moving On

Over the last three and a half years, I have had quite the adventure at the University of Missouri…going from a 11′x13′ un-air conditioned cinder block dorm room in the honors college with a 3 a.m. bed time before ROTC exercises at 5:30 a.m. to a stint as student body vice president, Friday nights consisting [...]

My Twitter Stats…New and Improved

So a few weeks ago, I posted a screenshot of my twitter stats (along with just about everyone else that uses twitter like a drug) and it was a pretty basic outline of usage that would make any designer or aesthetically inclined person cringe…but all that is about to change! A newer version of [...]

How Much Is Your E-Mail Account Worth?

Apparently on Monday, Charter Communications was doing a sweep of customer email accounts to delete inactive accounts and managed to accidentally delete 14,000 active accounts as well.  The company says all the data contained in them is irretrievable and that is “sorry”….so they are giving all affected customers a $50 credit on their next bill.  [...]

Strumming My Guitar On The Dusty Trail…

This post really has nothing to do with my guitar (which I just got 2 days ago without knowing how to play it…it is now my most prized possession) or any kind of trail with excessive dust issues. It’s just that at this moment, I am sitting at my iMac strumming my guitar and [...]

Traffic Through Trackbacks

So when I first started this blog, it took me almost 3 months to figure out what exactly a trackback was. And now, oddly enough, I have been asked three or four times in the past couple weeks to explain the concept and each time I forget to include something. So, I figured [...]

A Plain-English Guide to the Facebook Terms of Use

NOTE: Due to a server crash in mid 2008, the screenshots associated with this post are no longer available, however the text still does a good job of covering the Terms of Service.  I will be writing an updated post in the near future.  Sorry for the inconvenience. -ac
Over the past few days there has [...]

Facebook Gets Serious About Politics

A little over a month ago, it was announced that Facebook and ABC News were teaming up to deliver ABC political content to facebook users via the US Politics application and I was pretty skeptical that the partnership would deliver any tangible benefit to users or that it would catch on beyond the die-hard political [...]

My Twitter Stats

I’ve been gone for a couple days and I’m frantically trying to catch up on RSS reading and twitter updates, etc…but the first thing I noticed when I got back was all the chatter about Twitter Stats, a new site that generates basic graphics about a user’s twitter habits. It is pretty rudimentary and [...]
