The LeadAce Manifesto

The world needs a better way to exchange real live business referrals and leads.

That’s what is at the core of our latest project, LeadAce.

Many of you reading this have, for years, thought that Adsense was the end-all be-all of referral systems, and that may be true for certain types of businesses.  However there is another world out there that many tech professionals, like myself, may not realize exists.

There is a world where professionals (like doctors, lawyers, insurance salespersons, consultants, and more) pay good money every day to be referred to parties interested in their services.  Many… Continue reading

I’m Not So Sure I Believe This (Bing It On)

I received the following image via email today from Microsoft, entitled “Bing it On”.

 

Now, had they said that double the number of users get their search results delivered via Bing, I would believe it. This because, having years of experience administering Windows systems, I know that Bing is the default search provider in pretty much every Windows platform still running. I can imagine that there are lots of non-techie people who changing their search defaults never even occurs to, just like it probably has never occurred to most people to exchange their factory headlights for aftermarket HID lights.… Continue reading

Apple’s Think Different aka The Greatest Commercial Ever Made

This is Apple’s Think Different commercial from the 80′s. I never saw it when it ran on TV, but looking at it now I have to wonder if anyone involved in it’s making realized just how poignant and true it’s words would remain 20+ years later.

Kudos to Apple and kudos to the late great Steve Jobs.

Stop and Frisk

By a happy series of coincidences I arrived at reading this post by Zeeshan Aleem about, among other things, the NYPD’s (New York Police Department) publicly acknowledged practice of stopping and searching anyone they choose, regardless the presence or lack of any “suspicious behavior”  or other probable cause whatsoever.

In a nutshell the article asserts that the NYPD, at their sole discretion, can completely humiliate you and intrude into your most private spaces (yes, including those private spaces) simply because an individual officer and his partner choose to do so.

I’m not outraged, however.  And that lack of outrage is… Continue reading

The Author Life

So I’ve been a published author now for over a year and it feels pretty good.

Ok. Wait. Let me unpack part of that sentence a bit:

 

“I’ve been a published author…”


The truth of this statement depends on your perspective.  To stuffy old publishing industry types, being a published author means that you have “paid your dues” in one form or another and have successfully convinced, cajoled, or outright threatened an established publisher to fund your life long enough to churn out a physical book.

I didn’t do that.

Instead I took advantage of the tools available to… Continue reading

Color Codes

Well, after two late nights, I’m ready to show it to the world.

First, though, let me explain why I built it.

I was very dissatisfied with the selection I found of color reference sites geared toward web designers, graphic designers, and coders.  Most of the color reference sites out there are old, outdates, and obscure in their explanations and details on different colors.

So, in pure hacker fashion, I decided to build my own.  The result is Color Codes Dot US

If you like it, like it, link to it, tweet about it, and above all, donate to it.… Continue reading
