Hacked!

I’ve been battling with my site. It was hacked and I’m trying to fix it. I was using a theme called Cocomonio, looked great but I’m thinking it has something to do with the hacking. I switched to this, my old theme, and the paragraph talking about loans and such is gone. Here I am [...]

A couple of days ago while I was browsing my Facebook wall I came across a news article that I found interesting . As it’s usual in many sites and blogs I could only read the first paragraph, at the bottom there was a click to “read the article”. I clicked on the typical button [...]

I’m on the plane on my way back to Vancouver from the Google Seminars for Success in Atlanta. The crowd in the Google Analytics 101 and 201 was great.

BestBuy Santa Commercials Were Mean

Jose Uzcategui — Sat, 31 Dec 2011 05:50:43 +0000

It was the season to be merry, sharing and giving, but not for BestBuy. Instead, they mounted a campaign against Santa. Apparently they were cheaper and better than Santa and just couldn’t help but to be complete d*cks about it. Sharing and giving? No, eating Santans’ cookies and kicking decorations off rooftops… Yeah. Very nice [...]
