New Year for the Frogs
It’s the end and beginning of yet another year, and not to seem non creative, but it’s time yet again to reflect and plan on appropriate sides of this annual stick in the ground. First, for the reflecting. This year has been a definite upswing over the last few. Family healthy LilF changing from elementary…

Blog posts not posting to LinkedIn properly
This has been driving me crazy for a while. I have several blogs that I run and work on to varying degrees. I noticed one day that when I try to share a post through LinkedIn, none of the image and meta data would come in. I would only get the blog name. When I…

Ark Update and Official Log: Day 33
Thankfully, the mood on board has lifted a bit. Most have accepted that we can only wait out the storm and then rebuild after. Some are taking it worse than others, but we are pulling together and will get through. Other developments and updates: The last hold out in the “I would never eat a…

Open .XPS file on a Mac?
I swear people do this shit just to be annoying. Let’s have open document types so that we can all communicate, but I have my own open document format that not everybody can read. The point is, if you need to open a .XPS file on a Mac, use your Gmail account (or someone elses)…

Customize ShareThis URL and Title
Here’s the problem. I’m putting on a webinar and I wanted to increase the social reach, so on the landing page for the webinar, I used the ShareThis tools to create share buttons. No problem so far. After people go through the GoToWebinar registration steps, they get redirected to a page that I specify, which…

More fun with testing
I’ve learned a lot from GLaDOS in the time we’ve been together, and fully understand her deep need for constant eternal testing. That’s why I have another one for you, if you are up for it. Web Voice Messaging Made (un)Easy The last one with Google Voice didn’t go as well as I had hoped.…

Google Voice Widget testing fun!
Remember when you actually talked to people with a phone? That was cool. You could ask a person a question, and get their actual answer RIGHT THEN. Of course, this is only if the call is clear enough for you to hear them, and stays connected. That brings me to this great feature of Google…

A Gear in Illustrator
Yes, I’m a moron who doesn’t use Illustrator much anymore. There have been several times where I needed a simple gear or series of gears for something and it was always a pain in the ass. It was never a massive part of the project, just a small additional element, meaning I never really put…

One step at a time
Every journey begins with a single step, and this year is no different. To start my journey off on the right foot, I took my first run of the year today. Not a big one, and I was dragging DogFrog most of the way, but I did it. We will learn and grow together, like…

A New Adventure Begins
If you look back a few posts, you’d see that I was between jobs. I say was between because I have just accepted a position at a company that I am very very excited about. I have been hired as the Director of Marketing for Heller Consulting, a great company that helps non-profits do their…
