I must be the only webmaster in the world who doesn’t jump for joy, drool and watch my tongue roll out of my mouth at the mere site of a tag cloud. They’re boring, quite frankly stupid when compared to just typing in a search term. OMG is that even possible? or Maybe I should [...]

Sometimes you cannot get away from a domain name..

I tried yet again to move my blog to a different domain it worked for about 2 weeks. Now I’m back to my original domain name, BigDan.us. It’s sort of become like my own identity online, I’ve got so much stuff tied to this domain, links posted for other people to reference and the like, [...]
Vista Install Round 5
February 24th, 2008

Yesterday marked the fifth time in the little over three weeks since I purchased this computer that I have reinstalled Vista. It’s no fault of HP or Vista really it’s just my own indecisiveness. The first format was to install XP but text looked like crap on my screen even with the drivers from HP. [...]

Here are a couple of pictures taken from my front porch during our umpteenth snow storm this season. Click for full size, it looks a little more picturesque if you ignore the power lines.

This is an update to my last blog entry about how much 1and1 sucks. About 10 minutes after my post I got an email stating my hosting package was canceled. Later on I got 2 seperate emails, 1 was this months bill for the hosting plan ($14.99), the second one was a credit notice that [...]
1and1 SUCKS!

1&1 is the worst online company I have ever had to deal with. The sad part of it is I already knew this and still signed up a for another hosting account with them. It all started with me wanting to conserve some resources on the VPS where I host my DJ Forum. Figuring I’d [...]
vBulletin 3.7.0 Beta 5 Released
February 20th, 2008

A little late but better late than never. Jelsoft released vBulletin 3.7b5 on Valentine’s Day February 14th. This release is primarily a maintenance release for bug fixes but a new feature made the cut. Conversations, profile comments are now threaded like a real life conversation. The best comparison is Gmail’s conversation feature which works much [...]
Media and Negativity
February 17th, 2008
No Comments
For the longest time I’ve ignored television news and turned to Google News for almost all of my news. Quite frankly, I’m tired of the fluff; a 5 minute segment on who the next American Idol is going to be is not and never will be news. Other than that my second complaint about media [...]
Welcome to my new blog

Hi All, Welcome to my new blog. I decided to put a free domain purchase to good use and finally jump into a .com, while this isn’t the name I really wanted (bigdan.com), bigdanee.com will have to do. My old blog is now redirected here so you should have found me easily, the old posts [...]
