The Jing-YouTube Quandry

Thursday, May 1st, 2008

Why, oh why, can I not shoot a Jing video and upload it to YouTube?
Jing is so darn easy to use, and it’s the first tool I grab when I want to make a “down and dirty” video of less than five minutes.
But apparently, since the output is an SWF file, YouTube won’t take it.

Plone: Promising Content Management System (CMS)

Wednesday, September 26th, 2007

I have been looking at the various free CMS systems out there.
The one that has currently caught my eye is Plone (www.plone.org).
There are others: Drupal, Joomla, XOOPS. Apologies if I didn’t mention your favorites. Oh, and people are also using Wordpress for non-blog applications.
I like the look and feel of Plone, right out of the [...]

Jay Abraham on Getting Everything You Can Out of All You’ve Got

Wednesday, August 29th, 2007

Though Jay Abraham has a legacy of thousands of pages of training material and probably a thousand hours of audio, to my knowledge his only printed book is Getting Everything You Can Out of All You’ve Got.

Saturday, July 7th, 2007

I was just reading Tim Knox’s new book, Everything I Know About Business I Learned From My Mama, and he mentioned herding cats. I remembered this funny commercial. It makes me laugh so hard every time I see it:

Just watched this film on DVD, and boy is it a winner!
If you have ever felt that your efforts are falling short, or if you’re wondering if you can really make it in whatever you’re working to achieve…

It’s that good.

Talking to your kids about money

Thursday, November 30th, 2006

If you can help your kids have healthy attitudes towards money, you will have given them a special gift. Kids today normally learn very little about money management in school.
I was recently explaining to my children that when you take out a mortgage, you pay mostly interest for many years. I figured out what I [...]
