xkcd – A Webcomic
The words billion and million have been used a lot recently. It takes a sharp ear and a keen mind to always hear the difference. Xkcd, an online comic, has put up their feelings on the issue or clarity. Click to enlarge.

Migrating Websites (like WordPress!)
I just recently completed the migration of several websites to my new web server (Fedora Core running Apache/MySQL for those who will inevitably ask) and after much trial and error I believe I have a solid “manual” for completing the task. I’ll try to get it written up and posted, but until then feel free to shoot me a message or leave a comment if you need help!
Style by Jacquie – Visual Shopping
Stumbled across an interesting shopping website this week. Style by Jacquie provides an unique experience allowing customers to visually browse a huge selection of clothing and accessories. Its an interesting idea and may yet work, but I wonder about the SEO (search engine optimization) capabilities of such a site. I feel they’ll be needing someone like me in the near future to drive traffic. But once they get the traffic I have a feeling they’ll have a higher than average conversion rate.
