I went to the Bellevue Entrepreneur’s meetup tonight and met some interesting people.  Some of them had legitimate businesses and some were what I dub “human spam”.  One woman was selling diet pills that allow you “to lose weight with no exercise or changes in what you eat!”.  Another man was involved in a multi-level marketing scheme selling holiday cards.  … read more “Human Spam”

Merchant services is one of the most confusing parts of running an online business.  Right now, I find myself asking “Can one merchant services account run multiple websites?”  I have done some research and found a few options.

News has just broke that Michael Jackson, the legendary pop star and friend of children everywhere, has died of a heart attack.  Thanks to my younger brother for giving me the news on Michael Jackson.  I am looking around the interwebs to see what other news on Michael Jackson’s death there is.

TMZ has reported that Michael Jackson died of cardiac arrest at his home and staff at hospital nearby were unable to revive him.

For the last few days, I’ve been sick and haven’t gotten as much done as usual.  Got home after work today and did a little bit on my side projects and am now watching “Satan’s Little Helper”… such a terrible movie lol.  Probably going to turn it off as soon as I’m done eating these nectarines.

I am trying out outsourcing some menial personal tasks to someone over an internet connection.  Tasks like blog commenting, article submissions, basic site testing and other stuff will be done by a helper instead of me.  Hopefully, I will find someone reliable and trustworthy to take care of this stuff.
