Ustream videos not working? – Fixed!
While trying to watch a conference via Ustream, I found a horrible discovery — the site would no longer load video.
I tried Internet Explorer (IE8), Firefox and Chrome. Nothing.

No video on the site would load.
YouTube worked. Vimeo worked. Facebook video worked.

With every member writing and commenting, it can become hard to know who’s writing what, or what context they’re coming [...]
Sticking my toes back in the water
Well, the book is basically finished.
Other than finalizing the cover, I think everything is ready to go to the press. In fact, I plan on releasing a version for Amazon’s Kindle next Tuesday – Dec. 1. So if you have a Kindle, or their desktop software, you’ll be able to purchase a copy of [...]
The Anatomy of a Tweet
Several people have commented that they see my Tweets (Twitter updates) pop up in Facebook, on my blog, or other places and they don’t have any idea what they mean. So, I thought I’d break it down a little to help you understand the anatomy of a Tweet.
