If you don’t know, I have 2 blogs. This blog (jonespc.com), pretty much a PC tech oriented blog with tips and talk about PC’s, the internet, software, games etc. Then theres Jonzee.com which is a gadget, shopping and product information blog. The traffic I get on both blogs are pretty similar, but Jonzee.com gets a [...]

Everyone is talking about the Microsoft Yahoo potential merger lately. I think there are some obvious good reasons for them to merger, and of coarse when dealing with Microsoft, there are always bad reasons. Put that merger aside for a minute. Think about all of the other companies out there, all of the other sections [...]

When I use to use DNN, I created several websites for clients that were looking to find a low cost way to bring thier brick and mortor store to the online web world. A solution I found was the CATALook.net store module for DNN. The CATALook.net store is really a full featured option. You can [...]

I started blogging in late 2006. My first blog was a Dotnetnuke blog so I had to have it hosted on a Windows based server. The company I was using was ASPnix. They were a highly recommended web host and I didn’t have any problems with them unless I had a problem. That doesn’t make [...]

The incompatible software somehow got corrupted so it wouldn’t uninstall using your regular automated uninstall method. After trying [...]

I re-install Windows about every 6 months. Ive always done so for as long as I remember. Another thing I always do is accumulate a long list of bookmarks, or favorites as you would call them in IE. When I re-install Windows, every once in a while, I’ll forget to save my bookmarks. That really [...]

Do you use Google Reader? I started out using FeedDemon as my RSS aggregater. later on I went to Bloglines. For a while now I have been using Google reader. I really liked Bloglines but for some reason I felt that It would be in my best interest to switch over to Google. So far [...]

Christmas is over. Many of you have gotten new PCs for Christmas I know. With your new PC, I’m pretty sure many of you are using Windows Vista for the first time. Guess what, some things will not work. Vista has gotten a lot better when it comes to software and drivers, but there are [...]

Every since I started using Wordpress, I have seen some weird spam. Some I have to say is very creative. Not the content in the spam, some of that is down right disgusting. Its the way the spammers try to get around the spam filters (thanks for Askimet). The spam Im talking about comes via [...]
