Andrew and myself discussed this a few days ago actually, and we came to a pretty quick conclusion that getting in touch with him was a good idea.  He might be thinking the same – see:…[Read more]

The only cool bit of this is the link tracking.  I like that.  I like it so much, we may code it.  However, I don’t think my employees will let me jump down that rabbit hole with 4 scheduled in person speaking engagements this month.

It’s always been explained to me that building these kind of sites are more successful when you try to go to a local audience (ie. city, state). How would you do this for (I pulled this one out of your list). 4. (Video Game) Cheats   m…[Read more]
