We are searching even more services so that you don’t miss anything your customers are saying and we’re adding more [...]
BlueSwarm.com is live!
Finally, we’ve soft launched BlueSwarm.com. We’ve been working on this project for a few months now and we’re proud to finally have something that the general public can play with.

FriendFeedback.com – Quickly get anonymous feedback from friends
I’m proud to announce the launch of FriendFeedback.com. A simple application that lets you quickly and easily get anonymous feedback from your friends. The idea is that if you want some feedback on something from your friends, they may not always be willing to give you an honest opinion to your face. This application lets [...]

Craigslist.org OPML Exporter
When I first started freelancing I was looking for a way to get an RSS feed of all the computer gigs on craigslist.org for every city in the USA. Since most of these postings were telecommunting position it didn’t matter what city they were posted in. But grabbing the feed manually from 300+ cities on [...]

I found a relatively easy way to do this using the power of TextMates Regular Expression Search and Replace. Once the form is created I submit it, dump the $_POST [...]
Top 15 TextMate Shortcuts
TextMate by Macromates is by far the best code writing/development tool I’ve ever used. Not only is it awesome at face value, but the depth of features and extras make it the ultimate productivity booster when developing. What’s equally amazing is how it accomplishes this with no bloat. If you spend any amount of time [...]
The New Office
After a month or so of working from home I’m back to working an office. This week I secured about 100 sqfeet of office space all to myself. It’s small and at the moment doesn’t even have a desk, but it’s got some nice windows and most importantly it’s quiet and my own space. I [...]
My Absence from Blogging
I know that my readership is in the single digits, and therefore not many people have actually realized that I haven’t blogged a thing since September, nearly a three month absence. The emails begging me to continue posting never came. But it’s to be expected, this is a personal thing that I’ve kept up when [...]
