I have a crappy blogger blog called the One Dollar Challenge. The blog is all about my attempts to use a free blog to generate one whole dollar of revenue a day. I’ve had a reader ask if I could make the blogger template I use on that site available for download. So in the [...]

YouTube is cool. Self promotion and all that. The free hugs campaign has hit Oprah. Kids love it. But now YouTube seems to have taken the place of the ye olde Church confessional. I signed up at pay per post a while back to see if it’s work for me. It’s one of those “paid [...]

Children of Men is described as a dystopian thriller. Set in the year 2027 the future looks bleak. The entire human race has become infertile and no one knows why. All hope seems to be lost. Anti-depressants and suicide solutions are dispensed on a mass scale. The youngest person on the planet is 18 years [...]

Stephanie McIntosh, Neighbours starlet and wannabe pop-rock star released her first album a while back.

From what I can gather, she’s trying to go?for the whole Avril Lavigne/Veronicas style chick rock thing.
I’d heard about her live performance [...]

Bean Bag Boy has me playing God of War on PS2. You are basically this little dude that runs around with a couple of swords slicing and dicing your way through a whole heap of demon things. Actually they may not technically be swords, they don’t look that long… how long does a dagger or [...]

After watching Kenny on Sunday, I decided to give another Aussie comedy a go on Tuesday night. Sadly, I probably should have quit whilst I was ahead.
BoyTown is the story of a middle aged guys reforming their once popular boy band. Most of the humour comes from watching a bunch of mid 40 year old [...]

I’ve written about on-line marketing and search engine optimization (SEO) before. It’s an area that I have developed a bizarre interest in. SEO can almost be treated as a game. A geeky game, but a game no less. The SEO Blog is basically an SEO news site, capturing all sorts of stories relating to Google [...]

MySpace is a pretty big deal now, especially if your into music, or promoting your music. My Chemical Romance and Lily Allen are two of the best examples of artists taking advantage of the free benefits that MySpace can offer. It’s got to the point now that if your in a band and you don’t [...]

The film Kenny plays out like a documentary, following the exploits of Kenny Smyth (played by Shane Jacobson), as he goes about his business. Kenny Smyth is a good natured Aussie bloke, typical of many working class Aussies. He’s an average guy, working an average job for an average day’s pay. Overalls are his uniform. [...]

With the weather warming up the spider population will soon be out in full force. Contrary to what Hollywood movies may have led you to believe, not all spider bites will have you turning into a superhero ala Spiderman, as the photos I received in my inbox today will attest. These pictures are not for [...]
