Man-day Post: The Death of Blogging- Part 1

In Blogging, Man-day by Jensguy

Have you heard the news?  Blogging is dead.  Every year people march out articles telling us that the era of blogging is finished and the “new thing” is ready to take over.  Generally, they are selling something or just crying for attention.  I especially love it when they make the pronouncement on a blog (very post-modern.) But the claim is …

Man-Day Post: Alexa Toolbar, Yea or Nay?

In Blogging, Man-day by Jensguy

I hate toolbars. As a tech professional who gets called in to fix ailing computers the first thing I often notice is that the offender has so many toolbars on their browser that they can barely see any content. And, nobody, not anyone anywhere, has purposely set Ask.com as their default homepage. Not even the guys who work there. Just …

In Man-day by Jen

In Man-day, Parenting by Jen

Let’s be honest, there was a lot of hairspray sold in the 80’s and early 90’s.  The volume was such that there is probably little doubt that serious damage was being done to the environment.  Right now, however, we are going to highlight the mullet (A.K.A the Kentucky Waterfall, the Mississippi Mudflap, or the Canadian Passport.)  We will list out …

Man- day Post: The Last Days of Facebook

In Blogging, Man-day by Jensguy

It’s time for this week’s edition of Man- day from Jensguy. Artist Andy Warhol once stated “Everybody is famous for 15 minutes.”  The same is doubly true of technology.  Every piece of important technology will get superseded eventually.  Companies that have once ruled the world will fall away like the Ottoman Empire. Which brings us to Facebook. It is hard to …
