Confessions of an ex-music pirate.

I remember when I first got an internet connection at home. I paid for it almost in its entirety, from the phone line, to the dial-up package, and the computer itself. The family only helped me out in getting a monitor for that computer, and that was fairly cheap. I discovered sites like Riffage.com, which [...]

Microsoft snags TellMe.

(With credit to GigaOm.) I was checking my news reader this evening, since I decided to not go back to the shelter immediately after work. I came across one header in my reader that caught my eye, and caused me to frown for a good few minutes, simply because I’m not sure how to react. [...]

There’s another surprise up PayPerPost’s sleeve…

It looks like while I’m running around here, looking for money and a place to stay, the guys at PayPerPost (surely, you remember the people who found ways to grow blog traffic and put a little money in my pocket, yes?) have hinted at some big news. The last time they did something like this, [...]

Therefore, I’d like to remind readers [...]

TechCrutch [sic] beats another dead horse.

@buzz@ So, I’m cruisin’ the ‘sphere this morning, and pop in on my WP dashboard to check the news and latest PPP offers. I spotted that once again, [tag]Mike Arrington[/tag] is going on and on (again) about that paid blogging craze known as [tag]PayPerPost[/tag]. It’s like he has a hateboner or something over it.
