MySpace – I’ve Had Enough
Here’s what I just posted on MySpace: I have had enough of MySpace. I’m giving it up soon. I know I’ve built a small life on here, but it’s not real. I already have my own place on the web – http://www.kunefke.us/blog – where I can share my life with anyone interested. I devote too…

My Perspective of iTunes 7
I’ve seen some people upset about their recent “upgrade” (they’d call it something else) to iTunes 7. There have been problems with iTunes purchased music not making it’s way over, music not playing correctly, and other stuff like that. I’ve also read that Apple is granting a one time allowance to re-download lost content that…

Digging PayPerPost
I found this Digg story by a fellow PayPerPoster. You can get to it HERE. Dan is right about the fact that advertising dollars are more valuable if they are going to regular Joe’s like myself. Creating a buzz about new products is much more valuable because it lets people add usage ideas and collaborative…

Hurricane Tracking
I may have posted about flhurricane.com last year when I was tracking Rita, but I had to post a link again. I was curious about where Ernesto was headed, and this one shows the average route from all of the routes predicted by several forcast models. Check out this Map of Ernesto’s Path. I looked…

I Got Paid!
I posted a few weeks ago about PayPerPost.com and that post and a two others since then have been PayPerPost entries. I have been paid $20 for those posts combined! I have received my money and was surprised to find that the site really is legitimate. I have used some other services in the past…

MySpace is Up
Ok, the site is back up, and I’ve had no glitches today since it started working again mid-morning. I also heard on the radio about some power outtages in California because of the heat wave they’re experiencing. I just got through working out… I mixed it up a bit, and it feels good right now. …

MySpace is Down
Around 6:40PM last night, Tom posted a message on the homepage of MySpace.com stating that a power outage took out the MySpace servers. They were hoping to have everything back up within an hour, but it took them a few more hours than they expected. I browsed a few times during the day today and…

Daily Goal Tracking
I was doing my daily routine of browsing Digg, and came across this wonderfully simple tool. Joe’s Goals helps keep track of how your days are going, based on how much positive and negative stuff happens throughout each day. You can keep yourself in check by allowing friends to see your status. http://www.joesgoals.com/ The application is really…

New Yahoo Maps
I did a search on Google for an address in Nederland, TX this evening and Google Maps tried giving me a result that was miles from where I knew the address had to be. Google’s results were almost in Groves. I clicked the back button, and Google at least has the decency to link the map…

Sending Messages to the Unknown
There’s a site that allows you to submit your blog to be transmitted into space. It’s kinda neat to think about really. http://www.bloginspace.com Imagine that some alien species gets their first contact from earth, and it’s a blog entry talking about politics, or the world working together to end AIDS, or a rant about an…
