- Tips For Developing Facebook Games
[Internet-and-Businesses-Online:Social-Networking] The Facebook Platform has created a whole new market for online games and start ups such as the Social Games Network (SGN) and Zynga. I wrote about developing Facebook Applications a while ago as a overview of my experiences. Some of my apps are games and some are not--I'm a game developer so I prefer making games.
- Protecting Wealth in This Economy
[Finance:Wealth-Building] I write a lot about inflation. It is amongst the greatest evils in the world as it robs us invisibly. Unfortunately, it is not a very popular subject. Our economy has been getting worse and worse with each passing day. Prices have been skyrocketing in everything we buy--some relief may lie ahead with the recent correction in oil. With inflation and economics being such an uninteresting topic to most people, I figured I'd write about something we all care about: money.
- Applying Programming to Life
[Self-Improvement] I never knew I would be doing so much programming professionally. I grew up wanting to be an artist. Drawing was my thing; I drew a lot and loved doing it.
- The Reason For High Gas Prices
[Automotive] I live in New York City so I don't really have to drive anywhere if I didn't want to but, I do have a car: Nissan Altima with a decent MPG. My frequency of driving has gone quite far down since prices have started spiraling out of control.
- The American Way
[News-and-Society:Politics] "Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government" - United States Declaration of Independence We often forget what it means to be Americans and usually that means we forgot the American history that we were taught in school. Every reputable textbook on American history has a copy of the Declaration of Independence and Constitution in it.
- The Amazon Tax - Bad For Us
[News-and-Society:Economics] I made a purchase on Amazon about a week ago and while I was checking out, up came this message that told me starting June 1st, 2008, Amazon would have to collect a sales tax for New York State residents. I had heard about this "Amazon Tax" a few weeks prior and was disgusted by it.
- How I Got Into the Game Industry
[Business:Careers-Employment] Not long ago, I was a starry-eyed kid who wanted to make video games for a living. I grew up with Mario and had every Nintendo home console from the Super NES forward. I was even one of those entrepreneurial types who made fan sites. This is my story.
- The Moral Case Against Global Warming Policies
[News-and-Society:Environmental] How odd that someone would make a moral case against global warming. The trend is to promote it as a just cause. Global warming is presented as a problem that we should be doing all we can to fix or life as we know it will be no more. The so called "science" that supporters of global warming use to justify their position is anything but settled.
- Inflation - The Worst Tax
[News-and-Society:Economics] I had recently read a news article about a bill in the Senate that is designed to solve the root of the current housing crisis: foreclosures. My initial commentary on that article was not flattering to Senator Dodd and Senator Shelby. The fact of the matter is that these two gentlemen are missing the real root of the housing problem: inflation.
- Developing Facebook Applications
[Internet-and-Businesses-Online:Social-Networking] I've worked on several Facebook Applications since the beginning of the year and although none of them have been massively successful hits, I've learned a couple of things about developing Facebook Applications. Hopefully, I can share some of what I've learned and experienced. I'm not going to talk much about the technical development process but instead, more of the marketing and business aspects.
- The Revolution - A Manifesto
[Book-Reviews:Politics] Ron Paul has been called the Thomas Jefferson of our time. I am sure that Jefferson along with Washington, Franklin, Adams, and the rest of our Founding Fathers would be pleased with the ideas brought forth in The Revolution: A Manifesto.
