My Browser of choice for the last 3 years has been Google Chrome. I originally started using Chrome on my last Windows laptop back in 2008. It was completely free, incredibly fast, very secure and saved my bookmarks and passwords to the cloud. Chrome was light years ahead of all the other browsers out at the time. When is was time to use the MacBook full time, Chrome installed and all my bookmarks easily came with it. But now, with all the...

Google Suspending the Google accounts of possibly fake accounts with no warning… Ok bloggers, and anyone else who has a lot invested in Google services… be careful with your Google account.

Privacy was not an issue. Today all I worry about is facebook and how much...

Traditional SEO is Dead For all you bloggers out there I’m not really telling you anything new. Traditional SEO is dead and we now get most of our traffic from the facebook like button. The analytics for this blog alone shows that for every one person who found my blog through a Google search, 8 people find me through the Facebook like button.
