Back in Black – blog upgrade

Buster — Tue, 06 May 2008 03:12:27 +0000

good things to come my friends… you’ll notice i finally completed a long overdue blog upgrade… and website upgrade for that matter. i cut out a lot of fat and modernized some things! i hope to turn blog commenting back on in the near future. also, you might notice some ads from time to time, i plan on keeping it extremely limited… i don’t think you’ll ever see ads (for revenue) on my blog homepage… only on archives and individual postings.

2007 Wraps Up – Bring on the 2008 Resolutions

Buster — Fri, 28 Dec 2007 17:41:34 +0000

i hope you all had a great Christmas, Hanukkah and holiday season! 2007 is almost in the history books, and i hope you had a great year… i did. in the past year i’ve decidely come up with some new year resolutions… and i’ve never really set any serious ones before… so you know i’m getting older (hopefully wiser).

so here are some things i hope to resolve in 08:

- Sleep Better (already working on this one, i’m in the process of testing out a Tempurpedic Mattress… i’ll blog with results in the near future)

- Update My Blog Software (spam fighting has gotten better in the last 2 years that i’ve had comments disabled, so i’m looking forward to bringing comments back)

- Vacation More (did you know in Europe it’s very common for the average worker to have 8 weeks of vacation per year… i’m soooo jealous)

- Refocus More Energy on My Business (don’t worry TicketCity, i’m still gung-ho and excited about my future there)

- Give More (i’m blessed and i absolutely need to give more… just not to the Federal Government i think i give enough there)

so there ya go… now you know where my head is at. if you’ve got any goals for the 2008 year i wish you the best and hope you overcome the challenges that you face along the way.

Have a Happy New Year!!

NFL Fantasy Football 2007-2008

it’s almost that time of year… when those who cannot do… own fantasy football teams!!

james runs a great fantasy football blog over at… where else… fantasyfootballblog.net. he and a few other commissioners and team owners keep it pretty well updated with all kinds of fantasy football news. you’ll find NFL fantasy football articles about every subject in the fantasy football spectrum.

i’ve already got catch up on my reading… becaue i see that the fantasy football blog is already running a couple of interesting articles… stuff that espn and espn2 and fox sports have yet to start discussing.

fantasy football draft day is right around the corner and i can say from last years experience… draft day is THE most important day of the season… unless you’ve got a bunch of traders in your league… sometimes you stick with what you pick til the end… because it’s better than the battered up free agents… and a week too late streakers.

so… if you wanna win… get the latest fantasy football news from the fantasy football blog!

don’t forget to actually get out and watch a game in person…. buy NFL tickets at TicketCity.com

TicketCity.com has a new website

as some of you know i’ve been working very hard the last several months on a major re-creation of the TicketCity.com website. i’m happy to announce that the new site is ALIVE!! we’ve built an architecture that will give us amazing scalability and increase time-to-market for new features big-time. our competitors i’m sure don’t have any clue what they’re up against, but i promise that they are up against the monster!! we’ve still got a lot of performance tuning and basic features to work in… so there are still going to be a ton of changes over the next 2 weeks… so if u think the site might be a little slow or missing some ‘basic’ features here and there… don’t think that we don’t know or have forgotten… we just felt confident that we had enough of the site solid enough to replace our old site.

i’d love to list out all the new features we’ve added… but for any onlooking competitors i’ll just let them take the time to look for themselves

anyhow.. i’m relieved, happy and looking forward to taking the site to the next level!!
