Quite some time ago I signed up for a website named Meebo. This site gives you the ability to log into quite a few different chat names – AIM, MSN, Yahoo!, ICQ, Google Talk and Jabber – at the same time. I came across my account with them when I was attempting to find a Firefox add-on dedicated to MyBlogLog and BlogCatalog – it’s kind of annoying having to log into the site manually and with all of the Firefox add-ons out there, you would assume there would be something. FYI: There isn’t at this point in time. So, why…more»

For the past few hours a few different phone numbers have been calling the house. Originally I thought it was merely a prank but supposedly I’m not the only one receiving these phone calls. If you see any of the numbers show up on your caller ID, please be sure to avoid answering the phone. These numbers have been widely known for calling up to 15 times per day, and based on a few of the threads I’ve found in regards to it, a lot of people are effected by it. I’m going to log into comcast in a few…more»

I’ve finally upgraded the Mac to OS X Leopard.  I have to say that I’m really enjoying it so far.  As far as functions are concerned it’s really no different than OS X Tiger, but visually it’s gorgeous.  The new dock blows my mind, the speed has also increased.  I didn’t lose anything during the upgrade, which is a plus, but I’m noticing that programs are also loading a lot quicker than they were in the past.  I don’t know if Leopard has anything to do with that but it seems to be working that way for me so I’ll…more»

I’ve recently joined StumbleUpon.com, you can view my profile by going to krissyville.stumbleupon.com. It’s my hope to be able to get all of my favorite entry bookmarks in order, and even have the ability to see who else favors them as well.  Another reason is for networking, if I can find sites with a common interest I may have a little more to do during the day.  I’ve had to create another email address just to handle all of my networking sites, from blogcatalog & twitter to bumpzee and mybloglog and numerous other ones I’m receiving so many messages during…more»

I’m working on getting a lot of my Social Site Widgets up and running.  I’m a member of quite a few different ones, BlogCatalog, MyBlogLog, Twitter, and a few blogrolls that I’ve joined and unfortunately forgot about, so I’ll be adding a new links section to the site as well.  I don’t really like putting really long content onto the sidebar so I’m sure I’ll figure something out.  Right now I’m in the process of merging my blogcatalog account, I didn’t realize that I had acidgloss.net previously listed with another email address.  I went to add it to my new…more»

It took a bit longer than anticipated but I’ve finally completed the new template.  I do still have a few content-based sections to get up and running (featured articles and free templates) but that’s going to take some time when it comes to finding the right plugin and continuing things by going through my template archives and figuring out which ones I really want to have displayed in the free section. My job interview yesterday seemed to go well.  I’ll know more information about it soon.  I really hope I get the job, I like the environment and I really…more»

I was really productive today, so much so that I’m anticipating hopping into bed and drifting off to sleep.  There is still a lot to accomplish before that happens though and damn I’m really enjoying having so much to do. For starters, I have two job interviews lined up for Friday.  One for a full-time IT position with a local company at 9am and another one is a part-time retail position at a local store on the boardwalk at 1pm.  Based on what I’ve heard of the company looking for the IT position, it’s safe to say I’ll be pulling in…more»

I just came across a new site that my sister is bound to appreciate. It’s completely centered around hip hop news. It’s one-stop-shopping for any and everything you want to know about your favorite rap artists. It’s called rapartists.com and I have to say that even though it’s not my genre of music, it’s pretty well designed. Artists are easy to find through a simple search and the design makes everything easy to read so you aren’t dodging numerous different banner ads that normally would get in the way with a service like this. It truly was tastefully designed and…more»

I just loaded the bookmark on the car that I’m looking to buy to find out that it’s been sold. It hurts to know that I’m not getting the one I truly wanted but this isn’t going to stop me from earning enough money to go out and buy one. Sean said he saw me more in a black car than a blue one, so now it’s my mission to locate a black Chevy Cobalt and hope to not have to pay through the nose for it. I’m really not looking for anything too extravagant, I just know that for…more»

If you’re like me, you were lucky enough to be considered for bad credit credit cards. From the get-go I’m going to note that I don’t have BAD credit, lending companies look at me with the “Bad” eye because I have a little to non-existent credit history. I’m working on it though, I’m paying my loan, I’m paying my credit card and I’m making it a point to maintain an even flow of money to cover any out-going bills that could potentially effect my credit. A lack of payment on hosting for one month could send me to collections, constantly…more»
