Twitter Needs Amazon AWS
It’s no secret that Twitter has its hosting flaws. It was all over the ‘net this morning that the Apple Keynote Killed Twitter. Since Twitter doesn’t seem to announce its outages well, I’ll help them out a little here and tell you why they went down. I follow the Twitter Developers Group on Google, and […]
Read more...How I use Google Reader
I’ve been on the Google Reader band wagon for a long time now. I currently subscribe to about 150 feeds, and I read or skim over probably near 1,000 or more feed items a day. Reading my feeds is how I stay up on the latest and greatest, and how I am able to give […]

That’s right – you may now add Bebo to my list of expertise. You may notice there’s a new category to the right – “Bebo”. The popular website Bebo.com, that I guess one could compare much closer to MySpace than Facebook announced late yesterday night that they were opening up their platform to developers. Before […]

These Pink iPhones are all over Bebo.com. Is this a sign of things to come at MacWorld, or did I miss the announcement?:
Read more...The Path to Productive Applications on Facebook
Facebook just announced tonight that they will be releasing a “Profile Cleanup Tool” soon. The tool is supposed to make it easier for those with cluttered profiles to clean up the applications they don’t use on their profile. What do I see of it? I think finally you will see many of the applications that […]
Read more...CrunchGear – That was Uncalled For
I’ve been straying away from mentioning religion on my blog for awhile. Partly because I deal with so many religions on a daily basis through my Catholic Facebook Application, Baptist Facebook Application, and recently sold LDS Application. I love religion, and have grown to respect all religions as I strive to make this business model […]
Read more...Stay N’ Alive Has a New Design!
I’m proud to announce the new design of the Stay N’ Alive blog. Yes, that is me on a Segway, a little slouched, but my real, geeky self, having fun. I’m tempted to subtitle the blog, “A Developer, Having Fun!” Really, that is what being a developer is all about – if you’re not having […]
Read more...How to Create Your Own TV Channel for Your Blog
I’ve been considering doing this for awhile – we’ll see how long it lasts and when my wife puts an end to it. If you look in the upper-left corner of the blog, you’ll see the “Ask Jesse” Show stream. If I’m online, when you click play you’ll see me, live, as you are on […]
Read more...SocialToo.com — Your Companion to the Social Web
I’ve been working on a little side project lately, that I think will solve a lot of the headaches caused by lack of certain features in the Social Landscape. In the spirit of the book Jason and I are writing, my company, SocialOptimize.com is announcing the beta launch of SocialToo.com. What is it? It is […]
Read more...Rails Maintainers (and Users), Take a Hint!
It appears I’ve caused quite a stir in my post about asking Perl to step up. Joey DeVilla on Global Nerdy thinks I’m funny. Several Perl users, including Andy Lester (author of WWW::Mechanize) have corrected me on the fact that it does not require testing for modules to be submitted to CPAN – I stand […]
