health care tax - effect of eslf employed
Tech/science:
So I am sitting with my family and the kids are watching Nickelodeon while I am on my laptop. But then they started talking about URL Transfer Documents. I can't help but watch. They had a whole show about a credit card failing to renew a domain and some kids' quest to get the name back. It's the only time I haven't heard the word domain or cybersquatter detailing the process. Was quite amusing. The show was called 'iCarly.com' or some such. Who would have thought that could be the content of a TV episode?

Funny webhosting site
So I like twitter. It's no secret I think it's a neat platform for me to write applications. So I register quite a few accounts for my various websites and personal uses.
I've written a few bots (@WhoisBot and @StupidBot for example) and generally like to make accounts for my websites (@ProxyHost) but this caught me off guard.
Just noticed candy.com is now on CJ.com. Very quick to develop, quite impressive.
