Recently I wanted to make a tag cloud into a page and I went exploring for a couple of options.  I found several choices and try each of them, but each were not each to use and implement or required more plug-ins.  I didn’t want to install any additional plug-ins, but still wanted a to have one easy code to copy and paste into my page template that would generate a tag cloud on a page.  The following code is my own creation and seems to work great for Wordpress and makes a generated tag cloud page without needing to know any additional code, make any other templates, or install any other plug-ins.

SEO Web Design - Does Website Design Make A Difference With SEO?

Search engine optimization has become very popular again. It seemed to be the next big thing a few years ago, but most website owners were discouraged by the results and began buying traffic instead. The term for this practice is actually called ‘SEM’ or ‘Search Engine Marketing’, and it often gets confused with ‘SEO’ or ‘Search Engine Optimization’. The reason is that for many years SEO companies pushed clients into signing PPC contracts or pay-per-click links to generate traffic from search engines, and boasted this as their SEO strategy. Although it does produce results, it comes at a large cost, and tracking is often highly unreliable. This means that you are paying for clicks with no guarantee that they will generate any business- your account is still charged, regardless. Read more

Designing a website can be a very simple task, or it can be a very difficult task. The way to determine the process depends on the needs of the website owner and what goals they have for it. The reason a website difficulty depends on the needs of the client is because they will ultimately be the one who manages it and analyzes whether or not the site is performing to their expectations. This can sound simple enough but often a new website owner doesn’t know what they will need or want, so trying to calculate the future needs of the owner without them knowing what they are is quite a challenge.

PS2 versus PS3, Is PS2 Still King?

Posted on June 17, 2008

Every day there are more commercials on TV for PS3 systems and games. I had just bought a new PS2 at the beginning of this year. My old one had finally gone down and I wanted a new system. I was thinking about getting the PS3 and was looking at the model as well as some others in the market. I was surprised to find that at the time there still wasn’t that good of a game selection, and my display unit is not HD so I figured there wasn’t much value in that particular aspect. My only real reason for getting the new PS3 was to play one or two games that are only available on the new unit, but given the rest of the cons that go with it, I wasn’t really that impressed with it and couldn’t see myself buying one yet.

The past few days I’ve been having problems with my Skype Extras and the Skype Manager. I noticed it a few days ago when I signed in and couldn’t get my Skype Extras to work. The Skype Manager did open up, as I’ve read that others are having problems with the actual manager not working at all, and it seems that Skype is aware of this issue and has a couple of post about how to fix it in their Skype Forum. However, my problem was a little different in the sense that I could get the Skype Manager to open, but the only tools in there were the games section. I couldn’t get any of the other features to work, and the ones that I had already installed were not showing up at all. Read more
