Facebook P/E Ratio 125, $50 Billion Valuation

Facebook’s financials are not so private any longer as Goldman Sachs has released unaudited financial reports to high net worth investors who are being offered up over $1 Billion of Facebook stock. Based on the partial 2010 earnings figures, Facebook had net earnings of $400 Million on $1.6 Billion in revenue. These numbers just seem too good to be true [...]

Black Friday 2010 – Walmart Price Matching!

I have just heard that Walmart will pricematch any item if you have the advertising circular in hand at the register. This is a pretty big deal and could mean an easier time getting certain things at the world’s largest retailer that may sell out faster at smaller outlets like Target, Sears and GameStop. Some of the top electronics deals [...]

My Verizon Smartphone Dilemma – Droid X vs Droid 2

My “New Every Two” promotional discount becomes available tomorrow and I am seriously torn between the Droid X and the Droid 2 for my next smartphone.

Verizon vs. AT&T Wireless Television Ads

I’m getting a little tired of the back and forth jousting and taunts between Verizon Wireless and AT&T over their respective cell phone coverage. For the sake of full-disclosure I am a Verizon customer via the Alltel merger. The problem I have with these attack ads is not their frequency, it’s the claims and comparisons that are being made and [...]

UnblockYouTube.com – Back To School

With the kids heading back to school comes the return of Proxy Season. I ventured into operating web proxies a couple of years ago and have had moderate success. Due to the arrangements I’ve made the operation is quite passive, requiring very little time on my part, the advertising revenue just gets deposited into the bank each month. I am [...]

My Black Friday Shopping Experience

I didn’t get up quite as early as I wanted to, but arrived at Walmart at about 6:30am and had some difficulty finding the electronics items I wanted because they were not in or near the electronics department. By the time I arrived I found out that the blu ray movies and ps3 games were already gone, but there was [...]

Professional Web Design

I am the type of person that doesn’t want to bother with design, simply because I’m no good at it and would rather work on the content or overall project. So, because of this preference I find it useful to seek out professional web design for certain complex projects. You have most likely heard of Network Solutions, a company that [...]

Cuil – New Search Engine

Cuil (pronounced “Cool”) is the newest search engine to hit the Internet. Cuil was created by some former Google engineers and has a goal of indexing more pages than any other search service, which it claims to have already done. I’m really not a fan of “more is better” because I’d rather get relevant results rather than hundreds of thousands [...]
