Happy Birthday…to Myself

Sunday, March 2nd, 2008

Today is my 16th birthday. So I guess I’d better get busy if I want to complete my list of things I want to do before I’m 18, which are: 1. Have a short story or novel published. 2. Make at lest $100/mo off my blog. 3. Start a web design business. As some of you may know, I’d like to not need to have a “normal” job, and instead make money via writing (online and offline) and design.

A “Nice” Scraper Site?

Friday, February 8th, 2008

There’s someone scraping WSC again. However, they’re not republishing the entire article, just the first few sentences. I’m getting backlinks from it, so I probably won’t worry about it. :D
