I was excited! I wanted to get the SERO plan as soon as my Verizon plan was over. It would be something I could actually afford and it would be quite useful.

They changed it.

Now the cheapest plan is $59.99/mo when it was only $30/mo when the plans are almost identical.

This is depressing.

The version of Lime Wire that you can download off of LimeWire.com for free lacks some features that Lime Wire Pro has, such as faster downloads.

You can get the free version of Lime Wire Pro on LimeWirePro.at.tt.

PunkItOut.com has been registered by myself for a couple of years now. It was registered when ‘Web 2.0′ was first booming and I wished to create the first lyrics Web 2.0 social website. Never quite getting around to it (maybe having tried and failed), Pligg is a nice way to go ahead and get it up fast, and make it look pretty later.

If you would like to try making a social website of your own, or if you like Digg, or have ever wanted a website such as Digg, go ahead and give Pligg a try!

PHP stands for PHP: Hypertext Preprocessor, I know, it says PHP in it’s own name - it’s just that crazy! PHP is a server-side scripting language. It can be used on a command line or embedded in HTML, where it is most popularly used.

PHP is probably one of the, if not the best introductory programming language. It is now an object-oriented language, so once you learn PHP, then learning  Java, C, or Perl will be much easier then if you were to try by itself.

The book I found most helpful - well, free book - was Practical PHP Programming. You can also buy this in a paperback book called PHP in a Nutshell. This is written by an amazing author named Paul Hudson. The only problem that I have with his writing is that I don’t like some of his spelling since he uses UK English.

The Hacker’s Diet is a very inspiring book for the overweight geek. Programmers, engineers, and scientists alike can all appreciate John Walker’s approach to losing weight. He takes an engineers approach. The only way you can lose weight is to burn more calories than you take in. He gives an easy and realistic way to lose and then maintain your weight for the rest of your life. He also supplied very helpful computer tools for you to use.

John Walker has now also come out with the The Hacker’s Diet Online. It just came out of private Beta invitations only so now anyone can sign up and keep track of their weight easily. I use this on a daily basis because it keeps track of how much I should be losing every day and how many calories I should be eating to lose the amount of weight in the alloted time.

This blog will review books, shows, movies, software, hardware, events, and basically anything else geek related. It will also give advice, and will try to answer any questions raised.
