Making Blog Posts Interesting…

So in no particular order, here are some things [...]

I've Been Thinking...

I’ve Been Thinking…

It’s been quite awhile since I have made a post here on my blog and you know it isn’t because I haven’t been working, enjoying or pondering.  The fact remains that we all seem to get so busy that we just let things slip.  In my case, Projects Possible was one of the casualties.  
So, [...]

Wine Cellar Tracking...

Wine Cellar Tracking…

First of all let me say that I am NOT an expert when it comes to wine.   I know what I like and I drink what I buy.  I am not really a collector, and I don’t buy wines with the intention of selling them at a later time for a profit.  So why [...]

New Theme "Options" – Cleaner Look

You have probably noticed that I am sporting a new theme on Projects Possible.  This theme – called Options – by Justin Tadlock is loaded with some great features and yet it is quite simple to setup, configure and run.  Some key things that I really like:

New Bloggers Beware of Spam -1500 and Counting…

Shameless Self Promotion – A Link for a Link

I recently read an article about blog and website promotion where the author was offering tips for bloggers to help increase their traffic.  One of the simplest of suggestions was to simply ask readers to link to you and you do the same for them.  So the purpose of this post is to layout the [...]

Blog Host Change - Apology and Retraction...

Blog Host Change – Apology and Retraction…

In the past month I have had two full weekends that the blog has been inaccessible due to problems at my webhost – Flexihostings.   I was left no alternative, after another full day today where they could not resolve the problem, but to change webhosts.
This evening I moved the entire blog, all images, databases, etc… [...]

Projects Possible has decided to host a Blog Carnival on Email Productivity. 
To set the stage I think it is important to understand what a “blog carnival” is.    If you look at the Wikipedia link you will see that a “blog carnival” is a blog event.  It is described a really nothing more than a [...]
