I don’t know much about Restaurant System but I definitely know a lot about restaurants and because IJ helped a few restaurants in town and in the county to do their website. An example is a friend’s restaurant in town and I know they are using the best restaurant system for their POS, so they have little problems with running the accounts on a day to day basis.
As for web designing for the restaurants - the restaurant usually bring me in to taste their food and take pictures the food they are serving. I love doing the websites for restaurants for the owners are super good to me - and always gives me treats plus I do make a lot of money doing their websites.
Red box increased their rental by 20% as of today. So folks you are not getting $1 for 1 dvd now - sorry! no more cheap movies for you and in a few years - they will continue to raise their prices. And even though they reported millions in revenue - I think their overhead is just as high - and i’m sure there are people who don’t return their movies and they can’t just swipe their credit cards as easily as you think. So I don’t know how long they will continue to rent cheap dvds - we’ll just have to see.
Blogging is awesome to be honest - I’ve come to meet a lot of people that I wouldn’t have - if it wasn’t for blogging. I wouldn’t know what to do intellectually if it wasn’t because of blogging and because of blogging - I’m kept aware of things around me and also I’m very much in touch with anything that is techy. I like my blogging friends a lot and some become really good buddies who sends me food from home that I otherwise cannot get here. And I also learned of products that I wouldn’t have if not for blogging, like EZBloomers.com custom floral arrangements . I loved sending flowers to friends and family on special occasions and I wished they had this info some 20 yrs ago - when the spouse and I start dating long distance. I would have sent him more gifts and flower arrangements to his mother and aunts on Christmases and Thanksgiving. And because of blogging I think I have more friends than I did when I was in college.
So google had to pay a fine of $500 million for accepting illegal ads promoting sale of medication without prescription on the internet from Canadian pharmacy. Google must have darn deep pockets - but with them canceling accounts of publishers as and when they like - even though they have legitimately made the money - but Google said otherwise - so serve them right! Many bloggers had complained and claimed how google had scammed them - with as much as thousands of dollars owing to them - when Google refused to pay up - just with a violation excuse. So I hope Google feels the pain that these small bloggers feel too.
Big news CEO of Apple Steve Jobs has announced its resignation. Wow!! I really didn’t think he would resign - but I’m guessing his health must have taken a worst turn? since he had been plague with health issues for a long time. Tim Cook will take over Steve’s duties and become the next CEO. The question is will Apple do as well and better without Steve? your guess is as good as mine.
I was looking for a gaming mouse not for myself but for the spouse - only 3 months to Christmas and this year - I am darn sure I want to start as early as possible. A gaming mouse would be a great gift for a gamer like him - so when i saw this gaming mouse from Logitech, I of course, need to read some review about it - to check it out.
You can pre-order this directly from Logitech - it’s called the Logitech G300 mouse - going at $39.99. It has 9 programmable controls and 3 on board profiles- meaning the gamer using it - can do more and faster. The way it is shaped is made for the palm and fingers to maneuver easily. Plus witha 2500 dpi optical sensor - and some durable buttons as we know gamers can sometimes be hard driven master on the buttons. Combined all of the above together and the good pricing - you will definitely find that you can play a lot better.
I saw this on our local yardsale - for $600 and decided that I should take a look at it - since the spouse had always wanted one. All it needed was some new bearings in the rear part - and we are good to go. The spouse also know of some polaris sportsman parts he could get if needed - so we are all set to get the ATV - if the price was right. I was hoping to get it for $400 - since it didn’t have any papers with it. A bit risky I know if it doesn’t have its papers - but I think we know the seller well enough to trust him. So wish us luck - while we go check out the ATV Quad and test it out - and hopefully - we can go even lower than $400. Summer is not ending anytime soon - and I’m sure we can make use of this bad ass - for hurling wood - in the fall an winter - great machine for plowing snow too - if you have the right parts - the uses of this ATV are countless.
While you all know that the spouse acquired a Kindle for Christmas last year - I haven’t really been interested in it - till a friend from Australia posted that she read the above book. I too wanted to see what this book was all about out of curiosity - so I told the spouse to look to see if he could get this book on the Kindle. And yes - they have it on the amazon website I think - or was it Chapters I can’t remember now - so here I am enjoying my reading on the Kindle and so much more faster to get my books now - but I don’t read enough to warrant another Kindle - so for now I’m just going to share it with the spouse and if I continue finding more books online that I’m interested in - I might just go ahead and get another kindle.
Sometime in June this year - Google introduced Google plus - on trial basis - as a gmail user - I was invited by another gmail account holder to try out Google plus - but being on Facebook already took up so much of my time - I asked myself if I needed another social networking app. I didn’t check it out immediately until some friends added me into their circles - so i decided - what the heck - and to take a few minutes and see what is this Google plus all about. Truth be told till today - I’m still not really making use of Google plus - although according to Google they already have like 1 billion users/signed up? But you can use Google plus on your iPhone just like Facebook and video chat too - those in the same circle. And google had been trying hard to convince people that Facebook is a thing of the past and old news. Just like Google they want to own the internet market - from advertising to everything. So some 19 hrs ago - google announced that it has free games for anyone with a Google Plus account. I’m gonna try it out today - and tell you more about it later. Are you on Google plus yet?
If i had an iPad - you can be sure that I would be the first to get a Bamboo stylus made by Wacom. I’m sure you all know that Wacom is one of the leaders when it comes to digital drawing and styluses for electronic gadgets. Some 12 years ago - we ordered one for a co-worker who draws anime - and I was pretty fascinated with it. You can watch the You Tube video - to get a glimpse of what the Bamboo stylus can do - for less than $30 - no wonder it was sold out when I was checking it out.
Looks like a pen and definitely feel like one too.
