Been mugged, robbed, swindled or do you just feel the need to sketch a face? This handy flash face generator will fill the bill. You can even print a copy to show your friends or the local crime watch. I’m not sure what part of it kept me glued to the page for an hour.. probably that everyone I drew looked like some programmer I knew. Go draw a face and save having to hire that pesky police sketch artist.

I posted a while back about the great work that artist Neil Duerden had on his site. I’m still enthralled with all of the flowing organic shapes, the color and the moods his work creates. Swing by his site and see for yourself.. much goodness to be had. More photos after the jump.

I completely stumbled upon this great gathering of funky art and photography from artist Jeff Koons. I’m not sure what I like about it the most but am definitely a fan of the color, the odd subject matter and the overall vibe I get from his pieces. You should really check them out for yourself… especially if you’re a big monkey fan

I ran across this list of 9 Signs You Shouldn’t Hire THAT Web Guy today over at CSS Zone. I felt like it was worth re-posting over here. Those of us who really ARE web professionals know these folks all too well.
1. He Calls Himself a “Webmaster”
Any web guy that calls himself a “webmaster” probably isn’t a master of anything. The term “webmaster” has become a translation for the word “amateur.” The web has diversified into so many different realms that webmaster is no longer meaningful (was it ever though?)
2. He’s a FrontPage Expert
Any developer / designer with a degree knows that Microsoft FrontPage most definitely isn’t a professional tool. FrontPage will pass for Mom and Dad who want to create a website dedicated to their dogs, not someone who’s trying to do business. I’d argue that a solid Web Developer should work at code level.

With all the media scrutiny the darker side of celebrity life is destined to make it to a computer screen near you. Some of these folks seem to have been caught in just moment of bad judgement, but other seem to actually dwell in those moments.
It’s amazing how removed some of these celebrities seem to be from real life. One case in point.. Mr. Tom Cruise. His latest incoherent rant about scientology has the whole internet buzzing and has spawned a huge amount of chatter and ultimately a slew of parodies. If you haven’t seen the original video, you should watch it here before you continue on…

Sorry folks. The site was down temporarily as one of my posts was featured on the front page of Reddit and my traffic went through the roof. My webhost shut things down temporarily but that’s been resolved. Things should be working normally now. Sorry for any inconvenience.

Do you download a lot of videos and wish you could easily watch them on your TV without burning a DVD? You should try the SanDisk Sansa TakeTV Video Player. At around $150 for the 8GB model, you can get up to 10 hours of video playback time in a compact player and don’t have to pony up for more expensive solutions.
Using the TakeTV is as simple as using a USB flash drive: just drag files to your TakeTV player, slip it into the TV cradle, and press play on the included remote. No confusing WiFi set-ups, no waiting to burn DVDs.
The player supports a variety of the most common video formats and also works with Fanfareâ„¢ BETA, a new web service that gives you access to a growing list of TV shows and movies that you can download and watch on your TV. Currently, Fanfare isn’t supporting the Mac platform, so iTunes is still a good choice for your movie and TV downloads.
I got my TakeTV player yesterday and have already put it through its paces. The build quality is great, the on screen interfaces are well designed and easy to use, and it just works really well right out of the box. I’m definitely a new TakeTV fan.
In recent times anyone can easily start web hosting business. Even a small investor can offer hosting services by purchasing virtual dedicated hosting packages. Along with hosting services people should offer free domain name and web templates to make their business a success. In this regard they need to have good command on business software for which they should obtain basic IT knowledge in the form of 646-171. Additionally 640-801 and 646-392 certification can also prove very handy for such people.
Okay, now I'm totally addicted to Compfight. It's a rockin' new image search tool for Flickr. Thanks Matt for turning me on to yet another cool way to kill a few minutes... or hours... or days.
- #Okay kiddies, turn on the way-back machine and lets go back to 1989 for a look at the original Photo-Shop version 0.87 icon.
- #Everybody gets their 15 minutes of fame I guess... although it may be not rewarding as they think. Here's a few you might remember.
- #I really love the sight of Windows Vista on dual monitors. It's truly something amazing to see...

- #In another shining example of WalMart's quality standards, this one takes the cake (pic). Okay, stupid pun I know but I had to throw it out there.
- #Are we such gullible consumers that we actually respond to this type of hokey advertising? Okay, If you REALLY believe the ex Pace Picante Sauce spokesman cowboy Ford dealer is going to give you a free truck then get your helmet out, carefully place it on your head and try not to hurt yourself when petting the bunnies.
- #I really, really like this chair. Yes, I know it's gaudy and overpriced, but I still want one. Santa please take note.
- #I think these lame truck accessories are for those guys who were born without a pair of their own...
- #What do a mountain gorlilla, Phil Collins and Milk Chocolate have in common? This crazy commercial for one. Beyond that, I just don't want to know.
