Electronic Cigarette Affiliate Program
Tuesday, July 27th, 2010It’s been a few months since I mentioned e-cigs to my readers here. I had stepped back a bit because I was “sure” the FDA was going to kill them before now. With an actual lobbying group running, and the obvious benefits of using electronic cigs – well it’s time to be an affiliate if [...]
More WP Facebook Hacks.
Tuesday, May 11th, 2010Here is another little trick – that might get more folks to log in your site and leave a comment with facebook. Open up your theme editor in WP.

Random RSS Item with PHP and ICONV for formatting.

Aligning Adsense (or other ads) so they float right or left.
