A couple of my cousins run a fashion blog at Shopchicks.com and have been promoting some of their posts via Stylehive.com, a Digg-style bookmarking service directed at fashion and trendy items found on the Internet. To make their lives easier, and perhaps for other fashionista bloggers out there, I created a new WordPress plugin that… Continue reading Stylehive It Plugin for WordPress

Ajax Loading Gif Animation
I was sniffing around for some nifty loading gif’s for one of my projects when I found Ajaxload, a drive-thru Ajax-powered site that spits out loading gif animations to your liking on-the-fly. Yeah … for you graphically-challenged Web 2.0 geeks out there, this is the place to go if you want your apps to look… Continue reading Ajax Loading Gif Animation
Mojizu – A Contemporary Character Design Community
Cute. I rarely use that word, but this is what I uttered to myself when I discovered Mojizu, an awesome online community where artists create, share and critique whimsical characters. If you’re an artist who’s into comical art, I think this is a great way to be noticed. Cool downloads include desktop wallpapers, ‘mojicons’ and… Continue reading Mojizu – A Contemporary Character Design Community

It’s called GO: Anywhere You Want. The idea of it is quite simple — You type in your favorite links, organize… Continue reading Yet Another Bookmarking Application
Not so Supr
Don’t get me wrong, I love Suprglu, but so far it’s been giving me a hard time. I added up my XML feed on January 15. That feed had been updated basically everyday, but last time I checked a few minutes ago, Suprslow, ehem, Suprglu hasn’t updated my page even once! I had to delete… Continue reading Not so Supr
Montastic
Montastic is a free site monitoring service based on Ajax and Ruby on Rails, that doesn’t suck, as their tagline goes. What it does is simple — it sends you an email when your site bogs down. Montastic hasn’t emailed me yet, but by just signing up with them I’m sure my sites are in… Continue reading Montastic
Suprglu
Recently I tried a new online news aggregator called Suprglu, a service that allows you to gather all your news sources into one neat blog-looking interface. I signed up and added Alleba Fresh!’s RSS feeds. It’s great because I can see where this service is getting at — allowing webmasters to put all their content… Continue reading Suprglu
