Microsoft office is the undisputed king of office apps. Everyone and their dog uses it. It must also be the most pirated program in the world too. I am typing this blog using Open Office. Just because I am a poor guy.
Us poor people have to go with whatever we can get to try and get the same results as those rich guys who can afford $700 computer programs.
It’s a good thing there are programmers out there who realize that some of us folks just aint’ got that kind of capital to throw around… I have often wondered why those guys create these great programs for free….
Just for the fun and practice of it right?
Say now , what can a poor boy do? Except sing for a rock n roll band? -Mick and the boys….
This post is from Sept of 2008. Microsoft office is now a subscription based service and I’m unsure if Open Office even exists as it was. This still several cheap of free alternatives to Microsoft Office.

I got a notice from Google about my Adsense account. You can see the ad’s there on the right..(maybe) I have owned this site for several years.. I don’t blog on it much anymore. My brother uses it a lot – he is a film buff and enjoys reviewing movies .
So anyway Google sends me an email…
One or more of your sites has been in violation of AdSense policies.
Huh? What the heck are they talking about? I go over and look! Here it is! Yes.. My old blog… Violating Google Rules… What is it?
Well….The Email says:
AD MISLABELING: Publishers may not implement Google ads in a manner that disguises the ads in any way.
How am I doin that? OH…. It said ‘KEWL’ above one ad. And ‘Stuff” above another.. It can’t say that. It has to say – Advertisements’ Or ‘sponsored links’ 😉
OK… I’m glad we got that cleared up. I have had this site up since like 2008. Hmmm 8 years. Sorry I didn’t wanna break any rules…Good they got around to telling me.
I took a quick look at my balance while I was fixing the problems.. A grand total of $76.66
I was doing a Google search for “Vote Democrat” on Election Day. I was wondering what would come up. Now that the mid term is over I can go ahead and write a little something about it. So how were the results?
Vote Democrat
I’m sure you can guess how the hipster voted but I wanted to know what kind of information would come up if I did this search on Google. The first site to come up was the official democrat site of course. Gee I would hope so. (more…)
I don’t write about blogging much. What’s the point? There are thousands of blogs out there about “blogging” They teach about SEO, writing tips, making money, social networking, twitter, blog niche’s etc…
I have actually been working a lot on this blog tonight. Tweaking an old post that I discovered was ranking high in Google. This was interesting since the post was only one paragraph long. (more…)
Doing my usual looking around on “how to blog“, blogs I came across a post with over 200 tips to do it better. One of them was to write a post about Google. So I’m gonna bust one out about the mystery of getting indexed.
A Google Search
I just did a search: “Google Index Mystery” and hit I’m feeling lucky (more…)
