RE: Cookies you can feel good about

May 30, 2005

Seth, in response to your post, every store is selling foods that have been repackaged to appear healthier.

Sadly, it’s been happening for years. The most disturbing evidence? Our whole country has been eating "fat free" for the last 30 years, and obesity is about to overtake smoking as the number one most-preventable killer.

FWIW, Herbalife worked for me, and since I’ve lost 126 pounds, I’ve become a lot more in tune with the ways companies are trying to sell me their foods–even if I don’t need it.

Browsing the web used to be safe, then Spam, Spyware, Pop-ups, Adware, Malicious Cookies, and other forms of web hijacking came along.

That’s what STOPZilla is for, a sweet little app that takes care of you while you browse, keeping out the privacy stealers and prying eyes.

In January, Laptop Magazine said the following about StopZilla:

"As pop-ups and adware programs find new ways to hijack your computer, it’s become increasingly difficult to find one tool that does everything… STOPzilla is a one-stop answer to hostile ad software."

I’d like to introduce you…

May 18, 2005

You already know this: In your career search, knowing people, and knowing people they know becomes very important. 

Linked In is a (free) tool I am using to manage my professional and personal relationships.  Linked In makes it easy for me to introduce you to people I know that I think you should know.  Plus, like writing a blog, it helps you become more alive to me, and potential colleagues.

If you’re on this website because of a relationship we have (either through SOS Technical, or some other reason), please contact me and (after you have joined Linked In yourself) ask me to add you to my contact list.  I would love to have you connected to me and, through me, my network of good people.
