Sounds like you learned a valuable skill in your IM career and that is recognizing opportunity. Think of college the same way. Don't go with just the idea of getting a piece of paper, but rather go to learn new skills to make you better at IM. To try and tell anybody that at 17 you know...

I was involved in a business venture where we bought over 4000 domain names and many of these domains had copy righted company names. Stuff like NFL teams to the RedCross. Most of them stayed under the radar,but as soon as the SEO kicked in we would get a letter from their company attorney's...

There was a similar issue tonight in multiple cities for the rental sections followed by a "Maintenance" page and 10 minutes later everything was working normal.

I just recently did this: I started with approx 42k random phone numbers. I wrote a PHP script to hit a free cell phone lookup service(Google it. Wasn't hard to find). The service not only told you if the phone number was cell, but also the carrier. I scraped the carrier info and saved the...

I wrote a scraper to pull top 100 results from google, yahoo, bing and compared backlinks, PR, and keyword density for a dozen broad term and a dozen long tail keyword phrases and noticed a pattern that bing preferred a higher keyword density. I plotted all the data to a bar graph. From the...

You can do it with webbrowser, but just reading the mail from pop3 is much easier. If you are going to use gmail not that they require a ssl connection and there are special modifications to the normal packages for reading pop3. Basically you would parse the pop3 looking for the email with the...

Why not try a Cafepress store. You upload design and drive traffic. They print and send you commission. It used to be free and I think it still is. It is a good way to start to see if the shirts sell enough to justify a real cart and puts money in your pocket to do it right.

I stand corrected. The attorney we had used had told us that as long as we followed the rules to send them good luck proving we harvested the list. I knew about honey pot emails being set out their and thought there only purpose was to flag the ip sending the email on the spam lists. We got spam...

If you are referring to the CAN-SPAM, then it is not illegal as long as you follow the rules. Don?t use false or misleading header information. Your ?From,? ?To,? ?Reply-To,? and routing information ? including the originating domain name and email address ? must be accurate and identify...

If your laptop uses a regular hard drive instead of one of the new solid state drives be careful of compressed air. Going crash with the compressed air can force dust into the mechanical parts of the hard drive and cause read write corruptions and the bearings to go out. That said cleaning the...

I could be wrong, but I get the feeling that you are the type of person that likes to see a finished product to help you get your mind around how the process works. As a web developer I can completely relate. The problem that you will run across is that there is a ton of information. Everybody...

Yes you should be able to post to an ajax location, but if you don't look real close there can be extra parameters being passed. When I get to a point like this I like to fire up Fiddler and watch the POST values doing it manually and then again with the bot and just make sure they are matching...

You basic logic is sound. When the form posts to create an invoice it needs to check if user exists and it needs to create account if it doesn't exist. The the normal flow could continue. You would also need to decide when you create accounts automatically how you want to set default passwords...

I believe the plugin you are talking about uses the api on the content site called scribd dot com. The name is supposed to be misspelled, but is pronouced scribed by most people I have run across. I started using this site a few years ago when it was less than a year old. It was amazing...

I don't personally stutter, but a few years ago watched documentary about stuttering and there was a Dr that was treating people with a pair of headphones that played everything you said back to you, but with a slight delay. Had a HUGE sucess rate. I just checked google and it looks like the...
