Now I don't hold this against Kevin at all. . .I actually applaud it. I mean that's the American Dream, no? Not only is he doing something he loves, but he created it. It ... http://www.four20.net/2008/08/11/kevin-rose-cashes-out/ So I haven't had time to post here much lately with the launch of the App Store and AppStoreApps.com. . .then again I don't have to tell you that. I just wanted to make a note about one of my websites being featured on Gizmodo. Yay for the Beta of Installer! http://www.four20.net/2008/08/04/featured-on-gizmodo/ Oh god why hasn't there been an update to the Firefox plugin Adsense Notifier. I can understand if the developer has quit working on it. . .but then why hasn't someone else picked it up. Or at least forked the project and started something new.

I thought I would get some canned message about how it's against company policy to do so and yada yada. Surprisingly they didn't. ... http://www.four20.net/2008/07/19/pownce-is-fair/ First I created InstallerApps.com. . .then I created SMBThemes.com. Now with the launch of the App Store, AppStoreApps.com is now live.

I will be doing ... http://www.four20.net/2008/07/13/app-store-website/ I thought it was weird when I first joined Pownce my account ended up being banned. I was 'being social'. . .and then all of a sudden my account ended up getting suspended. I contact Pownce support, and Ariel tells me it's because I 'added too many people as a ... http://www.four20.net/2008/07/11/pownce-the-anti-social-network/ Recently I wrote when I quit using Pownce because of instability issues.
