Get Out!

So, could this day get any better? As if I wasn’t giddy enough already, I just got my notification that Pixelog is a finalist in the SXSW Interactive awards in the Weblog category! I’m so excited I can barely type!

Rules of the Road…

As I’ve been driving a little bit more lately, can we please get some basic “rules of the road” down? I think we can all agree on this, but you tell me what you think.
:: Turn Signals: Next time you slide in behind the steering wheel, please note the stick on the [...]

I Have Faith!

Awwww… Faith loves me. I won her nice shiny button for “Best Blog by Someone Named Christine” Considering all the Christines out there, it’s quite an honor! Thanks Faith! *mwah!*

Who is Watching You?

Plagued by annoying pop-up ads that just seem to come out of nowhere? Wonder if websites are tracking you long after you’re gone from theirs? Ad-Aware is a fantastic tool for checking on this, and they have just announced the release of Lavasoft’s Ad-Aware 6.0. I can’t recommend this software enough – [...]

Subtle Differences…

I find the subtle differences between the people I am working with at my temp job and the people I worked with for a year and a half at the web company amusing. Maybe it’s because the male to female ratio is different, but it’s the little things that get my attention. I [...]

H-Town Blogs…

Just got off the phone with Elaine as we made some tweaks to the all new H-Town Blogs site! It looks so great – I’m so excited that it’s ready to be rolled out! There are still some little things here and there that need to be fixed – the archive pages and [...]

Spork!

Sure, I enjoy the great DaVinci’s Notebook classics like “The Irish Drinking Song” (We’ll throw up, pass out, wake up and go drinking once again…) and “Internet Porn”, but I was thrilled beyond belief to discover they actually have a song about your favorite eating utensil and mine … the SPORK! Ah, good things. [...]

Love Bridget Jones’ Diary? Love Lord of the Rings? Well now you can have the best of both worlds thanks to The Very Secret Diaries by Cassandra Claire. Thank goodness they put that warning on the page – they saved my monitor from some serious spray! Read them in the order [...]

It’s All About Perspective…

Think your job sucks? I’m watching window-washers on the building across from me. It’s cold, icky & rainy outside, and there is a definite nip to the air – but there they are on the scaffold, washing windows 40 floors up. So really, does your job suck as bad as you thought [...]

The Revenge…

Blogwhore 2: The Revenge of the Blogwhore … let the games begin!
What is Blogwhore, you ask? Well, it’s this crazy little web game. Think of it as an online Survivor where you must shamelessly beg to win challenges, allowing you to progress in the game. Ah, who am I kidding? The [...]

I decided it was time to color my hair again. Thanks to L’Or�al, I could pick out the shade I wanted to use, make sure I was getting the right line of products and so much more. A quick trip to the store and I now have L’Oreal Preference 6A on my head, [...]

I snapped this [...]

Would you like to see famous A-List bloggers naked? They have found them for you! [via Kristin]

Mmmm… Pickles!

Robyn talked the other day about fried pickles and the latest offering at Sonic, the “Pickle-Os”. I’ve tried them, and they are ok – but I tell you whaaaat (said with a Texas twang) – the BEST fried pickles are at Black-Eyed Pea. Yes, they have added them to their appetizer menu and [...]
