MW2 Clan Website
So you might have noticed that I haven’t written in a few days. I’ve actually been quite busy working on my clan’s website (Nine Eleven Clan). Some of you guys are probably wondering what a clan is. Basically it’s a group of people that you play video games with, which makes me a nerd. I [...]
Should your small business have a blog?
As some of you know I do graphic and web design freelancing (which actually is why I have this blog). One thing I hear from a lot of clients and potential clients is that they’d like to have a blog.

It was an eraser!
Alright, that one was pretty obvious. I’ll try to make it harder next time. It was an eraser. Larry was the most accurate, but Chris was really the first to get it. He’ll go up on the page of winners soon. Thanks for playing, everyone. Stay tuned for the next picture.
Capital Letters
I’m going to tackle an issue that I see as a very common problem. Most people understand that it is important to emphasize things in their text. Most people also understand that ways of doing this include using bold letters, italic letters, capital letters, different colors, and large text.
