Last.fm is the Shizzy

Thursday, October 18th, 2007

I like when I find things online that actually work. Most things are usually someone’s blatant attempt to monetize on someone coming to their site or using their service…which is fine by me. But, it just makes me take notice when I find something that I actually go back and use on my own because […]

Server Beach Coupon Code -> Save $100 on a Dedicated Server

Friday, September 21st, 2007

For the impatient types that are looking for their $100 off coupon code for Server Beach, the code is NWX3DCU3BW and my name is Jason Golod (if you need it). If you stay signed up with ServerBeach’s rock solid dedicated hosting for 90 days, you get a $100 credit. Pretty sweet deal considering their level […]

Unlock Your iPhone

Thursday, September 13th, 2007

Most of the geeks have seen the YouTube video of the kid that unlocked his iPhone. He, however, did not give out the nitty gritty details on how to unlock your Apple iPhone…all of that has changed now. Apparently Collin Mulliner unlocked a phone today and it works on T-Mobile now. I don’t own an […]

Krups XP4050 Review - Final

Saturday, August 25th, 2007

For those of you who get excited about having your morning coffee, stay tuned to hear my final thoughts on the Krups XP4050 espresso machine. I have made a few posts in the past about my trials and tribulations with the XP4050. My first impression with the machine was that it was cheap…and, […]

Capresso 560 Burr Grinder - WOOOT

Thursday, June 14th, 2007

Wow, I know I am a loser and all for becoming a coffee fiend, but I was pretty lost up until last night. You see, I was using ESE (Espresso coffee pods) in our Krups XP4050 espresso machine. For a while I thought that the machine was really at fault for making espresso that definitely […]

Best Airplane Power Adapters

Friday, June 1st, 2007

I get a lot of questions from friends and family members seeing how I am the resident tech guru. One item that I was an early adopter of was the airplane power adapter. I bought a really nice one (read cost over $150) that I had to buy an adapter cord for to work with […]

Wait, That is a Miata?

Friday, May 25th, 2007

Ok, so I was really happy to hear that Stacey David was back on television after leaving one of my all time favorite shows, Trucks! If there was ever a real life McGuyver, Stacey David is him. This guy can fabricate anything and have a good time doing it. Danielle used to sigh […]

Where to Stay in Boston

Wednesday, May 23rd, 2007

I never had the chance to hang out in Boston before. Maybe it was the Yankee fan in me, but I never seemed to make it out there to one of America’s greatest cities. Boston is one of those places that you visit and think to yourself, “I could live here.” All baseball […]

Prius Drivers Are Nuts

Monday, April 9th, 2007

If you own a Prius then please take yourself to the nearest DMV and have them retest your driving skills. And, if they pass you, please ask them to test you again. I have spoken to numerous people, including my wife, and they have all said the same thing, Prius drivers are the worst they […]

Tivo Series 2 - Lifetime Subscription

Tuesday, March 27th, 2007

It is a sad day here in the Golod household. I put my faithful Tivo Series 2 DVR with lifetime subscription up for sale on eBay. I have not used the Tivo in many moons, mostly because I became a big backer of Microsoft’s Media Center Edition platform and more recently of the Comcast […]

Two Things to do Before You Die

Friday, March 23rd, 2007

Yesterday was a pretty good day for me. My brother-in-law hooked me up with a ticket for the NCAA regional games down in San Jose yesterday…great. Then I met up with the wife and her friends to go see Soulive. Every time I see Soulive it is a life changing experience. You […]

NEO for Outlook

Monday, March 12th, 2007

If you are like me and you have about 10 years of emails archived in your Outlook folders, then you are going to want to check out an Outlook add-on called NEO. I was taking the longest route possible back from New Orleans yesterday and was fortunate enough to sit next to a fellow […]

My Reason Why AOL Coulda Been a Contenda

Friday, January 12th, 2007

All of us geeks have had to deal with AOL at one time or another in our lifetimes on line. Either we installed AOL back in the day to make sure one or more of our sites were compatible with the AOL browser or we have had to deal with users and clients who could […]

Le Creuset Dutch Oven…Hells Yes

Thursday, January 11th, 2007

Some of you know that this guy likes to chef it up. I grew up in the kitchen with my mother, probably because my fat ass was looking for some scraps, namely “beef tartare” (when moms was making meatballs, meatloaf, etc). This truly turned out to be a blessing because it meant that […]

LaserJet 4000 Paper Trays and Accessories

Wednesday, November 22nd, 2006

I just had one of those moments where you think eBay could be the coolest thing ever to happen to this world. What I purchased is not necessarlity earth shattering, but the whole experience was so good that I want to recommend someone to call if you are looking for used LaserJet 4000 printers, […]

Psst. AOL is Free. Free I Say

Tuesday, November 14th, 2006

Ok, here is a little tip for all of you people out there who are either 1) paying for AOL STILL 2) trying to mask who you are by using TOR/Privoxy or at least some kind of web proxy. I have run into a little bit of a snaggle lately spamming my favorite website. […]

Envelopes on the Cheap

Wednesday, October 25th, 2006

Getting back into the guerrilla marketing game in the offline world has been pretty fun. I really do like the mix of online / offline marketing. I guess that is simply because I have learned so much in the past few years of focusing back on the online marketing game. But, now it is time […]

Who Likes String Bikinis?

Saturday, September 23rd, 2006

I guess the question is, who doesn’t like string bikinis? No matter, a friend of mine in Malibu needs a little help with her website. I am sure you won’t mind linking to her site or even visiting it for that matter. She runs the best bikini shop in Malibu (update: she no longer has […]

Monday, August 21st, 2006

In an effort to try and keep this blog focused on the world of online marketing, SEO/SEM, blogging etc. I have decided to post my geekery items, like my new Parrot 3400 LS-GPS Bluetooth car kit review to my new tech blog at tech.golod.com. Pretty exciting huh? Yeah, I know I am a psycho.

TTFN Commission Junction

Thursday, August 17th, 2006

I have not really felt that Commission Junction, aka CJ, was very good. I think that they were the first to really understand that affiliate marketing was something that any brand and business could buy into. However, at some point, they threw in the towel. I remember when I first really got into affiliate marketing […]
