  • WordPress Is More Than Automattic and WordPress.com

    WordPress Is More Than Automattic and WordPress.com

    It’s all come to a head. The team at Automattic, the company behind WordPress.com and Tumblr.com has struck a deal with OpenAI and Midjourney to supply data from its .com and Tumblr.com users for AI learning. The reason why the .com is in bold is because we’re talking about the hosted version of WordPress and…

  • Being An Entrepreneur And Business Owner Can Be Frustrating

    Being An Entrepreneur And Business Owner Can Be Frustrating

    I hate admitting it, but being an entrepreneur and business owner is frustrating at times. Cash flow isn’t always consistent. Often, especially in the service industry, you’re at the mercy of other people and companies’ budgets and timelines. The beginning of the year has been slow. I’m not going to lie. The pipeline has been…

  • Spring Is Coming

    Spring Is Coming

    With Spring coming around the corner, I’m getting excited to be able to work outside and get out of my basement office. I do think we’re in store for some more snow before spring official comes, but one can hope that we’re done. I’ve been busy networking like crazy to get Goldstein Media off to…

  • Let Is Snow!

    Let Is Snow!

    Ugh, we’re in the throws of winter here in Doylestown. We had a big snow/ice storm on Monday/Tuesday and more coming on Thursday/Friday. I can complain, but we’ve been lucky that it’s been mild the past few years with the snow and ice. The dog loves the snow, though she’s a bit confused where to…

  • What A First Week

    What A First Week

    The first week of a new year. The excitement, the anticipation, the ups and downs of emotions with things changing. So far this week, I’ve joined the Alignable Alliance to start networking more in my geographic area with businesses. I’ve reached 200 episodes of my Entrepreneur’s Enigma podcast. I’ve moved Marketing Junto onto a WordPress…

  • 2024 Thoughts

    2024 Thoughts

    I think 2024 is going to be the year that people, who want to be active online, are going to finally learn to post their content first on a platform that they fully control. I think the Internet is going to go back to the way it was in the early 2000’s. Or so I…

  • Being Sick Sucks. Especially At Year End

    Who am I kidding. Being sick sucks all the time. The day after we took those photos at Hershey, the kiddo got really sick with Laryngitis and then gave it to me. Thanks buddy. This whole week we’ve been home fighting this damn virus. Trading who has the worst cough. I think his has always…

  • Day At Hershey

    Day At Hershey

    Yesterday we went to Hershey, PA to see Chocolate World and go to the Hershey Lodge. It was a yearly tradition before the pandemic, and now we went back. On the way there we stopped at Sheetz, which is a poor take on Wawa. But I have to admit the ham sandwich I had that…

  • Happy Birthday To The Woman That Is My Everything

    Happy Birthday To The Woman That Is My Everything

    Today is my amazing & kick ass wife’s birthday. Happy Birthday Meredith! Last night we went out, just the two of us to Heirloom in our town (Doylestown). It’s a great little restaurant and our dinner was amazing. Here’s to many more great years!

  • Don’t EVER Buy A Consumer-Grade Dell Laptop

    During the pandemic I needed a laptop. They were hard to find. So even though I knew that Dell’s consumer-grade laptops had issues I ordered one. Man, this was a mistake! Luckily I got a 4 year extended warrenty with it, because I’ve used it. Four bad RAM chips, one bad SSD. It’s been truely…
