Pete & Jay's Tip O Da "Day"

Sometimes we must take this whole free country bit a tad too lightly. Turns out, in countries that don't have this whole freedom-of-speech-thing, you can't complain about the government. Turns out a dude in Iran got thrown in jail for 14 years for insulting the country's leaders. That natural tip from this is: If don't don't live in a country with feedom of speech, don't pretend that you do.

Don't Put all your Eggs in one basket. For example, if you are running a web site that calls for daily updates, it is probably best if your entire crack web team isn't based on one Internet connection. Jay and I lost our DSL connection the other night; luckily we're a couple of smart fellows and had already hired professional editors to bring our tips to the next level. So when the basket dropped, only half of the already-cracked-writing staff were cracked more than usual. The rest of the team, only cracked to their normal extent, were able to pick up the slack and kept you all from being sorely disappointed Tuesday morning. I've heard this also applies owning stocks and socks.

Some blogs, unlike Pete & Jay's Tip O Da Day, don't allow people to post anonymous comments. I can't argue with that, as there is something scary with letting anyone in the world comment on your blog, because this world has some crazy anyones. When you try to sign up for an account with Blogger , it looks like you have to start a blog too, but that is not the case. For those of you who aren't ready to commit to new ways of wasting your time, you can simply stop the sign-up process after the first screen! Yep, fill out the easy first page of info., click on the button for the next step, and then just close the window. Then you're signed up with a Blogger screen-name. Now you'll be able to log in and post comments with your name attached!

When using Blogger to post a tip, one should note that you can allow the post to appear at virtually ANY time! So, if you want your friends to think you're an early morning person, or a night owl, you can set your posts to post whenever! It's truly a work of genius. No one will get it!
