- Day 2 With Google AdSense
My ultimate goal the last year and a half and with Google AdSense and independent consulting is to make enough independent income that I can freely create open source innovations, pursue ideas in the public interest without an employer wanting to control them, and create a more balanced lifestyle than is possible in a traditional computer job. This is why I created things like coworking, btw.

- Screencast: Ross Harmes’s YUI Bundle for Textmate
- [wp-hackers] Inline PHP doc comments – this is fantastic, perhaps I’ll start using Zend for my WP hacking as well (to take advantage of code hinting, etc.).
