The Ugly Facts About the Internet Sales Tax

 Let me tell you that is bill has nothing to do with fairness and much more to do with a money grab. If you aren't paying taxes to your state for your purchases (for states that have this provision in their tax code), YOU are a tax evader.  Do you honestly think it will be "fair" to require small businesses (or any business) to keep track of some 6900 tax codes throughout the country and submit payments? What do you think this will do to the price of goods?  What do you think this will do to small businesses not able to comply?

Cool websites

As an web geek, I love to see new technology in the works. HTML5 is just that and to most of you it means little but Google/Chrome have been working and playing with this new language bringing you some awesome examples.  So even if the technology doesn't mean much, we can still enjoy the fruits of their labor.

Take a few minutes and play around on these cool websites.

Why Update Your Browser?

I know.. it is time consuming and one more thing to do. Please note: it really could be beneficial to make sure your browser is updated. 

Browser updates have security improvements and if you don't update you don't benefit from the changes putting your computer at risk for viruses or spoofs.

Older browsers are more likely to crash as it may not have the latest technology to view  websites with the newest web coding, making it difficult to read or even worse, unable to view. Improved audio and video support is improved in newer versions as well.

Updating your browser could make it faster!  They are perfecting many of the tools for the internet.

So how do you know if your browser is up to date? Go to HELP on your browser and at the bottom is usually an "about" link which will tell you the version you are currently using. Some browsers will automatically update, but others don't so it is worth checking.

Website Navigation

Have you ever "gotten lost" on a website, maybe finding that their isn't any navigation, the navigation doesn't work properly or you have traveled so deep can't find your way back to the home page? Now there is the hassle of hitting the back button or re-typing the url address, but there is a shortcut. *light bulb* Most web-designers will make the logo or header as a clickable link to the home page where you can start your navigation once again.

I have added an arrow to identify the "logo"  on this
website that can be used as the home navigation button.
