Cyber Crime as a Market
Thu, 05/10/2012 - 8:00pm
by Stephen Cobb
Say "cyber crime market" to the average MBA in America and they probably think you mean the market for security solutions to prevent cyber crime. In Russia the term "cyber crime market" apparently means the amount of money to be made from cyber crime. In 2011, that amount was $12.5 billion according a report recently published by Moscow-based Group-IB. Their analysts concluded that about one third of that total was "earned" by Russian-speaking hackers, and about half of that was earned by hackers inside Russia.

Good Evening! I see we have a start, I am late because I was sleeping a little, too cold for me here. I know I shouldn't say that, it's colder where a lot of you are.
I have viewed a million videos I can't post something questionable in each one! I'll find something, meantime, don't wait for me, keep going! YOU are doing a great job!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

25. Experimental Shooter
This appropriately named time-sink has a basic enough premise – use your mouse to control a swivelling gun turret and shoot a number of floating balls to clear a level – but goes about each stage in a totally different way, meaning you'll have to use your wits just as much as your trigger finger. Examples? Well, one level is essentially a big pool table, while another only has your shots count once they've rebounded off the arena's walls.
Note: a mouse is a must for this one, as trackpads won't give you the degree of control you need.
24. Mini Metro
Fancy a spot of urban planning in your lunch break? Mini Metro (currently in a free, pre-release alpha build, but coming as a paid game later this year) is just the ticket: it's a game where you have to cater for the whims of New York's commuters by constructing a subway system connecting various stations.
As the days roll by, more stations appear, stretching your network and causing the overcrowding that can lead to Game Over conditions – but once a week you're given a choice of "power ups" that enable you to add more lines, or upgrade existing ones with more carriages, speedier trains, longer platforms and tunnels.
More after the break...
23. Abobo's Big Adventure
A glowing, nostalgia-fuelled tribute to the Nintendo Entertainment System, Abobo's Big Adventure stars one of the forgotten faces of the 8-bit era (the eponymous Abobo, the muscle-bound "sub-boss" from Double Dragon) as he sets out to rescue his son.
But the plot, such as it is, doesn't matter: what matters is the way the game pays homage to many of your favourite NES games, with characters from games including Donkey Kong, Spy Vs Spy and Super Mario Bros all making appearances – and that's just in the first stage. The gameplay varies between beat 'em up and platform styles, and it's unashamedly, unreformed old school in its approach.
22: FPS Man
Atmospheric Horror. Two words you wouldn't normally associate with PAC-MAN. But one round of this 3D first-person remake of the classic arcade title could leave a puddle of shame beneath your chair. Don't believe me? Plug in your headphones and see if you're braver than I am.
21: Cube Slam
You liked Pong? Cube Slam is Pong on meth. It's a beautifully 3D rendered version of the classic (which you'll see more of below) with power-ups and satisfyingly meaty sound effects. You can play against real people online, and because the e-game supports webcams you can even see those annoying people that keep beating you.
Or if you prefer to embrace artificially intelligent nature, go up against Bob the Bear. He's an AI bot who's always there for you when your friends aren't. Try it now, but be prepared to lose at least half an hour.

Of Mice and Men
By John Steinbeck
January 21 – February 20
American writer John Steinbeck won the Pulitzer Prize, the National Book Award, and the Nobel Prize for combining "sympathetic humor and keen social perception." Longtime friends Lennie and George cling to each other as they're driven from job to job by simple-minded Lennie's inability to fit society's norms. George needs Lennie's friendship as much as Lennie needs George to look out for him—"a guy goes nuts if he ain't got nobody." But just as their humble dreams seem to float within reach, "the best laid schemes o'mice an' men" begin to go hopelessly awry. Rated PG-13 for subject matter. Some material may be unsuitable for preteens.
The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee
Music & Lyrics by William Finn
Book by Rachel Sheinkin
March 18 – April 24
"Doing for geeks what A Chorus Line did for hoofers" (The Washington Post), this witty, Tony Award-winning musical follows six bright young misfits struggling to simultaneously fit in and stand out in our competitive, elimination-tournament culture. Like the awkward overachiever in each of us, they ultimately learn that winning isn't everything, losing doesn't make you a loser, and it's all about the journey. Rated PG-13 for language and subject matter. Some material may be unsuitable for preteens.
Moonlight and Magnolias
A comedy by Ron Hutchinson
June 3 – July 3
It's 1939 and producer David O. Selznick's new film Gone With The Wind is in trouble. The new director and screenwriter are convinced the movie will flop, but Selznick, undeterred, sequesters himself in the office with them to rewrite the script, emerging days later having wrested order from chaos. Their raucous arguments about artistic compromises, commercialism, the politics of race, and even the closing line of the movie are agitated, funny, but always impassioned—vividly showing that the backstage drama of creating enduring art can be as engaging as the art itself. Rated PG-13 for language and subject matter. Some material may be unsuitable for preteens.
Greater Tuna
A play by Jaston Williams, Joe Sears and Ed Howard
July 29 – August 28
Welcome to a day in the life of "the third smallest town in Texas", where the Lions Club is viewed as suspiciously liberal and Roots is pulled from the library because "it only shows one side of the slavery issue". Yet despite Tuna's quirky small-town politics, we see much of ourselves in its inhabitants, with their all-too-human struggles, triumphs and foibles. Greater Tuna was performed at the White House for President George H.W. Bush (Sr.) and earned the SF Bay Area Critics Award and LA Dramalogue Award for playwright Jaston Williams. Rated PG-13 for sharp satire. Some material may be unsuitable for preteens.
The Rocky Horror Show
Book, Music and Lyrics by Richard O'Brien
September 23 – October 30
You've sung along to midnight showings of the cult-classic movie… but it can't compare to the energy of 140 live audience members doing the Time Warp! Experience the rollicking, slightly raunchy comedy/horror/rock opera that inspired the longest-running theatrical release in history. Celebrate the Halloween season with Dr. Frank N. Furter (the "sweet transvestite from Transsexual, Transylvania"), Dammit Janet, and the rest, in the ultimate audience-participation musical! Some suggestive content; recommended for ages 15 & up.

Film Review: Goldfinger (1964)
SYNOPSIS: "The powerful tycoon Auric Goldfinger has initiated Operation Grand Slam, a cataclysmic scheme to raid Fort Knox and obliterate the world economy. James Bond, armed with his specially equipped Aston Martin (its accessory package includes built-in machine guns, a smoke screen and an ejector seat), must stop the plan by overcoming several outrageous adversaries. First there's Oddjob, the mute servant who kills at the toss of a lethal hat; next, the beautiful Jill Masterson, … Continue reading
A Brief History Of Bond, James Bond (1962-1985)
He may not have been a great producer – the case is arguable – but he certainly was a smart operator. In partnership with Harry Saltzman for fifteen years, Albert R. 'Cubby' Broccoli (1909-1996) revolutionised genre cinema by showing the major studios that it could actually be profitable. He thus opened the door to the multi-million-dollar financing of fantastic films, without which the genre could not have reached the dizzying heights (and abysmal depths) of … Continue reading

The real estate stats look good for Ventana Ranch in October 2012.
Ventana Ranch Real Estate Stats
- Total home sales were up somewhat
- The average home sales price increased slightly
- Average price per square foot stat decreased somewhat
- The average time homes were on the market was down significantly
Real Estate Stats: Total Home Sales
- There were 26 home sales in Ventana Ranch during October. That's up from last year by about 10%.
Average Sales Price
- The average sales price was $172,612, up from $169,670 last October, but well off the peak in 2008.
Average Price Per Square Foot
- The average price per square foot was back down to $89, down considerably from last year
Average Market Time
- Homes were selling faster this October than they were last year. The average market time was 66 days which is well off the peak of 85 days that we saw in 2008.
I keep waiting for that breakthrough month when it becomes apparent that the market has started to improve drastically. Instead, what I keep getting is glimpses of an improved market that comes and goes from month to month.
I think it will be awhile until we see the real estate stats improve substantially. I believe we will continue to see OK but less than spectacular numbers until the short sales and foreclosures are gone and the economy improves.
Thanks for reading my Ventana Ranch real estate stats for September 2012. Please check back in about a week to see what's happening with short sales and foreclosure homes in Ventana.
To read Albuquerque Market Stats for other neighborhoods, please click here.

These statistics were compiled from the Greater Albuquerque Association of REALTORS®data on 11/15/2012. This data is reflective of homes which were listed on the Albuquerque MLS; private sales are not included.

I know one person who got a job through e-mail. She e-mailed the director and spoke with him about a position, went through the interview process and was hired.
So, keep in mind that good counselors are also looking for you, and the Internet is becoming one of the best places for them to find your camp.
It would be a good idea to have a section on your Web site for potential staff to outline the job requirements, philosophy of the camp and the hiring process. The more information a prospective counselor has, the more likely they are to follow up.

State closing NEON halfway house for women
HARTFORD — State officials on Friday shut down a halfway house for women that Norwalk Economic Opportunities NOW Inc. operated in Waterbury for the Department of Correction.
The department is canceling the contract because NEON is not satisfying its terms and this inability threatens public safety, said James Dzurenda, the interim commissioner of correction.

HPU women look for answers on defense
There is one thing for certain that High Point University women's basketball coach DeUnna Hendrix will be looking for her team to do much better when it opens Big South Conference play tonight against Longwood at the Millis Center.
That would be play better defense, particularly transition defense, following the inability to slow down the opposition in the second half of two straight losses which have dropped HPU to 4-3.
In the first setback, UNCG torched the Panthers for 65 percent second-half shooting in pulling out a 81-79 victory on Sunday. That was followed by Furman shooting 55 percent, zipping to the bucket on fast breaks and canning 3s, in coming from nine down in the second half and rolling to a 76-67 victory.
The lack of defense more than offset HPU pulling down 24 offensive rebounds on the way to a 48-36 advantage on the boards against the Paladins.
"We finally outrebounded somebody by a significant margin," Hendrix said. "But the thing is, you can't just rebound. You've got to get back and defend. You can't let somebody shoot 55 percent in the second half and 49 percent overall. That means we are not playing defense."
The lack of stops came after the Panthers worked on defense following the UNCG loss.
Four players scorched HPU. Erica Norwood went 8 of 12 on the way to 22 points before suffering a leg injury in the final minute. Holli Wilkins was 5 for 9, Brittany Hodges was 5 for 8 and Sarah Durdaller was 4 for 8.
"It looked like it was shooting practice for them," Hendrix said. "We didn't communicate. Our transition defense was not very good for the second straight game, and that's all we worked on for a week. But the good thing is we have a conference game on Friday as an opportunity to right the ship."
The hot shooting helped Furman go from a seven-point deficit with 10:30 left to an 11-point lead with just over 30 seconds to play.
"Our transition defense, all you have to do is communicate with each other," Hendrix said. "We're getting to the ball late, and people are doing what they want to do, and we're not dictating at any point. At some point, you've got to turn the tide and we haven't the past two games."
And while Furman was hot, the Panthers shot just 34 percent in the second half, thanks in part to getting three and four shots per possession at times without scoring.
"I think we kept anticipating contact when there wasn't any," Hendrix said. "We did a great job on the offensive boards but we couldn't put anything back. I don't know what it was."

Over the past few months there have been a string of sexual assults in Park Slope, Windsor Terrace, Greenwood Heights and Sunset Park. I have been in contact with both Assistant Chief Chan of the NYPD's Brooklyn South Division and Deputy Inspector Pintos of the 72nd Precinct. I am also working with the Dept of Transportation to see if they can install additional lights beneath the Prospect Expressway overpass in the interest of public safety. Several of the attacks began with the victim being followed after leaving a subway station, especially the Prospect Ave station at 4th Ave on the R train.
The Brooklyn District Attorney's office has begun a public safety program called "Safe Stop" (formerly Safe Haven), which allows merchants to display a decal to alert the public that their business is a safe place to go in the event of an emergency. Business employees will receive training about the program; have public safety information to give out and will refer non emergency situations to the DA's office. Emergencies will be handled through 911. My office will soon be a safe stop. Applications for businesses which would like to become Safe Stops are available in my office at 341 Smith Street.
It is extremely important that we all take safety precautions when walking alone day or night. The Police Department recommends being extra cautious and aware of your surroundings, taking off headphones as they may inhibit the ability to hear someone approaching and using a route that is well lit and well populated. Do not hesitate to call the 72nd Precinct at 718-965-6311, 78th Precinct at (718) 636-6411 or 911 if you suspect a crime is being committed.
Additionally, the following resources provide late night walks or rides home:
- Brooklyn Bike Patrol provides walks home 7 days a week from subway stops in Park Slope, Prospect Heights and Carroll Gardens. Call 718-744-7592 to arrange an escort.
- Right Rides provides free, safe rides home for women and LGBTQ individuals after midnight on the weekends. Call 888-215-SAFE
- Safe Slope provides free walks home in Park Slope, Greenwood Heights and Windsor Terrace on Thursday, Friday and Saturday nights from 8pm-3am by calling 347-709-8852
I will be chairing a roundtable on the topic of elder abuse on Tuesday, October 25, 2001 at Borough Hall at 9:30am. Discussions will focus on the growing problem of elder abuse and ways in which state and local governments can partner to end elder abuse throughout New York State. Free admission.
Represented/Update on 370 Jay Street
Two recent developments at the MTA are addressing issues I've been speaking about for years: Recently Governor Cuomo signed one of my bills (A7898) into law. As a state agency, the MTA board of directors is nominated by the Governor of New York and recommended by the Mayor of New York City and the county executives of the seven counties served by the MTA. But who represents the interests of commuters and labor? Since 1994 the 17 member MTA board of directors has been made up of two non-voting members, one representing the interest of commuters and the other representing the interest of labor. My sponsorship of this bill will extend this provision until 2016 and ensure that the voice of commuters and the labor community continues to be represented during tough budget negotiations.
In addition, the MTA has finally issued an RFP for the use of 370 Jay Street - a building which has been empty for years and has fallen into disrepair. Either selling or leasing the building could bring millions of dollars to the MTA, which I want to see go to improving services for riders. I am also hopeful that the building will finally become an economic boon to Downtown Brooklyn, rather than the derelict eyesore that it has been for years, possibly by providing office space to dozens of small businesses in a prime location.
In an era of budget cuts, there is a bright spot at the Brooklyn Public Library. The BPL has been able to expand service hours at many branches in the borough. More hours mean more services and activities for residents. The Pacific Branch offers assistance with resume writing on Tuesdays at 2 PM, the Brooklyn Heights branch is doing the same on Tuesday evenings from 6 PM- 7:30 PM, for more information call 718-623-7000. And the Carroll Gardens branch is offering a free presentation for parents on middle and high school applications by Insideschools on Tuesday, October 11 from 6 PM - 8 PM.
The new University Hospital of Brooklyn at Long Island College Hospital (LICH) will be offering free flu shots at my office on Tuesday Oct. 18 and Wednesday Oct. 19th - please call for an appointment at 718-246-4889.

Well, I guess you all can say I'm uber-happy we're back. Disregard the whole uber-happy thing, I saw it on Clueless but maybe it just doesn't work for me. But, back to THE RETURN OF PAPARAZZI. It's great, other than the fact that me and Kelly are going to fight over the computer again. Just kidding, I don't fight with her, she is my boo ;) Speaking of Kelly, living with her is going pretty great. We've been on this huge abnormal West Side Story kick the past couple of days, we'll watch it over and over. Usually, we end up singing the songs so much that Justin comes in and either tells us to stop, or just laughs at us hysterically. Whatever, he knows he likes it. Hi Justin I haven't gotten amnesia or anything, I still love you tons. :-* I came back on Boston Public on Monday, which was very cool. I brought the afro puff back, too! Oh how I missed it so. My fansites are being so slow, seriously, I'm beginning to think the people behind these sites are way busier than me. Here I am, all anxious, angry and maybe a little homicidal like "HELLO CAN I GET A SCREENCAP >:O" when these people are probably out having lives. Now I feel all bad. This is awful, let me get back to Perky!Tamyra.Alright to recap, Kelly is great, Justin is great, Boston Public is great, even the fansites are great. Now this community is going to be great again, sup :-D
I will not let you all die. I am updating so no one can yell at me :-DSo, my baby Kelly was great on Tuesday but really, when is she not great. She blew all the AI2 kids out of the water, so much for Simon's these-kids-are-so-much-better-than-last-year theory. I went with her because you know, I gotta go hit on Clay and Trenyce. I had a glittery marker neon posterboard sign that said "TRENYCE AND CLAY, ALL THE WAY" so if you saw that sign, you saw me on TV. ;) After the show I tried to get to Clay and Trenyce but Corey started trying to sex me up. Kelly saved the day, she was like "BACK AWAY SHE IS MINE" she's hilarious when she's angry. Hi Kelly :-*Justin took me to see Willard and it really wasn't all that scary. He had to shut me up in the theater because I started singing Ben at the top of my lungs. :-/ What I'm sorry, Michael Jackson was awesome when he was black okay
I've been in New York the past few days and I'm still trying to get over the fact that it is REALLY REALLY FREAKING COLD. That was very articulate I know. ;) Yesterday I was on The View basically talking about Boston Public and recording my album. And well I don't think I have ever had to fake-smile that much in my entire life. Most of it was because I was terrified Star Jones would cook me like a turkey and eat me if I didn't look like I was having loads of fun. The hosts kept going off the subject and asking me weird questions, because you know they are fascinated with my personal life. I'm pretty surprised they didn't ask me if I'd given into drugs yet. Which I haven't >:o I guested on The Caroline Rhea Show, it just aired, and it's your basic awful talk show crap. Why didn't I go on Dr Phil?So Justin wants to take me to see Willard with him, I'm super scared though. That doesn't make me a wuss either :-[ he says it isn't scary or anything, but hey anything with flesh eating rats being controlled by an evil scary looking guy so he can get back at his enemies is pretty creepy to me. It's okay, I will be buried into Justin's shoulder the whole time and he'll protect me. I love him :-D
So, Carmen made it. This is horrible, I will have to change the channel while she's "singing" (because the definition of singing to her is cruel and unusual punishment.) She's only performed once and I swear my ears have not bled this much since Nikki McKibbin. Wait I mean what, I am Tamyra I love everyone. O:)Living with Kelly is really great, she's my best friend and it's super. No, we do not have pillow fights in our underwear you perverts. But seriously, I missed having her around and I'm so happy she is done filming the movie, I get to see her a lot more. And seeing Justin, well that's a huge plus. He's going to come and see me soon. I'm nervous and excited and scared all at the same time. That probably makes no sense at all, but oh well. :-[
I am still here, I have just been busy calling Simon Randy and Paula excessively to see what the twist is for wildcard. They won't tell me. The surprise better be that Frenchie is coming back, she is the best one. So anyway Guarini told me he likes me and I told him I have a crush on him too, then he signed off so he left me do not let him talk you into anything else. Boys are trouble. ;)Wow um I'm really late on this but I hope all of you saw Boston Public with me on it. I was only on for like 5 minutes. Maybe there's a reason for that because let's just say I'm not winning any Emmys anytime soon. I'm not the best actress but hey this is not a Jessica Simpson on That 70s Show situation. I think I'm on Boston Public for like 4 more weeks and in upcoming episodes you get to see my semi-abusive boyfriend threaten me and have his fist 2 inches from my face. Great stuff.
Josh Gracin and Corey Clark better make top 10. If one of the girls makes it, I will get hostile. Hi kids, do you like violence? Frenchie was supposed to be in group 4. :-/
I'm going to be on Boston Public tonight. Watch or die bastards. >:oNo, you guys know I'm just joking. I'm extremely nervous for the show. I don't want people to think I'm a bad actress but really nothing is worse than Timberlake in Model Behavior. Oh and don't count out Longshot. ;)But anyway the Grammys were great blah blah blah. Frenchie Davis was there and I know this because I stalk her. Don't worry this is not one of those Britney-and-creepy-Asian-guy cases. Okay Norah Jones won everything. She's great but really SHE WAS UP AGAINST FREAKIN' BRUCE SPRINGSTEEN AND SHE WON. I hate the Grammy voting committee. Avril should have won something and John should have won more. Speaking of John I think he is like my favorite. He's amazing, and he really shined yesterday - he just stood up there and sang, no backup band, backup singers or dancers, just talent. I have been listening to his CD all day, all of you buy it because it's the best thing ever.
Right now, I'm at Kelly's house! Woohoo! I'm moving everything in right now. Or, you know, sitting here typing while I make Kelly do all the work. No but seriously, I'm really excited to move in with her. I'm kind of nervous because I don't have much experience with a housemate or a roommate. The American Idol house doesn't count because we literally had no spare time. We were never in the house, it was either interviews, rehearsal, or the show. And we didn't get to see each other in the house because it was so damn big. But anyways, moving in with Kel is going to be a lot of fun, I was getting really sick of not being able to see her that often before. She's my best friend, what do you really expect.Now excuse me I am going to prank call Justin and pretend to be Edgar. You can ruuuuuuuuuuuuun.
So, I have been watching American Idol 2. Why have Ryan, Randy, Simon, and Paula been saying this year's talent is better than last year's? It is a suckfest. I miss Kelly and Justin. Speaking of them, they were the best yesterday on the results show. I still think it should be From Tamyra To Kelly, but hey the people want the fro, and that is what they get. ;) No I am just kidding Justin, you know I love you. You will be hearing from me a lot more because I am moving in with Kelly and we will prank call you every day. Hi Kelly :-*You will all watch me on Boston Public or be forced to live your life eating through a tube. Take your pick. Mmm yes I am hostile.

Free eBook: The WordPress Blogging Guide
It's been nearly four years since I discovered WPHacks – or Hack WordPress as it was called back then – and it was here Kyle was kind enough to offer me the chance to have my very first blog post published. At the time I was using WordPress to power a small video games review site I ran with some friends, but when I found Hack WordPress and by extension the whole WordPress community, I was immediately hooked. This was where I wanted to be.
After a couple of posts here I decided to create my own "WordPress tutorials" site, which I called WPShout. Since founding the site in March 2009, I've nurtured the site into a 3000 strong community for WordPress enthusiasts. And in that time, whilst building that community, I've learned a thing or two about blogging. I've been on a journey, if you will, and that journey started right here.
So I thought it'd be fitting to come back here once more just to let you know that I've recently published a 45 page free eBook on WPShout and you should totally download it right now.
Those forty five pages of The WordPress Blogging Guide contain six thousand words of content, which are broken down into three sections:
- Blogging essentials
- Monetization
- Social & Analytics
The book's release post tells you more, should you wish for a more detailed synopsis.
That's all from me. I just want to thank Kyle again for starting me off on my blogging journey and graciously allowing me to return to publish this short piece. And of course don't forget to download the eBook. It's free!
WordPress for Internet Marketers eBook Review
For a couple of years now I've been a very active affiliate marketer, but when it comes to the subject of affiliate marketing, I always feel there is more I can learn. Techniques change, new products are released, and the internet goes through a number of trends. As a result, when I learned about a new WordPress eBook called WordPress for Internet Marketers, I felt I had to get my hands on a copy and see what new things I could learn.
Upon downloading the ebook, I was surprised to see that this book is an amazing 950 pages! In fact, the author did readers a favor and broke it down into a few PDF files for more convenient reading. If that sounds like a lot of pages, that is because there are a number of screen shots included by the author which inflates the page count a bit, but helps readers to learn and follow along with what the author is saying.
One thing I really liked about this ebook is that the author really goes out of her way to provide options to readers. Most sections take the time to explain a variety of options to the reader and allows them to figure out what plugin, theme, etc. works for them. Here are some of the sections within the book that I really enjoyed:
- Creating Membership Sites with WordPress
- Integrating Podcasts into your WordPress Blog
- Creating a Sales Page with WordPress (this is a big part of what affiliate marketers do!)
- Adding a Help Desk to a WordPress Blog
- Building a Jobs Board with WordPress
Some of the sections which could use a little improvement in my opinion:
- More Bookmarks – This ebook comes with some bookmarks, but not as many as I would have liked to see due to the huge size of the ebook. This of course is not a knock on the book itself, but rather with how the information is presented.
- Search Engine Optimization (SEO) – This section has a lot of good but basic SEO information which is geared specifically towards WordPress users. This is great for someone learning WordPress, but I would have liked to see some more advanced techniques included as well for WordPress veterans.
- Improved Forums Section – I've always felt forums are an important part of any successful WordPress blog. After reading the forums section, I felt like a few more pages could have been dedicated to this section. It covers WordPress plugins which create forums, but doesn't appear to cover things like vBulletin or PHPBB, which are probably the most commonly used forum software for WordPress blogs.
Overall, I have to say that I am pretty happy with the WordPress for Internet Marketers eBook. If you are interested, all 950+ pages are available for only $77.00. This price includes a document filled with WordPress resources, free updates to the ebook as future versions of WordPress become available, and 100 WordPress themes which can be used to put some of the tips provided in the ebook into practice.
WPMU Tutorials Releases a Installation eBook
Because I am not personally a WordPress MU user, it seems to be very rare that I talk about WPMU that much here at WordPress Hacks. For those unfamiliar with WordPress MU, it is a multi-user version of WordPress, allowing you to control thousands of blogs with a single installation of WordPress. This of course makes it ideal for blog networks, newspapers and magazines, or universities.
I know a number of our readers do use WordPress MU, so I wanted to let you know that our friend Andrea of WPMU Tutorials has taken her popular post and published the information in an ebook explaining how to install WordPress MU. For people that are considering starting a network of blogs, you'll want to check out this free ebook!
Introducing the Success with WordPress eBook
Back in late January 2008, I asked our readers " Would you be interested in a WordPress eBook?" Along with that question, I also took an informal poll of whether people would prefer to get a free eBook or purchase an eBook. That may seem like a silly question, but there is a significant increase in the quality of an eBook that you buy over a free eBook, so I needed to know what people wanted.
In my poll I got a variety of answers, but between the comments from that post and the emails that I received, I was given the impression that people would rather I write a more advanced eBook with a fee attached, rather than releasing a free one that was thrown together quickly and just rehashes stuff you can find in our archives.
Over the past 6 months since that post, I have focused on building an eBook that collects my WordPress experiences, techniques, and other tips and put them together in a new eBook titled Success with WordPress, which is currently available for $24.95.
Because I knew this book would come with a small price tag, Success with WordPress was designed to cover all aspects of WordPress. In the beginning, you'll find some general information about installing WordPress, finding good WordPress plugins, etc. Then it gets into the more advanced stuff that most of you will be looking for:
- Building a Multi-Author WordPress Blog
- Using WordPress as a Content Management System (CMS)
- Building a WordPress Forum
- Search Engine Optimization (SEO) tips designed specifically for WordPress
- Maximizing CPC Income with Google AdSense
- Advanced Affiliate Marketing Techniques
- Building a Niche Blog with WordPress
If you are looking to find success with WordPress, this eBook is definitely for you. Also, if you'd like to promote this product on your website and make some money, you may also be interested in the Success with WordPress affiliate program. It currently pays out an amazing 33% per sale and we have a 125×125 banner available as well, so you can promote it on your WordPress blogs and start generating some extra income.
Would You Be Interested in a WordPress eBook?
As WordPress Hacks continues to grow and expand, I've been digging through the archives and found a lot of great information (I know I'm a little biased). While I want readers to dig through the archives, it seems at some point that the natural progression is to create a WordPress eBook for readers to get a bunch of information in one convenient location.
So my question is this…..Would you be interested in a WordPress eBook? Let me know which of the following applies to you:
- I would be interested in purchasing a WordPress eBook at an affordable price. (Price would be $10.00 or less)
- I would be interested in downloading a WordPress eBook only if it was free.
- I would not be interested in downloading the WordPress eBook.
Update: This post launched what would eventually become the Success with WordPress eBook!

In Aaron Katz's Cold Weather, Portland, Oregon is a vacant post-industrial landscape, a ghost town of retired machinery that, like our post-collegiate protagonists, once felt young. Our main character, Doug (Cris Lakenau), is a college student on indefinite hiatus and a young adult in prolonged adolescence. He's clinging to his sister Gail (Trieste Kelly Dunn) and their family a bit more than he should. The sense their hometown used to be a warmer place is suggested both by the title and then by the job Doug gets: stacking blocks in an ice factory. When the film morphs into a mystery, it finds a way of marrying the highly structured plots of film noir and the willfully unstructured storylines of mumblecore. What Cold Weather doesn't indulge in is the needy emphasis most mublecore films have to deify romantic relationships, putting in its place a brother/sister bond that's looking for its own adult dynamic. Doug and Gail are perfect together; the siblings play their parts with a careful measure of frustration and generosity. The mystery, however, is not as compelling, but both are engagingly balanced against each other and that makes this exercise feel quite worthwhile. It could, like Cyrus and other money making mumblecore before it, pave a way to larger audiences and future economic sustainability for this cine-movement, which may be seeing its own adolescence (it's certainly having growth spurts). Box office, I believe, will pleasantly surprise us all.
Doug leaves college for the accepting but not permanently patient arms of his sister. Shortly after the move-in, they host their parents for a perfunctory dinner where it's made clear this kid is not sure of his prospects. Most wayward youth take art classes but, intrigued by the stories (and accoutrements) of Sherlock Holmes, Doug studied forensic science. It perhaps goes without saying he hardly evokes the diligence of CSI. He barely has the attention span of Barney Miller. He plans to leave his studies for long enough to settle into a working class pattern. This is his agenda before an ex girlfriend re-enters his life and suspiciously disappears, at which point his friend Carlos (Raúl Castillo) pulls him into a mystery plot that puts his forensic science classes to use and pushes the brother and sister dynamic into relief.
Sibling dramas are a familiar enough subject for the "accidental" storylines this type of indie tells, but involving the rigid mystery genre is novel. I love the idea of the pairing but found the mix of that particular genre and the "slice of life" aesthetic a bit unappealing. Perhaps it's because I have this hope that murder mysteries are rare, and a tandem belief that "slices of life" are happening all the time, so seeing the two subjects in such close proximity didn't compute. I had a feeling towards it that mixed anxiety and concern, as if Cold Weather should bear the warning "Do not attempt at home." Katz, however, is great with gentle moments (his most dear and haunting is the final scene), and he handles the balance of mystery and family drama quite adeptly. There's much to like in these chilly climes.
