I’m not usually one to brag about a design that I didn’t do, but today, I’ll make a small exception.
One of my favorite sites on the web is http://1800recycling.com.It is probably the most informative green sites on the web. They have amazing writers who know what they’re talking about, and they post topics in a way that is easy to understand, so I always look forward to read the next days posts. Although it’s one of my top sites online, it had some pitfalls in the past that they fixed with this new design and database increase.
One of the problems that I always faced with the site was the lack of usability. I always wanted to dive deeper into the site, but the site’s navigation would only take me so far, and since they didn’t have a sitemap, there wasn’t another way for me to look around. I was pretty much bound to the 5 available pages of the site.
Needless to say, they fixed the issue 110%. Not only did they add a sitemap, they also added several RSS feeds and categorized content pages. Navigation on the site is a breeze, and now I can finally read some of the older content that I akways wanted to look at.
I can’t give the designer of this new layout enough kudos. Go see for yourself: http://www.1800recycling.com.

This is my 3rd trip to Vegas in 6 months. I love this place, but this trip is different. It’s way harder for me to get pumped about being here. Don’t get me wrong, I’m stoked as hell, but I’ve spent most of my day today working and being productive which is counter-intuitive to what vegas represents. I should be out partying or something.
Tonight should be pretty fun. There are going to be some parties, given I go buy some “acceptable” shoes. I got us rejected last night for wearing sneakers to the club, gay. I had no idea that it was going to be like that, oops. Screw it, I’m at the bar right now drinking a beer, so let the games begin!

So, this is going to be my first time going to PubCon Las Vegas. I’m really excited to see what it’s going to be like. I can only assume that it’s going to be a HUGE learning experience, plus, the fact that it’s in Vegas indicates at least a rating of 7 or 8 on the scale of probable fun times. I’ll be updating my blog frequently this week as I pursue the awesomeness that is PubCon.
The only downside is going to be that I have to be away from my kids and wife for a few days, so that’s going to be rough. I think I’ll manage just fine with all of the distractions that Vegas has to offer.
I hope I see you there!

I know you are probably wondering why I am writing about dating sites, especially since I am a happily married man. Well, the fact is, I am trying to help a legitimate company repair a negative reputation. I believe in this company 100%, and I know that their business model is sound, and they run their company ethically. I have had the opportunity to speak with the site owner on several occasions, and I know where they stand.

If you are tired of dating losers then you should try wealthy dating. This means dating men that are successful and have accumulated wealth in all areas of life. They have monetary wealth as well as life skills that make them very attractive to successful women.
Wealthy men have far more to offer than other types of men. They have life experience that will interest and delight you. They have connections that allow you to experience life in new and exiting ways. They also have the maturity to listen to your needs and offer you support where needed. There is far more to wealthy dating than simply the money.

So, to further confuse the universe, I made a separate website for my online moniker “speakeasy602“. I am working on cleaning up my online presence and separating Nick Norris from speakeasy602.
I decided to do this because more and more people ask me why I go by both names online. I don’t try to, I just use my real name for some things, and my moniker for others. No big deal.
My speakeasy602 webpage is really simple. It’s a single webpage with 3 sections. It shows you where I am socially online. I still have a LOT of information to update on that site, so for right now, it’s kinda simple and to the point. I’ll be adding some RSS feeds from several places, I’ll be adding a photostream, I’ll also be adding twitter updates and a few other things.
go check it out: http://speakeasy602.com
I would also love to get some backlinks from my friends, so feel free to link to it.
