Gmail Hack: Stop Creating Multiple Trash Gmail Accounts

Submitted by brian on Tue, 07/27/2010 - 12:02

I wrote about this useful hack back in January, and I want to make sure my readers can see it here too.

"With gmail accounts, you can add a +”anything” right before the @gmail.com and google will ignore it. This is a little confusing, so let me give you an example.

If my email is brian@gmail.com (I wish I had that address), I could sign up for the first twitter account with brian+twitter1@gmail.com. I could then sign up for another twitter account with brian+twitter2@gmail.com. All of the emails would get sent to brian@gmail.com."

Brian Danowski's Minimalism Blog

Submitted by brian on Mon, 07/26/2010 - 17:16

In school I had a web 2.0 class.

We had to write a blog for one of the requirements.

I chose to write my blog on my minimalist adventures.

There are only a few posts, but you may enjoy reading them.

Note: The facebook post is now lies. I am no longer limiting my facebook profile to 100 friends, but it was fun for a while.

Theme Update

Submitted by brian on Wed, 07/07/2010 - 21:34

Welcome to the new look and feel of the blog.

The appearance will do for now, but I really need to make some infrastructure changes to the way my site works.

Soon briandanowski.com will be smarter and faster than it was before.

I bet you can't wait.

Please leave me a comment to let me know what you think of the new look.

I just broke a few css rules and it is too late to stay up and figure out what happened right now.

I <3 Kwame's Lawyer

Submitted by brian on Thu, 06/24/2010 - 21:56

I am admittedly getting in late on the Kwame coverage, but I can't stay away. If you are unfamiliar with the Kwame story, take a few minutes to get up to speed.

His PR team is calling a series of indictments a victory, and his lawyer had an odd response when asked if he is working pro bono.

Portfolio update - and iPhone 4?

Submitted by brian on Thu, 06/24/2010 - 16:29

My portfolio just got a much deserved update. You should go check it out right now.

On the off chance that you were wondering, I did not get the new iPhone 4 today. I am still rocking the candy-bar feature phone.

It gets internet, but I suspect that it is the real internet. It must be the internet's quirky uncle.

Although I can't use it to log in to twitter, beJohn.org looks great on the two inch screen.

Quick Update And Some Shameless Begging

Submitted by brian on Wed, 06/09/2010 - 13:06

Hi everyone.

I just added a lame button that lets you like my home page on the right side. You know you want to click it. It will make you happy. I promise.

Thanks for your help.

So I have been blog challenged.

Submitted by brian on Thu, 04/15/2010 - 21:59

When I say blog challenged, I am not referring to the trouble that I have been having putting out posts consistently.

In a recent blog post, Kirsten (who writes the hilarious blog Bellyshirts), wrote about a guy who is putting up ads for romantic roommate relationship.

Naturally, I accepted the challenge, and here is a little taste of my communication with this mysterious craigslist poster.His name is William. He lives in L.A. He is throwing in a Starbucks allowance. He has a boat in Florida.

I have assumed the role of Jessica.

Here are the inagural texts.William

Me: hey there
William: Hey there back. U like my ad on craigs?
Me: Yea, I dig the alliteration: romantic roommate relationship.
William: Well, well, well, what do we have here? A beauty with brains? Tell me about urself, what u do or aspire to do, etc...
Me: so, are you who the ad is for, or is that your boss?
William: My asst put it up. Ur talking to her boss, William. With whom do I have the pleasure of texting?
Me: My name is Jessica, and public relations is my thing.
William: That's refeshing, as most of the girls responding to my ad are Hollywood hopefuls, models, the usual suspects. So, what do we look like? Read more »

Official Brian Danowski TV Announcement

Submitted by brian on Mon, 04/05/2010 - 19:12

I have finally worked out the official schedule for Brian Danowski TV. I want to thank the three of you who voted.

The show will be on Monday and Wednesday night at 9:15 EST.

The two shows will be set up differently.

Monday's show will be casual and conversational. For the most part it will just be me in front of the camera. It is great if anyone wants to show up and hang out. Who knows what will happen.

Wednesday's show will still be live, but it will be more planned out. I will probably have a few pre-recorded videos and show notes to go along with each show. It will also be recorded and available as a video and possibly audio podcast.

I will aim to start both shows at 9:15 EST, but I will probably turn the camera on before the show whenever possible.

I will be using Monday's show to experiment with calls so that I can bring them back into the recorded show each week.

Let me know what you think of these plans either in the comments here or on the chat room on the show tonight.

Also, watch out for a new Brian Danowski TV logo that is in the works.

Let Me Know What You Think Of My Logo

Submitted by brian on Sun, 04/04/2010 - 08:38

After some sketching, and a bit of work in illustrator, I have come up with this logo for my personal brand.

It isn't final yet. I am liking the eyeglasses, but I am not sure about the hair.

I would love to get your feedback – positive or negative. Remember that you can post comments anonymously so don't be scared to tell me what you really think!

Brian Danowski TV Lives Again

Submitted by brian on Mon, 03/29/2010 - 22:13

I just finished broadcasting an episode of Brian Danowski TV.

It could have gone a bit smoother, and only 5 minutes of it got recorded, but that's ok. I need the practice. I am using ustream's new desktop client. This works quite a bit better than the browser based controls, but it still isn't perfect.

Normally I would embed the recording here, but it seems that only 5 minutes got recorded, so I will just post a commercial instead. Enjoy.
