How And Why I Made The Switch From Vista To Linux (Ubuntu / Kubuntu)

A week or so ago I took a scary leap that turned out to be not so scary after all. I installed Ubuntu on my Vista PC. I’ve been researching this for a while now, and knew that I could dual-boot, so the plan was that I would install some flavor of Linux without getting rid of Vista. I assumed I would play with Linux for a few days, tire of it, and would be no worse for the wear when I moved back to Vista (which would still be installed and intact on my machine).

Online Reputation Management Guides

Glen Allsop (aka ViperChill) asked me if I wanted to take a look at his new ebook that he has just published, All You’ll Ever Need to Monitor and Manage Your Reputation Online, and of course, I said yes. I’ve watched Glen rise up to be a very knowledgeable young man, and I was anxious to see what he has to say about online reputation management. I know that he has decided to steer his company in that direction (moving slightly away from SEO), so I was definitely curious.
