So, this lens probably isn't going to enlighten you unless you're really interested in me -- which is had to imagine.

Nevertheless, this is a lens about the stuff I like. You can leave me a comment at the bottom if you feel so inclined. Thanks for visiting.

My favorite person in the world is my wife. She writes a great blog that keeps the world entertained and inspired. Here's what she's been blogging about lately.

These are my hand-picked favorite web sites and blogs

This is a list of web sites and blogs that I either developed or visit at least 3 times a week.
HopeToAdopt.com
My wife and I developed this web site after we adopted our daughter. It's an adoption support site focused on the adoptive families.
globetrackr
The globetrackr web service is designed to help bloggers and web site owners track their visitors geographical location.

I built this site too. It's not much to look at, but it works. :)
Prosper
Request a loan for up to $25,000 and set the interest rate you're willing to pay! Get a personal or small business loan through Prosper.com - the Online P2P lending marketplace

I'm a lender at Prosper. I think it's a great way to invest a little money.
Seth's Blog
Seth Godin's riffs on marketing, respect, and the ways ideas spread.

Some of my favorite movies

I'm not an artsy movie guy. Never have been. I like fun movies preferably with lots of humor or lots of action. I don't care what the critics say but I don't follow the crowds, either.

Some of my favorite music right now

This is a category that changes frequently, but my iPod's primary playlist has these songs (and many others) that I listen to frequently.

My favorite CafePress store

It's my favorite because my wife created it and nepotism is all right on the web. The store sells HopeToAdopt.com branded merchandise in support of her web site.

Online videos

One of my favorites below was created by a personal friend. The others are just videos I like.

One of my favorite web myths

I love the myth that eBay was developed to help the founder's fiancee trade Pez dispensers. In the spirit of that myth I give you Pez dispensers on eBay!

My favorite eBay category

I'm too cheap to buy most games at full price, so I like to keep an eye on the auctions for used games. I'm not the kind of person that needs to play it first. :)

More Youtube Favorites

I really just can't get enough of the "Will it blend" series.

Favorite Snacks

Yeah, I'm not really into the healthy snack thing. So, while I don't eat a lot of these snacks, if I had to choose, it would be one of these. Hmm, maybe I'll go raid the pantry now...

Things I find funny

CafePress stuff for geeks. It's funny to me.
