Today, everything seems to be niche’ed.  In an ever increasing global economy, focusing is, oddly enough, becoming smaller and smaller.  “Niche Marketing” has been touted as the way to go over the past decade. 
With that in mind, is it any wonder that children’s toys are following suit?  Computer powered gizmos of all sizes tell our [...]

Back in the 1998, it was quite acceptable to throw up a few HTML pages, set up a hit counter, and then sit for months with the same unchanging content.  People would visit, people would read, more people would visit, more people would read…..the same content, over and over.  In fact, I had quite a [...]

First, you must read this.  This right here.   For I am now convinced that I have found the diagnosis to my prolonged disease. 
It’s Cleanus Interruptus, folks.
And as much as I hate to admit it, I believe some of these other diseases affect me at times too!

I can’t believe I’m about to hit my 250th post here at Little Jack’s Corner! When I started this blog back in January, I had no idea I would take it this far. Blogging was sooooo “not my thang”.  Oh, I could do websites (such as my collie sites, www.CollieDogOwners.com and www.CollieShop.com), and had tried a [...]
