Goals! by Brian Tracy

Filed under: Books, Motivation — thatsoftwareguy @ 4:41 pm


goals
Every year, I make it a point to read a motivational book.   Motivation is like bathing – it doesn’t last forever and needs to be repeated periodically – although I must point out that I bathe more than once a year!

This year, it was Brian Tracy’s book.  I really enjoyed the entire book, but I must say the last few chapters were an absolute  crescendo of motivational remarks from great figures from the last two centuries.

I would recommend this book without reservation to anyone who’s looking for ideas on getting to the next level.  Enjoy!

Escape from Cubicle Nation

I have enjoyed following @PamSlim on Twitter, and listening to Pam’s podcast, “Escape from Cubicle Nation,” so when her book was published, I bought it right away.  I was not disappointed.  Dealing with a variety of both practical and emotional factors that must be addressed by the prospective escapee, this book walks through the process of actually starting a small business and leaving your day job.

SysCheck for osCommerce is now ready.  It performs a series of tests that look for vulnerabilities and common hacks in an osCommerce 2.2rc2a installation.

SysCheck – scan Zen Cart for vulnerabilities and hacks

Filed under: That Software Guy, Zen Cart — thatsoftwareguy @ 12:32 pm

A whole lot of Zen Cart carts (and osCommerce carts too) have been getting hacked lately. I put together a series of tests that look for vulnerabilities and common hacks, and called it SysCheck. For now it’s Zen Cart only, but I’ll do an osCommerce version soon.

Buy Both Now for osCommerce Better Together now available!

Filed under: That Software Guy, osCommerce — Tags: — thatsoftwareguy @ 8:53 am

After enhancing osCommerce Better Together with Add both to Cart, I thought I’d finish the job and add Buy Both Now. Buy Both Now allows you to do a one-click add of two products without attributes from your osCommerce product info page. It has been very popular with Zen Cart users; hopefully osCommerce users will like it too.

The Better Together World

Filed under: That Software Guy, Zen Cart — thatsoftwareguy @ 8:41 am

Can you have too much of a good thing?

A customer reported a problem to me last week with the Zen Cart Better Together Admin panel. It turns out there was no problem; he had simply confused the Better Together Admin Panel with Discount Preview for Zen Cart.  So I create a new page called The Zen Cart Better Together World which describes all of the additional features I have built to go around Better Together for Zen Cart.  Each feature is described, along with the problem it solves. Hopefully it will help make your Better Together experience better!
