A few weeks ago, the xiik geeks had a blast when we strutted our stuff with of our pooches, (or our loved ones’ pooches) on the track of the Indianapolis Motor Speedway for the Mutt Strut. Sure the weather was a little rainy, but that didn’t stop us, or thousands of others, from supporting the [...]
Yesterday, Shaun White proved that he is the best at what he does—snowboarding. He pummeled the competition with his signature move, the “Double McTwist 1260,” which consists of two off-axis backflips while doing 3.5 full rotations, all in one jump! By the time he reached his last run, the gold medal was already his, but [...]
Everyone has heard of Netflix in some way or another by now. The ads are everywhere and the service has rapidly become a household staple for many. I finally took the plunge myself and purchased a membership. Like me, most people used to drive to Blockbuster only to find that the movie they wanted to [...]
Fa la la la la, la la la la! Well, you know how the song goes. As the holiday season rolls around, lately we’ve been noticing some significant changes to websites that aim to spruce up marketing (no pun intended?) and maybe catch the attention of a few more customers.

I have to admit, I’m kind of a gaming fanatic. Just recently, I dusted off the old Super Nintendo gaming system and haven’t been able to stop playing it since. But why am I playing these older games when I have an X-Box and a Nintendo Game Cube with much better graphics and systems that [...]
“Good artists copy, great artists steal.” Since Picasso’s death, many people have attributed those words to him. But why would an outstanding artist say something like this? Because it’s true! There have actually been quite a few articles written on the above saying and why borrowing ideas is important for all aspects of art and [...]
Imagine this: You’re juggling four different projects all at different stages. Three of them have deadlines in the next 10 days. You are in the weeds right now — you need to spend every minute executing deliverables for these clients. That fourth project? Not on your radar. That client’s email? Nope, can’t look at ‘em [...]
