New Widgets Added To Galleries

2008-12-17T13:20:00.008-05:00

New Widgets have been added to the Dexternet Galleries.
Just some new stuff to play with, let me know what you think.

Widgets are found in the lower left hand corner of any gallery page.

Click the Visits tab, and the bar will expand to show the number of visits and the time since last visit on that particular page.

Click the Name Tagger tab and it will show the number of faces found and the number of faces named. This Widget uses the Polar Rose software for face recognition. If you've noticed some of the new pages have names for the people in the pictures. This software allows anyone to add names to the faces the software tags. By clicking the links in the Name Tagger bar you will be taken to the Polar Rose site where you can batch name tagged faces. You can also download the Polar Rose browser plugin which will allow you to name tagged faces on the fly while on Dexternet.net
(If you have any issues using this please let me know, there are some bugs that the creators are working out)

Click the Share tab and you can email a link or directly post an image to any community site of your choosing. Facebook, my new personal favorite, works great with this.

Obama Wants Me To Lose My Job

2008-10-09T11:36:00.000-04:00

MJ Industries (a 3 employee, sole proprietorship) has to make more than $250,000 to cover payroll, contractor payments, rent, utilities, city / state / federal taxes, software maintenance, Internet and website, and more. That's assuming we don't ever make any money for computer and hardware upgrades, marketing materials, etc.
Obama wants to raise our companies taxes to 50.3 percent!
You tell me what will happen to MJ Industries and my job if that happens.

------
"Under Obama’s plan to let the scheduled 2011 tax rate hikes occur, and his plan to raise the self-employment tax on those making more than $250,000, the S corporation rate would rise from 35 percent to 39.6 percent. The sole proprietor and partner rate would rise from 37.9 percent all the way up to a staggering 50.3 percent."
