The Only Thing I Miss About East Coast Living. June 21, 2013. Soil That’s what I miss about living on the east coast. On the east coast (and obviously elsewhere in the country), the lawns grow in real soil. Not here. I love West Richland. I love our neighborhood. I love our house. But it’s darn near impossible to have a really beautiful and healthy lawn in […]. My Google Glass Bathroom Policy. May 18, 2013. Oh Tweetbot, Sometimes You Make Twitter So Difficult.

My U2 Playlist on U2.com - Matt McGee
http://www.mattmcgee.com/my-u2-playlist-on-u2-com
My U2 Playlist on U2.com. July 1, 2012. The folks who handle editorial on U2.com invited me again to contribute to an ongoing series called “My U2 Playlist.” (That must mean my first contribution. Wasn’t a complete turn-off.). The premise is pretty simple: You just pick up to 15 of your favorite songs and explain why you love them. Choosing 15 songs and writing the playlist, however, wasn’t so simple. I think my original list had something like 34 songs on it. U2 didn’t really catch me hook, line a...

2016 WA Primary Voting Record. July 24, 2016. I’ve been trying to keep track of my voting record in the big election years to see which way I lean politically over time. I think I’ve typically tended to vote about 60% conservative, 40% liberal — which is about where I was during the 2012 primary election. We live in a vote-by-mail county, so […].

Netflix on Your Hotel Remote Control - Matt McGee
http://www.mattmcgee.com/netflix-on-your-hotel-remote-control
Netflix on Your Hotel Remote Control. March 15, 2015. That’s the TV remote control that was in my hotel room recently on a business trip to San Jose. Right there near the top was a Netflix button — I’d never seen a remote like that. Have you? Or maybe I’ve just not been staying in the right hotels? Anyway, pressing the button pulled up a Netflix login screen on the TV. Put in my username and password and BOOM! Super clever, don’t you think? Charles J. McGee, 1930-2015. 8220;U2 Biographer”.

Our Minimalist Christmas Lighting. November 29, 2012. We don’t do outdoor Christmas lights at Casa McGee. At least not in the traditional, showy, make-the-house-bright-enough-to-be-seen-on-Mars way. It’s not that we don’t like Christmas lights; quite the contrary, and we drive around every Christmas eve and admire what other Tri-Cities homes have put on display.

As a journalist/writer, I believe it’s important to be honest, fair and objective in news coverage. Part of that includes being open about potential conflicts of interest, and the things I do to avoid them. In short: I do my best to not allow any kind of relationship to impact what I write in any way. For the longer version, read on. I began blogging (on a now-defunct Blogspot blog) in 2004, and launched the Small Business Search Marketing blog. Of Third Door Media. Conferences and Digital Marketing Depot.
