Cotton Rohrscheib

I've been an entrepreneur my entire life and have been blessed to have been associated with hundreds of startups and projects throughout my career. A few years ago I started offloading many of my business interests to spend more time w/ my family and retool my focus toward the agricultural industry, ultimately I landed at Farmers Business Network, Inc. w/ a great team of people w/ shared mission / vision and the rest is history! I still operate my personal website & blog occasionally on topics of interest to me including; parenting, agriculture, technology, and whatever else comes my direction! My blog, cotton.buzz, is the product of over 20yrs worth of content, photos, podcasts, videos, etc., and all of the content I produce is mine personally, and only represent my views and/or opinions on topics and do not represent any of the businesses or associations I'm affiliated with.

Gosh, it’s going to take forever for me to get used to putting 2009 instead of 2008, seems like I just got used to putting 2008 on checks and things the other day. In lieu of a New Years Resolution this year, I have a few personal goals for 2009 that I want to achieve […]

Some of you that follow my blog will remember that I have been testing Facebook Connect on my personal blog using some code written by Javier Reyes of Six Jumps that he was kind enough to share with me. I have to admit that I have struggled to get my mind around this platform but […]

I wanted to share a resource w/ my readers that I am really impressed with. It’s a web service called YouVersion that is basically a bible resource website that allows you a lot of functionality, including quickly looking up a verse in several different translations and languages but the feature that I am real impressed […]

Twitter Grader

I have noticed a lot of the people I follow on Twitter checking their Twitter Grade on Twitter Grader today so when I ran across Mike’s post on the tool I figured I had better check it out for myself. Mike has a 96.6/100 for Canadian users, and that’s pretty impressive. I was also impressed […]

If you are browsing the Facebook Application Directory today you will find an entry there for The Cotton Club now! My Facebook Connect application for my blog finally gathered enough activity and users that it was accepted for inclusion in the directory! This is pretty exciting for me since the application directory doesn’t have a […]

10 Apps on the Facebook API

I was forwarded Adam Ostrow’s post on Mashable today from Joel Kunert & it was worth sharing since some of these applications I hadn’t even heard of before. As opposed to the relatively new Digg API, the Facebook API has been available to developers since the summer. With more than 100 applications now featured in […]

WordPress 2.7 has only been out for a short time but the folks at Automattic and the WordPress Developer community are already looking forward to version 2.8. If you haven’t already upgraded to 2.7, you should do so pretty quickly. It’s a major redesign of the backend / dashboard. I have slowly migrated my clients […]

Denver Broncos fire Mike Shanahan

December 30, 2008 by Cotton Rohrscheib Leave a Comment

I know that there are probably in Denver with stronger feelings about this than I do but I sure didn’t see the firing of Mike Shanahan coming today, I really didn’t. Sure, their season fell apart toward the end of the season, but who in the world are you going to get to replace him? […]
