I have been plagued by similar distraction problems in the past like the ones Jay just mentioned, and I still have trouble with it from time to time… but I’ve found a system that I find helps me get what I need to do done. It does take a bit of self-discipline, but I’ve found […]

Yesterday I talked about how your blog requires both quality content and persistent content. I referred to those two things as two thirds of a successful blog, so what’s the other 1/3rd?
This ain’t no field of dreams…

The masses (well… okay, 2 people) have spoken, and they want the option to subscribe to plugins. So it’s been added! The plugin isn’t interacting with our custom theme too well, and it’s currently just displaying a check box at the bottom of the comment form.

I just browsed on over to Shoemoney’s page and had the strangest thing happen: his page was gone, and all that displayed was a Dharma initiative logo with a message saying “The Shoemoney Station has officially shut down, thank you for your participation.” There was also a link to the Hanso foundation website.

Holding top commentator spots on Shoemoney and John Chow has done wonders for our traffic. We’re getting over 100 visitors a day and growing now. It’s been so successful that we’re on the lookout for other related blogs that we can get top commentator spots on, as well as the two we just mentioned.
We’ve also […]

As Jay noted the other day, he’s more interested in doing work sessions that are a few hours long, before or after our regular jobs on a daily or near-daily basis, as opposed to work days all day long. Our last work day was unproductive compared to others, but that was mostly because it was […]
