Blogger’s Block

2007 at 10:00am | by Dave

I’m trying to keep up with the number of posts Jay makes…sometimes we’ll have friendly good natured competitions over things like this, but I’m having a hard time with the blog. I don’t want to write pointless drivel, however I just seem to be perpetually having blogger’s block.
I can come up with a bunch of […]

LinkMetro is Evil.

2007 at 7:19am | by Dave

In my last post, I mentioned how I pushed to build a large number of sites late last year and how that has got us into trouble now. You’re probably wondering how we did this and the simple answer is LinkMetro.com. Last year, things were a lot different. You could put tiny 50×50 images beside […]

Jay and I are planning our next work day for this Thursday, but it may not work out because he is currently selling his house and showings can pop up at any time.
However, provided no home showings get in the way, we’ll be spending the day working on two fresh new fan sites on clean […]

Easy By Design - ready to go!

2007 at 2:36pm | by Dave

Jay and I did a bunch of wrap up work for our new baby - EBD - this afternoon, and now the site is more or less ready to go. I’m pretty excited about the site…I really believe it will sell itself once the ball is rolling, and we have a small amount of cash […]

Perhaps you’ve noticed over the last few days that our blog posts have got a lot easier to read (Especially Jason’s). Well we’ve conned bamboozled volunteered been privileged to have the services of our own Grammar Nazi to clean up our atrocious writing.
That would be my wonderful Girlfriend Faith. (Really she was just tearing her […]

This week at the Morgan Stanley Technology Conference in San Francisco, Yahoo CFO Susan Decker claimed that their new advertising platform code named “Panama” has been a hit with their advertisers. It has apparently been able to “generate higher quality leads” and “increase click through rates”.
I’m not really sure if this is fact or just […]

New Blog Theme…

2007 at 11:48am | by Dave

You may have noticed that the look of our blog has changed just a little bit. We decided to go with a more streamlined blog theme. We both really liked the dynamic of the side by side posts, but it was a very awkward template to work with - the two columns weren’t really as […]

Lots of people use wordpress, textpattern and other similar CMS / Blog type systems for their sites these days, and you can always find plugins that will make it easy to add content or ads that are easily changed. However, these programs don’t fit every site and sometimes you need a bit of functionality that’s […]

January Earnings…

2007 at 3:50pm | by Dave

For the month of January we earned $78.36 per day, or $2429.31 in total. This is a pretty significant drop over last month’s earnings ($149.11 per day) but we were expecting it.
All in all, things were much better than expected. I was expecting a bit more of a drop, but some of our more stable […]

Recently, an anonymous financial consultant has made some claims regarding Second Life’s “so-called” economy. This is more than conjecture apparently, as an associate of his decided to invest 10 000 USD in an opportunity they discovered on July 2006 after doing some research and seeing SL being reported on in many popular financial/business magazines.
Apparently they […]
