Number 16

1 Comment

So I started a new blog already and it is my blog number 16. I fear that one day, I would realise that I have more than a hundred blogs and website to in my name! GASP! Gosh! I wonder how people mange THAT??

Although I have sixteen blogs, I have yet to include my ecommerce site, personal site and one empty domain. So, yeah, taking all these into account, I would have twenty sites in my name already! I hope to stop acquiring more domain names but then when a good name suddenly pops up in my head, I would feel compelled to buy the domain name, install WordPress and START A BLOG!

Gee… many of my friends have more blogs than I do and they are not even complaining.

If CommentLuv Parses Foreign Links

Leave a comment

As you know, I implemented CommentLuv on all my blogs. I think that this plug-in provides a great value to my blog readers and it encourages them to comment more. Did you know that there are people who would only comment on blogs that have CommentLuv implemented?

Lately, though, I noticed that more and more of these commenters have their blogs or websites in foreign languages and I have decided that if the feed parsed is of a foreign language and especially if the site does not load, I am not going to approve the comment but mark it as spam.

Equipping With Paintball Gear

Leave a comment

My friend, Ong, loves playing paintball. One day, he asked me if I wanted to join him and I said yes but that was before he showed me the blue black spots everywhere on his body! Gosh! Paintball is painful!

According to Ong, paintball is a highly addictive game and despite his bruises, it’s a pretty safe game provided players are all equipped with safety measures like wearing paintball masks and other guards.

ZephyrPaintball.com is a well-equipped online store specializing in paintball gear. I think that if II would like to join Ong every week, I have to buy my own gear. But first, Zephyr has so many things, I am confused and don’t even know what to buy. Ong would need to help me get what I need!

Smorty Star

Leave a comment

I am sure if you are a Smortian, you would know that there’s a star rating for bloggers. If not mistaken, every new Smortian starts with four stars and with each task that was accepted and submitted, stars are awarded which could elevate or reduce the stars.

Well, everyone is fine with that. However, the strangest thing with this star rating is that even if you do not do anything at all, there is no activity at all, your stars rating could still tumble. What was amazing to me was tat I used to have 4/5 stars but after two months of ZERO activities in Smorty, except in the forum, my rating fell to ZERO.

That’s GRAND! Now not only do we have to worry about eating Google’s eggs, we have to worry about being served eggs by marketplaces like Smorty.

Search Term: Kuku Chiao

Leave a comment

This morning, while checking the traffic starts, I came across this person from Singapore who landed at my blog from searching for Kuku chiao.

My god! Where got people search for kuku chiao online wan??? LOL I think this person must be a pervert lah! And I wonder why he landed here! Must be the post I wrote on Namewee and his Negarakuku song! Geee taint my blog only, don’t you think so?

I don’t know what’s up with him. Perhaps he has been going around the blogosphere looking for Edison Chen’s kuku chiao LOL If he was, then I am sorry I don’t have them!

Holiday Of A Lifetime

1 Comment

My friend told me that he is planning a wedding anniversary at an exotic holiday resort but he has not decided where yet. Of course, his budget will be the deciding factor!

He has been spending plenty of time searching all over the internet for good deals and one of places that he is eyeing is the beautifully romantic Riviera Maya. The place really looks so lovely from the photos that I have seen.

My friend asked me for my opinion and of course I told him that it’s up to him since it’s his holiday but if he does go for it, I believe it will be a holiday of a lifetime for him and his wife. HHmm boy, I really need a vacation, myself!

WordPress Issues

WordPress 2.5.1

Leave a comment

Just when I thought that I have gotten used to WordPress 2.5.0, a new version is released. That was a week or two ago. Hello version 2.5.1 but no way am I going around all my blogs updating them again!

I am not sure what new features or hot fixes are in version 2.5.1, I simply don’t have the time to play with WordPress all the time. It looks as if they are forever fixing things. Why can’t they only release the platform once everything has been tried and tested?

Nah… I think that it would be just my luck that when I do decide to update my WordPress to the latest version because I can no longer stand the yellow warning bar, a new version would be released that very night! Yerrrrrrr!
