Posted in Geek by Cujo
July 31st, 2006 - 11:31 PM

So I’ve had Feedburner installed and running stats for the past week. Admittedly I’m a stats junky and the more little features I find that keep track of different stats I have to have (this sentence makes no sense). So for the past week I’ve been watching my Feedburner stats go up then [...]

As part of the Problogger Group Writing Project you had to read through the posts which not only gave you exposure to other blogs but also to their thoughts/ideas on what they’d change. I learned more in this reading process than in my first year of blogging. Below you’ll find my “top reads” [...]

The Salads played Foggy Notions this past Friday. To be honest I was there mainly for Bondar (story below) but thought I’d stick around to see what The Salads had to offer. I was just about to leave but then they came on stage so I decided to pull the camera back [...]

On Friday the Sault’s newest band Bondar opened up for The Salads at Foggy Notions. Marco (seen above) asked me to come out to shoot some photography for the band so I showed up and did my best. It was my first time shooting at Foggy’s and to be honest I’m not that [...]

Okay some funky stuff is going on but I think I have most of it solved now. After I had the bandwidth issue solved my .htaccess file killed itself making all links useless. I then spent the next thirty minutes trying to rebuild this file with WordPress’ built in functions and it wasn’t [...]

Well it looks like if you tried accessing the site in the past 3 hrs or so it was down due to a bandwidth overload.Ã? I take fully blame as I received the 80% warning but didn’t do anything about it as I assumed it would last for the few days left of the [...]

I’m not a professional blogger but I read ProBlogger and pretend I’m one. One day maybe I’ll even become one — I do have plans but I’ll settle for a professional blogger who can just cover server fees or maybe car payments.

Okay so I’m starting to get into blog optimization. Yes I know. It’s been a year and I haven’t done much on the blog front but now I’m making the change.
