I have removed the AdSense Advertising as it wasn’t doing much, slowed the page down a bit, and really was random if anybody clicked at all.
What made it worse, I was thinking about the type of posts that got ‘results’, and thus was changing the way I posted. I didn’t like that, as the blog is for me, so I’ll just stick to a simpler and more transparent blog…
Well here it is, the last post of 2009. It’s been a long year in the making. We are now out of our house, packed, and just waiting for the last New Zealand based events to complete.
I really love my iPod Touch. I have been playing a lot of Perilar (free), reading about CRPG history and game design. This has been helping my thinking on how I would go about making a CRPG for the iPhone/Touch.
See you all next year!
I upgraded WordPress from 2.8.x to 2.9 this morning, the site works well, but when I go to the main Admin Dashboard I get this error:
Not well-formed (invalid token) at line 1, column 1
Very annoying really, but I can still view other pages, so it seems to be a problem with the actual dashboard page verse the database or some other problem.
Will update once the problem is solved.
(12 minutes later..) Hmm: It’s now working… not sure that anything changed.
The company across the road from where I work, keep having their adds pop-up on my blog.
I’m very puzzled what AdSense words I’ve mentioned to trigger it….
There’s something wrong with Google Feed Sync (via FeedDemon) as compared to NewsGator’s deprecated service.
Over the last few months none of my own post have been showing up, so last week I logged into Google Reader and Ta-Da, 5 new posts, that were found “just now” in Google Reader, and then they appeared in FeedDemon.
But another issue with only using aggregation tools is that people keep changing there back-end blog engines and therefore break the feed link, thus they fall out of the news loop (Conor, Rowan), so once you discover this and change to the new feed URL, you’ve lost news.
Quite annoying.
Then there is sites that just disappear. Like Community Hacker, but while searching for it I found a new bot AI challenge site called hacker.org so its not all lost.
