Earning

Posted at 8:01am on Wednesday, April 27th, 2005

Microsoft are offering 5 tips to make money from your blog. At the same time also doing the rounds is AdMoolah - where you can compare your ad revenues (which is Microsoft’s number 1 tip, rather unsurprisingly). I don’t think this is going to make me rich. Apparently I should expect to earn approximately £2.50 a month

The first thing that I’ve enjoyed this election!

God bless Channel 4. Apparently from the minds of the agency that brought you the VW suicide bomber ad they’ve commissioned the party political broadcasts that the parties really wanted to make. Sheer class.

Rather an odd concept (don’t they catch flies, not fruit?), but this is a rather nice retro styled flash game

Life? Don’t talk to me about life

Posted at 8:05am on Tuesday, April 26th, 2005

Hmm.. Given the rather hideous reviews that the H2G2 movie is getting, you’ll excuse me if I don’t rush in and buy these. They do look rather naff.

Things

Posted at 8:45am on Monday, April 25th, 2005

things has been gone for a while - so long in fact that I’d forgotten to go back recently. Fiddling with an RSS reader as I was, and ta-da, there’s a new post, and it’s a monster. You could use it for every spare minute on line for the next month.

Crank Dot Net

Posted at 8:17am on Monday, April 25th, 2005

No. Not a site dedicated to people having real difficulty with Microsoft technology, but instead a directory of cranks, crackpots, kooks and loons on the ‘net. Pity it’s fallen hideously into disuse.

Geocide

Posted at 8:09am on Monday, April 25th, 2005

Fools. The Earth was built to last. It is a 4,550,000,000-year-old, 5,973,600,000,000,000,000,000-tonne ball of iron. It has taken more devastating asteroid hits in its lifetime than you’ve had hot dinners, and lo, it still orbits merrily. So my first piece of advice to you, dear would-be Earth-destroyer, is: do NOT think this will be easy.
