a record of thoughts

Right, so I hardly do this kind of things. I’m out of topic, so I guess I’ll report my earnings for this blog. The site is not well optimized, so the numbers are very low. I only average $100/month and with the traffic I’m getting, I should be able to at least double that, but I’m not going to submerge my content with advertising. I’m a bit slow last July and this month which I think was caused by the lack of subject in my entries and the change in theme. When I switched back to Blix, my average $3/day earning returned.

This is my first wordle. It’s basically a cloud of tags positioned according to your preference. It’s written in Java. Create your own now!

I’m back in New York. It feels like I’ve been gone for more than six days. Now I’m in my comfort zone. I have nothing left to say, except a few pictures I’m going to parade below. Visit the photos page for more. I didn’t capture much. I’m a lazy bummer when it comes to photography.

Okay I have been wondering about these in the past few weeks (or months maybe):

1. How come new bloggers still use Blogspot.com over WordPress.com?
2. Why is there a need to create multiple blogsites? (most of the time are not updated) (more…)

Okay, as promised I will be documenting the process of installing pre-Vista OS in a SATA drive. However, I will be documenting on a specific unit: Acer Aspire M1640. (more…)
