Or so I am told by Jake…for failing to make this little blog a the success he had envisioned. I never claimed to be a professional blogger but agreed to help him as I saw it as a learning opportunity…and I did the work for free and also paid for the domain and the web [...]
I did receive an email ad where I was, among other things, told that I could learn “how a good website can make or break a writer” which was pretty bad news to me…I had thought a good website would be something desirable but apparently not…I didn’t think I needed that course…:-) However, I then [...]
I stumbled across a very interesting site with information about blogging that I most certainly will try to make use of – I need all the information I can get to get this blog working the way we planned it. So far it is not living up to our expectations and I blame myself for [...]
I received my new credit card yesterday, and I tested it right away…it works fine…:-) The first thing I did was purchasing a domain for Jake (jakecoolman.com)that we intend to use to try and sell his short stories and to inform about the books (fiction and non-fiction) that he has been working so hard on [...]

My followers on Twitter seem to forget checking the blog before they become followers.
Since I have found “spyfu” useful when writing contents for this blog, I decided to apply for the affiliate program advertised on their web site. Today I received an email telling me that my application was denied. Any specific reason was not given, but the following “general” rules could apply: Quality Site Design Top-Level-Domain (i.e., [...]
I felt curios and checked my AdSense account and found out that I had “earned” a total of 3.31 US Dollars. It is not much money but it made me happy to find out that there are people out there in cyberspace who have read the blog and who have clicked on the ads. Whoever [...]
I know I am not supposed to click on the ads that appear on my own blog, but today it was very close when I noticed an ad from Canon. I am using Canon cameras and I do have a couple of Pixma printers and I am very happy with them all…and I was about [...]
