    28 sites in 28 days

    Jake1/30/2007

    Mike over at Retire Young and Wealthy has decided to challenge himself to setup 28 sites in 28 days. Quite a tall order if you ask me. I’ll be interested to see how this works out for him.

    Introverted? Me??

    Jake1/29/2007

    Yup!! I found a really good post over at Blog Herald describing the introverted blogger and out of the 13 characteristics, 12 of them seem to fit me pretty well. This actually kind of disturbs me….

    Links Fixed

    Jake1/23/2007

    Well…They are fixed. But I used a really hacky way to fix it. I enclosed the Wordpress hook that calls the links in an unordered list tag. And then messed with the CSS until the spacing was correct. I’m sure this will cause other things to break. But it’s fixed for now so I’m going to leave it alone.

    Upgrade woes

    Jake1/22/2007

    I know the links are off a bit…I’m working on it.

    **Update** Meh..I got the links sort of fixed. I had to make them an unordered list which I don’t like right now..But it’s late and I’m tired so i’ll look at this later. Let me know if you find any errors or pages that don’t work just let me know.

    **Update2** So I really didn’t like the way the links were looking. So they are gone until I can figure out what the hell broke.

    New Theme…and stuff

    Jake1/10/2007

    So I found this theme last night and it really caught my eye. I installed it and it really seems to suit my site. It’s very simple and clean looking which I like a lot. And aside from the CSS stylesheet being a jumbled mess it’s quite easy to work on and customize. I have been thinking about putting more into my site and possibly adding some Google AdSense ads to see if I can make a bit of money off this thing. I will need to be a lot more active in my posting and possibly find a topic to blog about regularly.

    (more…)

    Comment Troubles

    Jake1/3/2007

    I have noticed that the text for my comment page is all white and I can’t seem to find the the stylesheet where that can be changed. The order for comments is:

    name

    email (will not be published)

    website

    I’m pretty sure this was working earlier…So I may have broken something in my poking around..
