Links System

October 31, 2005

So, as of this weekend, all the links pages on all of my sites get their links from the same place.

Thanks to that web services system, I only have to update one list of links in one area, and all the links update on every site. :)

I like it, keeps it nice and simple.

New Projects

October 28, 2005

In my last post, I mentioned the idea of putting some recipes on this blog.

That idea changed to me deciding that my current cooking site had kind of reached it’s limit and it was time to start fresh.

I grabbed a good domain name that I could use and I plan to set that up shortly as a new cooking site. It will have a blog-like feel to it, but it will be written using my new CMS (the one I have running freekrai.net at the moment). Easy to make some quick modifications to it to make it have RSS feeds, etc.

I plan to move all my old recipes over to it, plus lots of new ones.

I’ll let you guys know the name of it very shortly ;)

Your Electronics Shop

October 26, 2005

I just launched Your Electronics Shop, the latest of my Amazon sites. This one is using a new version of my Amazon Script that lets me do more customization than the other versions have let me do. Hopefully, that will pay off in the end.

Find Cards & Updates

October 24, 2005

I upgraded my credit card web site at www.find-cards.com over the weekend. New design, new schema, new site. Much faster than the previous one.

I also set up the search script to work with freekrai.net the weekend, but I haven’t made the link available to people yet. Will be doing that shortly.

Other than that, spent the weekend doing some work for clients and getting the girlfriend’s house ready for winter. Helping out down there kind of makes up for the fact that there are people who get paid to get my house ready for winter.

Also, I’m planning on adding a new section to this blog. I’m gonna set up a recipe category since I also run a cooking site and am a chef. You’ll see some recipes show up very shortly.

Search Script

October 21, 2005

I finished work on my new site search engine script last night.

This script crawls a web site and then lets people search the pages of that site. It’s pretty cool and fast. Gonna set it up on a couple sites that I own to try it out. I also set it up to be able to create a google sitemap from the links it crawls so it will serve two purposes.

I like having a seperate search engine script instead of building it straight into the scripts because this way, it gets to stay universal through it all.

My plan is to brand it to sell after it gets a good workout on my sites.

Other than that, my overstock script is almost done and the site I’m putting it on is almost ready to go. Just a few kinks to iron out.

On a final note, that mobiTV that came built into my cell phone is pretty cool.

Phones

October 20, 2005

I got a new cell phone this week. My previous phone was giving me problems for the past year so I decided it was finally time to upgrade.

It’s a Nokia 6620, the last phone was a Motorola v300. Both were camera phones. This new one isn’t a flip phone as half the problems with the other one were related to the switch that says whether it’s open or not.

The new phone does video as well as camera and also has the MobiTV system on it. Pretty interesting, but hard on the battery. There’s also a slot for a memory card. Currently, it has a 30 megabyte card, but I may put a larger card in there if I ever decide to use it for MP3s or something.

Aside from that, the casale ads are doing pretty good on Article Base, and my new Amazon script is almost complete. This one has more features than my other scripts and allow for more customization.

I also registered a new domain today to use for overstock’s affiliate system. Gonna try making some money via them as well. Also gonna finish off my datafeed script and get some more datafeeds online on that site.

Busy, but with a purpose :)

Upgraded

October 17, 2005

Freekrai.net got upgraded Saturday morning without a hitch. The new site has launched nicely.

Also started running ads from casale on Article Base to see if I get any decent returns from there.

Next site to get a new facelift is my travel site. Also considering splitting that site up into two seperate sites with one dedicated to hotel bookings.

Renovations…

October 11, 2005

Ok, so I just finished getting everything in place so that one day this week I’ll be upgrading freekrai.net to go with the new design and CMS. Just making sure everything is moved over to the new site first.

Also getting ready to redesign a couple more of my sites that just turned 1 years old. My travel site, http://www.friendly-travel.info and my credit card site http://www.find-cards.com, but of these sites have made me money and will be getting facelifts shortly.

Other than that, getting a couple new scripts finished to launch and working on some new Amazon sites.

So many Ideas

October 6, 2005

At the moment, I’ve got so many ideas for new scripts and sites to get out there that it’s hard to know where to begin.

I end up starting a script, getting an idea for another one, working on that one, then stopping and going back to the other one I had started working on. Then sometimes, I just scrap that one and that with a fresh approach again.

At some point, I’ll settle on one idea and keep with it. Probably anyway.

Serenity

October 3, 2005

Last night, Patsy and I went to see the movie Serenity.

I’ve been a fan of the FireFly series for a long time and have the entire series memorized (it’s not hard, there are only 15 episodes), and I liked this movie.

I know, everyone with a blog is talking about this movie this week so my post is nothing new, but I wanted to give it a mention anyway.

My only complaint was they killed off the show’s funniest character. Wash was the guy who made the show interesting and any future movies or shows that may come out of this movie just won’t be the same.

Other than that, let’s see more of the FireFly class ship called Serenity.
