Kerri and I recently took a trip to all over Kansas, and one place we stopped was to see the Monument Rocks off of Hwy 83 about 20 miles south of Oakley, Kansas. While driving there it was probably the first time in my life that I can remember not seeing any telephone/power lines, radio towers, etc. You could see nothing but land in every direction and made it feel as if your were in the land rush of the 1800’s. Pretty cool experience indeed…
Here are a few pictures of the Monument Rocks in Kansas. If you want to go, visit this site for more info.
Well, I finished the first version of My Awesome Blog and it is ready to be filled with posts. Video plugin working… check. Cheesy masthead made… check. I’ve got a system going to make it easier to start new WordPress blogs - I’ve saved the default template files to a folder as well as the plugins I typically use - upload those after installation and I’m pretty much good to go except for a few minor changes.
I loathe making mastheads, but a custom one looks much better than the default one that comes with the install. One of these days, I’ll try using a different theme, but it’s tough to change when you have a good system that works!
I do have an idea in mind I want to try soon. I’m thinking of making a search result page similar to what they are doing on Mahalo. Seems like if you made a REALLY good serp, you could get some decent traffic - and Mahalo has done half of the work already. So, you look there to see what the popular search terms are and then proceed to research and build your own competing serp and in the long run make more money than the $10 to $15 one time fee they pay you. Hmm… I could make money off of adsense, text link ads and more? It’s a thought. I will be posting one soon, but tonight, I’m too tired. To be continued….
This is one of the funniest videos I’ve seen in a long time and I thought I’d post it here to watch from time to time and also to test and make sure the MyVideo WordPress plugin is working correctly. Once you’re done watching this video, you might wanna read the comments of this video for additional laughter.
Ahh yes, finally I have decided to start my first real personal blog. A blog where I can say anything I want, whenever I want without worrying or thinking about traffic, money, whether it is interesting or not… etc. A blog fer me. I’ve been trying to figure out what my personal blog would be called and out of nowhere I thought… “my awesome blog”. I went to GoDaddy, checked whois and it was available! I then registered the domain and then MyAwesomeBlog.com was born. By the way, I saved $2 off my domain registration by using the Godaddy coupon code “diggnation”.
It will be interesting to see what becomes of this blog. Will it be accidentally successful like some of the blogs out there and make me a six figure income? Or will it be a loser blog? Who knows? I don’t really care as I plan to use it to basically get stuff off my chest, vent, post cool links, images and videos and experiment with SEO a bit.
Well, time to do some annoying household chores and other stuff… hopefully I can come back later and spiff up my awesome blog and add another post or two.
