New Google Analytics Features

Wednesday, November 12th, 2008

Some of the new Google Analytics features look interesting. I’m going to reserve judgment on the animated graph as I’m not convinced its really comprehensible for many sites. Having looked at it on Tuesday night I’d rather not have discovered even more new features had appeared overnight while in a meeting showing it to a […]

NaBloPoMo…

Saturday, November 8th, 2008

I didn’t mean to do NaBloPoMo this year but since I seem to be by accident I ought to come up with a post for today… Except I can’t think of one so this NoNaBloPoMo post will have to do otherwise I’ll fail today.

BrandRossGate

Thursday, October 30th, 2008

So BrandRossGate continues to spin out of all sensibility. What they did was wrong but the reaction is just completely loopy.

Some Site Rates this Blog

Comment Spamming for the Novice

Saturday, October 11th, 2008

Here is a public service announcement tip for comment spammers spending their time posting to people blogs with meaningless comments. Posting to blogger (and any other system that adds a no follow to links) is really just a waste of your time. You won’t get any page rank from the blog you spam. Even on […]

Thanks!

Thursday, September 25th, 2008

I got an e-mail through my web site about a problem with a part of it earlier. I’ve fixed the problem but can’t let the sender know as the e-mail address they used is bouncing messages as not known – I’m guessing its typoed. So if you see this thanks 🙂
