Experimenting is my thing.
At the age of 5, I always ask my dad for old scraps, electronics and stuff. I open it, but never put a single screw back again.
At the age of 8, I open up my toys and connected it with anything I can find in our house. I remember the days when my mom would yell at me “Clean up your mess!”
Experimenting is really my thing…
And I did it again - this time, with Digg. The result?
“My Blog Got Banned On Digg”
Not only my blog but also my account, and that’s a pretty big loss for me. I love Digg and I visit it almost everyday to hang out and read interesting stories.
I love reading those everyday Apple news, Ron Paul hoorays and especially looking at the Digg’s image section. I can’t bookmark them now.
Today, I’m gonna use my mom’s advice. I’ll clean up this mess, so…

A Massive Heart Stopping Mystical Feed Count Spike
Update: The Miracle Of The Mystical Feed Count Spike
Yes, that 6,856 subscribers under the sidebar is right from feedburner.
The title says it all, it’s a massive heart stopping mystical feed count spike - that happened in just one day…
I’m not saying it’s legit though.
It looks like someone is trying to spam me using FeedBlitz, it’s not that bad. But of course, it will mislead some people and mostly advertisers. I’ll observe it for a day or two and then I’ll ask Feed Blitz about it.
For now, let me enjoy the big numbers and visualize what would happen in the near future ;-)

I checked my feed count this afternoon about 4 PM (We’re in +8 GMT) and was ridiculed by this funny stat showing that my subscriber count was buried down to 290 from 564. Honestly, that shocked me at first as I haven’t posted from the last 2 days, but to think of it, my subscribers aren’t really that mean to unsubscribe that fast (Well I hope so!) as there are days where my blog is in drought longer than this week.
In the hope of another Feedburner hiccup, I visited other top blogs in my niche and viola:
Problogger from 33,000ish
John Chow from 13,000ish
Copyblogger from 26,000ish
It’s A Swing!
Just to be sure, I logged in on my feedburner account (That I don’t often do) and looked at what feed reader my subscribers are using. Yesterday 46% or 260 of them are using Google reader.
Subtract that from 564 that was my feed count yesterday and it will total…

First of all, I have to be honest with you that I don’t totally care about Pagerank. I did a few months ago but when I realized that it was nothing but a number between 1 to 10, it stopped my obsession.
Think about a world without pagerank. No spamming, no blackhat guys, no linktrains, no linkbuying, no linkfarming and no stupid threads on DP people asking when the next pagerank update is. Well then here it is your long awaited pagerank update. It’s not what you expected, didn’t you?
It happened yesterday, October 24 when Google shattered the blogosphere. It was all around. Someone even made a comic strip about it.
Questions have been roaming around lately on what really happened and why did all these sites’ PR dropped. No one really knows, but here are my theories about it:
Text Links
It has been confirmed, yet people just tend to ignore it – and I’m one of…

Auction Ads, an ebay affiliate middleman have announced that they’re giving away $25 to those new publishers INSTANTLY for FREE. Wow, now that’s an offer that anyone can’t resist.
And before that, they also bumped the affiliate commissions from 2% to 5%. Meaning, if you’ve referred someone and that someone earns, you get 5% of that.
That’s Mediawhiz being sooo desperate for new publishers! Great marketing tactic eh? They did that to text link ads too, giving free $100 worth of free links.
How about the old publishers
I know, I know… don’t worry, you also get the $25. They automatically added it to our accounts. I can see mine here actually.
Try it now, it’s freeÂ
So to those who haven’t joined Auction Ads, Try it now, it’s free and don’t forget the free $25!

Here’s one of the latest projects I’ve been mumbling about! Meet Blipoo, a social bookmarking site for “cool� people sharing “cool� stories.
I know that there are many social bookmarking sites out there with the same niche, but heck? Cool stories can’t be just on one frontpage right?
Blipoo is also here to help bloggers (We promise you, we won’t reset blips! ) drive more traffic to their blog because we do allow self promoting your posts here but, of course, please contribute some articles and blip sometime, eh?
In a little while, Blipoo should take off considering the web 2.0 engine has started to roll. I will be promoting this site heavily with some of my old (and new) traffic boosting techniques. (so watch out!) Maybe, this site will also turn into a case study? Hehehehehe… Let’s just see
And if you’re “coolâ€? maybe you would like to join the community and contribute some blips…
