Not here to drop
Unfortunately I am out of town for the next couple of days so will not be able to drop on other blogs until I return at the weekend. I had thought about asking the family to do it for me but by the time I have explained it all to them I will have returned. [...]
Projectwonderful ads – wonderful for whom?
As you can see I added projectwonderful ads to the right of my blog but I am starting to wonder if this was a good move. I left everything to the Projectwonderful defaults so the first ads where for free and then incrementing at $0.01c per day. Now to be honest, 4 ads at $0.01 [...]
What would be useful
in the Entrecard inbox is something showing the number of drops the dropper has made on your blog in the past x days, x being 5 or 7 or something like that. Why? When you get a large number of drops, some like dropping on consistent droppers, others like dropping on new droppers and some [...]
Welcome to Our first direct advertiser
I am pleased to say welcome to my first direct advertiser on the left. JobysBlog‘s ad has finally confirmed that the OIOPublisher script is at last fully functional. It has been a testing period ironing out a few bugs with the script but now it’s there I am so happy. Joby has obviously realised that [...]

What a nightmare 400 drops received

Problems paying for ad space
It was reported to me yesterday that when ordering an adspot on my blog and opting to pay with EntreCard Credits, the EntreCard API was returning an error reporting a bug in the API. No wonder I was seeing orders for ads but no payments. Well Entrecard claimed I must have used the wrong Seller [...]
Top 10 in category
I’ve been using Entrecard for about 3 or 4 weeks now and somehow this blog has managed to get into the top 10 for the Mixed Bag category based on the Entrecard popularity. Now my target is to get into the top 3 but that’s not going to be easy, my popularity needs to increase [...]
Sorry for the disruption
HI All I would like to apologise to those web site owners and bloggers who are hosted on my server for the short downtime experienced within the past half hour. I believe I know which site caused the problem and I will be monitoring it and if necessary moving it to another of my servers [...]

I just received an email titled ‘Live long enough to be a problem to your kids‘ containing some photo’s and I thought I would share a few with you. Sorry but they made me laugh:)
