Once Blogit changed to a new format in late summer of 2006, this day was inevitable. Up until that point I had developed a number of different blog templates and had learned all of the little foibles of this unique blogging platform. But as the people still on the old format become fewer with each...

Blog templates for anyone that wants one
Unfortunately I do not have a blog template for anyone who opened their Blogit account later than since the summer of 2006. For persons with Blogit accounts using the old format, you would be surprised at how little effort is involved in making a nice template for your blog. I have the scripting...

Ya gotta love this deal
At the beginning of last year I started a sports blog. I need another blog like I need scabies but this was a little different, with the set up of blogging software on a webspace and the purchase of a domain name, there was the possibility of making a few bucks.

Beware of the web forum whores
In the almost 3 years that I have had my little web forum, at times it has been plagued with spamming idiots and web forum whores.

Now I know how Einstein felt
Folklore of Albert Eistein describes his being so deep in thought, with his mind working on problems that challenged even his incredible mental acumen to such a degree, that he would find himself lost while walking his own neighborhood.

My long awaited report on making money with surveys
A number of months ago I had a fellow blogger ask me if all of the websites offering money making opportunities doing online surveys were legitimate. My conclusion is no, they are not all legitimate, many are more trouble than they are worth, some open the floodgates to spammers while others are...

The bandwidth theives return
Awhile back I had some knucklehead take some free downloads I had set up, bundle them with some other junk and begin attempting to sell it as a package on eBay. Problem was, he was using my web resources to do this. Serving images in his eBay listings by linking to images on my website... I began...

I sold an article yesterday
There are people here on Blogit that quite often sell articles through some of the article selling directories, until yesterday I wasn't one of them. Mostly because I had never taken it seriously.
