A few Punts

Well, now that everything seems to be finished regarding this rant and rave, I thought I'd like to mention a thing or 2 that have made this interesting.

1 - It's been interesting to see what ads people are clicking from the AdSense ads on this page. Setting up AdSense was really simple, and personally, I thought Google would say no to my request to sign up. But, considering how popular blogging is, and how many people might stumble upon this site, it seems pretty worth it. I'm not quite making enough to pay off the house, but it's fun to dream none the less...

2 - Somehow, this site has made it onto the 1st page on "http://search.msn.com/" when searching for "Discovery Credit Card" or just plain old "Discovery Card"... How it's done that I'm not sure. If that's how you've come to be here (and you've actually read more than 2 sentences), welcome. I hope there's a nice link on this page for you to exit with...

Which brings me to:

3 - The Site Meter, or Site Statistics, Hit Counter, heck, I don't know what you'd call it, but the little piece of code you put on the web page that counts how many people have come to your webpage... Anyway, I'd like to recommend "http://www.activemeter.com". The reports that this website gives you are amazing. They also say where your visitors have "arrived from". And this is how I came to point number 1... I originally searched for a "Web site visitor counter" using google, and on another hit counter website, it linked to Active Meter. (I can't remember if it was through AdSense or not). I thought I'd give it a try, and this is SUCH a cool "product". Just give it a bash (and tell them I sent you :-) )...


It's been real. I'm sure I'll add a couple of comments over time. If I'm ever bored, and I don't have any other toys like a PlayStation or XBox, I'll be back here.

Til then, enjoy the read.
