Another good one from Google. All I wanted to see was some YouTube Videos of Neil Young song covers then boom, Sandstorm by Darude! Although that is a pretty good song too. Happy April Fools day! This reminds me of last year’s April Fools by Google. Ads on other planets and moons.← continue reading →
First Adsense Achievement
Just saw this notice on my Adsense dashboard. What does this mean you say? Well this means that since I started using Adsense, visitors on my blogs have been successfully served or shown Adsense ads 1,000,000 times. Yay! I actually can’t remember if this is my first achievement. It says here that there should have…← continue reading →
Google Adsense Performance on Planets & Moons
So it seems Google Adsense has expanded and began to monitors page views from distant planets and their satellites (moons). I never thought it would expand this big. Too bad I haven’t anticipated this. I should have planned ahead. What a fool I was. Think of the opportunities. I better revise my strategies. April Fools!…← continue reading →

There are a lot of websites dedicated to collecting WordPress themes then redistributing them. The problem is that most, if not…← continue reading →
XMedia Recode: Free Video Encoding Software
This program just might be the best free video encoding software available. It’s quite a mystery to me that despite being powerful and completely free, XMedia Recode is relatively unknown. This may be due to the program looking complicated and not newbie friendly. I’ve also been using other equally amazing free software like Format Factory,…← continue reading →
Suspiciously Edited WordPress Theme
I came upon a Russian site that distributes WordPress themes that are mostly taken from WordPress.org and some that come from other sources. I was a bit surprised that the theme I just submitted to WordPress.org was available there. The site’s domain name seems official, “wp-templates” with a Russian tld, but it is definitely not…← continue reading →
