It seems the new netscape digg clone has a few unfortunate bugs!
Whoever did it only used alert to put up a couple of messageboxes, I think a digg.com redirect would’ve been better for comedy value 
People who read this blog (yes, that’s you two over there!) might know that I’m currently working on a health/fitness/bodybuilding website in my spare time
We’ve created a pretty useful exercise encyclopedia full of instructional exercise videos
The only problem is getting it noticed! I don’t really want to pay for a link from a high traffic/high PR website.. I want the SEO to be natural, i.e. site geared for optimal user experience = natural SEO
I stumbled upon an interesting site that helps you to discover great websites on the web that others have visited and rated highly. Yesterday I placed a comment on Coopers Guns via StumbleUpon and since then there’s been a steady stream of traffic from StumbleUpon.. the techy nature of the users of StumbleUpon means little to no ad revenue but I’m more interested in mere eyeballs at the moment
Here’s some Analytics graphs to illustrate the above:
I’ve also purchased a licence for Shaun Inman‘s Mint.. I like analytics but Mint gives me a clearer and more concise picture of 0-second statistics
Most visitors to the site use Firefox:
And not many use a resolution below 1024×768 (thankfully!)
I was a bit worried that Adsense wasn’t counting impressions properly as the “page view” count difference between Analytics and Adsense was off by quite a margin. I realised though that quite a lot of savvy/techy web surfers actually use stuff like adblock, etc… that explains the difference!
I’m surprised there isn’t much about this online.. although I admit my search wasn’t very comprehensive
Anyway, for a while now I’ve been a bit annoyed with the TinyMCE editor in WordPress.. for example, when you click the “Insert/edit link” button on the toolbar, a popup window is launched which proceeds to resize itself to be a less than useful width
Apparently according to one of the developers of TinyMCE in this thread, it’s down to Firefox using the status bar width when it shouldn’t
Anyway, the fix is as follows:
Just after the statements below in tiny_mce_popup.js
// Netscape 7.1 workaround
if (this.isWindow && tinyMCE.isNS71) {
window.resizeBy(0, 10);
return;
}
Add the following:
// Gecko workaround
if (this.isWindow && tinyMCE.isGecko) {
window.resizeBy(20, 10);
return;
}
That seems to work alright and resize the window to a useable width!
The spam quarantine directory on my mail server just reached around ~200MB and ~22k emails so I decided it was time for a cleanout.. before that though I compiled a list of the subjects from all the emails for your viewing pleasure!
I’ve added a couple of new lists to my sidebar:
I ended up burning the source feeds with Feedburner and using MagpieRSS to read them – didn’t really want to do it this way but had a lot of issues with both MagpieRSS and SimplePie when trying to parse Atom feeds (e.g. Google Reader starred items)
