Goals for August 1 2008

I first set some goals mid last month for July 1 2008 and i managed to reach them. I explained why you should set goals, and i reached the goals set for July 1 2008. I know its a bit late in the month to start setting goals for the 1st of next month and i’ve kind of cheated because i can predict what i will achieve but i’ll try to be as realistic as possible.

Talk Playstation not getting a re-design

TalkPlayStation will not be getting a re-design simply because i think it doesn’t need one yet. Why fix it if its not broken?

Ok so every weekend i’ve applied updates to Talk Playstation. I think its up to the point where im happy with it apart from the design.

The second update i applied was ‘make subscribe to RSS more...

Massive jump in search engine referrals

A couple of days ago talk playstation received just under 3000 keyword searched via search engines. This is a massive jump thansk to Google’s quick indexing methods. It will probably go down today though because the keywords were for an update to the playstation network. At least this will help close down on that souce split i spoke about a month ago. In a months time i will post what the source...

New themes i’ve been looking at

Other themes...
