| Site update: Ads and malfunctioning laptops. |
Hey guys, my laptop isn't working and this computer is kinda ancient and I have only limited access to it, so until I get my laptop back online (hopefully tomorrow), its gonna be hard to update, and that's why there's not been much stuff going on here lately. But here's what's on my agenda:
- completing the "Revenge" post filed under "song meanings", and exploring other songs
- a video download of "Oh! Gravity." from the CD USA performance
- a new poll
- the results of the poll "contest" (the one about the cover artwork)
- a cover SF did of the Police song "Spirits in a Material World" (its great)
- more never-before-released live bootlegs from back in the day
- a live performance video of "Happy is a Yuppie Word" on FUSE's Daily Download, another exclusive
...and much much more.
So keep checking back. Thanks for reading - I appreciate you guys' continued support more than you'd know.
Oh, and, just thought I'd clarify some things about the ads placed at the bottom of the sidebar, 'cause the site clocked 31% less visitors the day after the ads were placed, compared to the day before, which I thought was interesting, whether or not it had anything to do with the ads. Anyway, I put them on an experimental basis - I just hope it covers the costs of hosting. Those ads should bring in maybe 5 bucks a month (give or take, depending on how interested people are in the ads i.e. how many clicks they get), which is around what hosting costs these days. We hope to move to a server and, who knows, maybe the blog will become just one part of the site, once we expand. I'm already talking deals with web-hosts and web-designers, so keep your fingers crossed. But it would be hard to afford it without the ads, given my student budget, ya know? I'm trying to keep the ads inobtrusive, though - and honestly, I'm not exactly fond of throwing advertisements at friends, but I guess, like Jon once said, "It’s that mixed drink you have to pour out so you can start with the pure stuff." Besides, you could look at it as a way in which you support the site (but please do it legitimately i.e. only if you're genuinely interested in the ads - don't go on a clicking rampage, Google is smart.)
Thanks for reading, may the Force be with you.

Thanks for linking my review!
BTW: I did put switchfoot in that playlist. Number 10 is "Yesterdays", it just kinda got cut off. Only displays 9 for some reason. I was saving the best for last :).
