Jude’s Eclectic Resources

When something new comes out or an update I usually wait to see what other people say before I jump on it to check it for myself. I don’t have to be the first to try something nor do I have the need to be the first to break the news about anything, I don’t mind getting a scoop every now and then, but it doesn’t bother me to be the last to know unless my partner is cheating of course.

I downloaded the Google Chrome browser last night finally and tried it out and I was very disappointed. I’m not saying I hated it, but it really ticked me off when it started crashing on me and kept telling me shockwave crashed and all these other plugins that people had were crashing my browser and it kept hanging up and no way could I even shut it down, I had to power off.

I also had problems with FireFox today every time I tried to drop ec’s it wouldn’t let me log off or back in so if I didn’t drop back then I’m sort of sorry, but I’ll get over it. I also added the noscript plugin to FF because I thought it would make loading sites better, but danged if it didn’t slow my browser down even more so of course I had to get rid of that.

Am I just unlucky with all this stuff that everyone else is raving about or perhaps I just don’t use things right, beats the heck out of me and of course those of you that know me know I’m not very technical. Here’s one mystery that I simply can’t figure out and maybe you can help me. I removed the Blogrush widget code so why in the heck are my posts still showing up? See below screenshot I just took, I certainly can’t figure that one out.

Click to see a larger view and you can see my post from yesterday is even listed, really weird. I am trying to remember if there is anything else I want to get off my chest, but since I am aging my brain cells are going to hell and I just can’t remember so in that case I think I’ll go have a couple night caps and kill the rest of them, so Adios till next time.

I just started Entrecard on this site after trying it on my other 2 blogs and I really like it. As far as I’m concerned it’s a great way to get unique visitors plus lower your Alexa rating and I have also found some great blogs out there.

So I am now working on dropping for 3 blogs and today with this one was the first time I did a 300 drop. Of course it took me a long time and I really didn’t get very much else done, but today I really didn’t care because I am learning.

I had no idea this was so popular or addictive. I have to go visit the forum and read so I can better understand what I should really be aiming for. I am accumulating credits right now so I will have a way to advertise on other blogs for a day at the rate their blog is going for.

I will get around to reading more entries on blogs when I figure out what I am really suppose to be doing with this. The first time I used Entrecard I didn’t understand about all the cards being dropped for advertising so I was approving everything.

I am sorry to say that after I realized what was going on I had to go back and decline some sites that I had previously approved because I really had no idea since I was a newbie with the program, but everyone starts somewhere and learns or perishes.

I can’t wait till I learn more about the shopping and advertising aspects of this whole process. If you are new to this then welcome to the club and happy learning about who to drop your cards on to help your website niche. When I figure it out I will be happy to help anyone else.
