Web design at home saves you money
Over the last 3 days, the design of this site has changed a lot. Well, okay, only the sidebar really. I’ve put in more Google ads, claimed by blog at BlogShares, and put on FeedBurner links so you can subscribe to this blog more easily.
Sometimes it amazes me that I’ve actually had people click on the Amazon books I’ve recommended. And that just by having AdSense ads, I’m generating revenue. I like this passive income! (I think I made about 15 cents this week, but that’s 15 cents more than I had before!)
I’ve been in a bit of a social rut lately. My friends are all wonderful people, but I’ve been choosing to dedicate myself to getting this blog thing going. I guess I want to ‘fix it and forget it’ when it comes to the layout and design. I also think I’m slowing down on content ideas, which is a good thing. I’m actually getting some sleep now.
I’ve written around 42 posts for the month, and there’s still 10 days left, and I got this started only about 2 weeks ago. I know that every month, there will something to report, something that arrives in the mail which is blogworthy, whether it’s my credit card statement, my W-2’s, mortgage offer, etc. This is a never ending world of personal finance management. You can’t ignore it.

I tried to autodiscover your feedburner feed from your site, and all I get is the blogger gen’d feed. Have you done these steps yet? If so, it might be a bloglines issue (caching?) Just thought I’d mention it

I’ll check that out. Right now I’m too tired. I was wondering what that code snippet was about, but decided to ignore it. Guess that was a bad idea!
