I humbly invite you to check it out

New message forum

Just wanted to give my loyal blog readers a heads-up that I installed a new message forum here on my site.

And yet further proof of “selling out”—but in a good way :)

Well, I've done it again! I just signed up with the new Google AdSense program and will be adding advertisements served by Google into my pages. You can read my more detailed (and now, updated) thoughts concerning advertising on my SmileZone here.

SmileZone / Bladam brief update

Thanks for sticking with me even through sporadic updates and occasional technical hiccups. Below, I offer a few details on the (former) posting-comments-results-in-error (eeek!) problem, and the new Travel and CanonS400 sections on my site and so on.

Sorry, we’re experiencing technical difficulties

[ UPDATE: I think things are working more or less normally now. ]

Hi there,

I haven't added updated in a while because I'm battling some technical difficulties. Haven't yet been able to discern whether it's due to MovableType issues or stuff involving my Web host provider. Ack!

Just wanted to reassure you that I hadn't thrown in the towel on my blog yet!

In the meantime, you may get an error when posting comments, but they'll still show up, I promise!

Thanks for your patience.

On privacy and disclosure in blogging

See that disclaimer above?

I've often mentioned something similar on personal-type posts in the past, and I figured I might as well save myself some typing and have it automatically displayed above all posts that are in my "Personal" category.

Words worth reading

I've lately added quite a few links to the "Cool Blogs" section on the righthand side, and I encourage you to check out the new additions.

In the not-so-near-but-hopefully-not-too-far future, I'll be starting a Sites to Savor blog -- featuring both blogs and other useful / interesting / fun Web sites. In the meantime, you'll just have to at least occasionally peek at my blogroll

Looking for WHAT?!

Like most Webmasters, I'm able to see what search terms people use to get to my site.

Some are pretty understandable, like "funny jokes" or "costa rica pictures" or "friendly smile," etc.

Some, however, are rather strange.

Getting googled goofily

Back in early December, I wrote an entry about feeling rather small and invisible in the local Lindy Hop (swing dance) scene. In an effort to highlight my feelings of insignificance -- and well in advance of any Chicago movie hype -- I cited some lyrics from "Mr. Cellophane" of Chicago the musical, which I'd seen performed on Broadway earlier last year.

My seemingly innocuous action resulted in a rather strange and unintended result:

New SmileZone stuff: Humor House, Comments Leaderboard…

The Humor House is now fully functional and already seeded with a bit o' humor. Check it out!

In other 'Zone news, there's a new feature midway-down on the right-hand column that features those who have contributed the most comments.

I'm sure there's other new and/or improved stuff, too, but as usual, I'm workin' on my site WAY too late in the evening, er, morning (5:40am)... so I'm not all here. Goodnight
