Free MySpace Layouts and MySpace Graphics just got transfered over to their new servers - and they should be running at full speed within the next few hours. I may need to mirror the databases for the sites once they grow larger. The sites should be functional within the new few hours.
I’m currently attending Southern Illinois University Carbondale and it’s been a blast this previous semester. My second semester began just a week ago - and it’s been really nice seeing people back at school. My GPA ended up being pretty good, surprisingly, so I know how hard I have to try this semester. I’d like to increase my GPA slowly, up .2 this semester - then I’ll be in a zone I’m more comfortable with. I still have to change around my classes to fit my liking - I wish I could drop my Math class, because it’s already difficult!
I have several sites that I need to get running, including some great ideas. In addition, I’m updating many of my older sites (including Glitter Graphics and MySpace Backgrounds). In addition, I’m completing our new site Xanga Layouts.
| Yahoo Ads vs. Google AdSense |
After trying Yahoo ads for a little less than a week, I’ve come up with the decision that Google AdSense pays out more. The amount of different, and unique, ad formats take lead over Yahoo Ads. I have talked with other webmasters on various forums and such - and they all claim that Yahoo Ads pays out more. Make your own decision.
I took the weekend off to relax before going back to school on Monday. On Friday I went to a local bar to see a show, but the ‘mood’ in the bar seemed lame - so it was somewhat of a boring night. Last night I spent time partying at home with a few different groups of people, and last night was fun. The last two days I woke up at 1:30 in the afternoon, I feel like such a mess.
| New Engine and Server Problems |
I just received the new graphics engine from my brother, and i’m going to begin by developing my new site, BlogSmilies.com - for Blogger, MySpace, Xanga and Friendster. MySpace Codes is currently up - but I’m dealing with issues there with server usage and such. I may need to purchase an additional server, and allocate my other smaller servers to other new sites I’m making… it may actually end up benefitting. In the midst of all this, I’m trying to start xCell Host up with some servers - but one I just purchased (I really nice one), hasn’t setup my plan yet - we’ll see.
| Server Problems and Upgrades |
One of my sites, MySpace Codes, is getting an additional server! About a week ago, we switched data centers and now we’re located in Texas. To split up the traffic for it, I added an additional server in Chicago on an ultra-fast cogent connection. I’d like to add one more additional server to assure more up-time. There’s still an error users are receiving - but that will be adjusted soon.
Additionally, I have four employee’s working for me currently and things are going smooth - i’m happy to see that things are getting done quicker with the additional help. I’m working on a new site called 1uo Blog Graphics, with an ultra short design. Last night I completed a basic layout, and I’m currently working on the menus - the site should be up soon. My brother, President and CEO of EWS Corporation, is developing an advanced graphics web application for me at the moment. Once that’s up, expect a lot more sites . I’ve got some pretty interesting ideas I plan to make public.
MySpace1’s progress is halted at the moment because of the technical difficulties. I still need to develop that along with MySpace Pictures.
xCell Technologies has recently expanded into independently contracting a few employees. So far, we have hired four employees for small jobs including data entry and programming. Soon i’m going to have a form available where users apply for various jobs I need done. Payments will be made via PayPal or Cash.
As you can see, I redesigned my portal a little bit to be an actual blog. I’m still going to add all my previous pages to this blog, jut in a different fashion. I just got back to school from Winter break and i’ve been slacking off a bit too much it seems. I’m currently developing MySpace1, and MySpace Graphics.
I’ve been working non-stop recently, it seems. The first week of my winter break was spent in Mexico, the weather was great and the times were good. Once I got back I had a few days off and I went straight to working for Walgreens fulltime In addition to working full time, I was also working on expanding xCell Technologies massively. I’d say I was working 80 hour weeks - and still ended up going out every night! I feel worn out, but I feel all this work will pay off in the next fiscal year. Profits for xCell Technologies have increased massively over the last few months - just that much closer to getting my new car. I may re-design this blog a bit in the coming days, we’ll see whats going on ;) .
