Do you trust your link exchange partners?
Last two days, I’ve updated my blogroll to find out whether my link-exchange partners still have my link at their website. And what I’ve found out, a blog, which I remember to have quite number of links before, displays no more links. WTF? Because his site now has PR6 and is well blessed with traffic, he can remove my link (and others too) from his website. Scheiße!
Somemore, I’ve realizes that people put the links not on the front page anymore. They are intended to put the links on a so-called “partners and links” page. It is not fair, when I put the link to blog A on my front page while my link is hidden behind the front page of Blog A. Therefore I must treat them the same. I’ve created a Partners and Links page just like the others do.
If someone wants his link to be appear on the front page, my link must be treated the same on his website. But if you don’t want to link to me, yet still want your link on my website (is my blog that good? No, but I’ve PR5 
! ), you still can. I’ve installed Show Top Commentators plug-in. The more you put some comments on this blog, the higher the chance for you to be linked.
New design
The theme of this website have been changed again. Before this, I used my customized version of PressRow. PressRow is a two-column theme with a simple design. But after I read this post about how Tim Yang’s Problogger Clean theme performs to generate Adsense income, I quickly switched to the theme. The theme is simple with white and red colours (personally, I don’t like red). And it worked really well. With the same amount of page views, I earned more. Try it!
But, to be honest, I really don’t like the design of the theme. Therefore, I designed my own theme. Haha. Actually, I don’t really know, how to make a theme. This theme is a cut-paste-copy theme. The secret behind the good performance of Problogger Clean theme is the ads placing. In this theme, I’ve placed the ads following the structure of Problogger Clean theme. If anybody likes this theme, let me know. Then I can make it public.
Vista Speech Recognition Demonstration´s Failure
You also can laugh at this failure. Don´t they tested the system before demonstrate it to the public. Microsoft blamed the surrounding noises that caused the failure. Haha, that is why we still must wait for Vista.
