Today I recieved a batch of SPAM comments from an anonymous user via Blogger. The funny thing is that my Blog has since miagrated to Wordpress, but I still have my Blogger account hanging around. The comments triggered Blogger to regenerate my entire website killing my Wordpress installation.

When I first discovered this, I noticed a nice blue Blogger banner across my webpage along with a very stale theme. My wordpress cron job was thrown off guard as the Wordpress installation was rooted. I have sinced disabled Blogger Comments, and I can’t seem to find where my SFTP details might be. The SFTP box is empty???

I just managed to upgrade to Wordpress ‘Ella’Â 2.1. Looks Interesting So far. Morale of the story: SPAM is bad.

Google, Microsoft and Yahoo now all support the Sitemap 0.90 specification. This is great as it allows webmasters to inform search engines about pages on their sites that are available for crawling. Web Developers can also save time by using an adopted protocol.

We have Beautiful Weather. I’m Back up the top on Google again. Google has also introduced a Blog pinging service for it’s BlogSearch search engine. They also have a nice new AJAX Search API. The samples demonstrate it’s power.

L33t! Thank god it actually works.

http://www.google.com/calendar. Very impressive interface and features. There also seems to be a natural language feature whereby you can quickly add events. I clicked on “Quick Add” and typed in “Dinner with Jess at 7pm tommorrow night” and it created an event for me at that exact time. All the other Web 2.0 hype seems to be there as well. AJAX, Popup windows, drag, drop and resizing. You can share calendars and send invitations for events too. Have a look.

Hey look it’s the home of Bill Gates. Digg it as well.

Whilst feeling pretty generous I am throwing away six (6) free Gmail invitations.

Go easy on the free invites.

I’m a bit cut that I lost my Google Rank for ‘robsta‘ at number one. Therefore I have launched my own campaign to raise my search engine statistics. Quite simple, attract hits = position rises.

Reminds me 3 months ago when I was number one.
