Social Media Day!

I proclaim today to be SMD - Social Media Day. Or, rather _tuesdays_ to be that. Recently, I've realised that I have too many things going on and to few hours to do them on. So, using Google Calendar (although I think I will soon need something that better suits my needs), I've tried to structure my week so that each day has a theme. And today is Social Media Day.

My first point of interest will be take a look at relative newcomer  www.fotopedia.com/ and long time favorite  www.trekearth.com/ - check back later tonight for a review (or reviews). http://chum.ly/n/d1552

Schemes

I'm trying to organize my presence on the web by using Google Calendar. From now on, saturdays will be my "day off", while the rest of the days of the week have their preset focus.

Tomorrow will be social media day (SMD), which means this post should not be posted quite yet. But hey! Rules are meant to be broken.

And even if this won't work, It will at least give me a pretty straightforward view of how much I want to do, and how little time there is to do it.   http://chum.ly/n/d027c

Lancefestivalen cont'd...

It's not that I (entirely) blame the good people as www.sajtx.com for these mishaps. The events these past weeks are the only major troubles I've experienced since I started using their services in 2006. But it's a very aggravating situation, just having relaunched the site and having is pulled back offline just two hours later...

Apache is functioning normally

Yeah, right... After the server breakdown that forced me to migrate my homepage to a new server and basically start from scratch (since my last backup was two years old), recreating and reimagining the concept of Lancefestivalen, I was proud to announce the rebirth of the site a couple of days ago.

Two hours after going live, the new server "short circuited" and I was once again forced to migrate. And for a while this afternoon,  www.lancefestivalen.se was back online, with only minor losses (content created and modules installed just prior to the crash).

But now it's offline again. And the equally unsettling and reassuring message that greets me, is that "Apache is functioning normally".

Yeah, right...   http://chum.ly/n/b985a

Codename Old Galaxy

 

Elvar paused before the gate. Was he ready to meet with the ones responsible for sending his father back to the abandoned lands and - most certainly - his death? No, not really. But what choice had he? Taking a deep breath, he svung the heavy oak doors open and entered the hall of Eloon Niro and Ibfist, the two leaders of the Riders of Derik.

"I am Elvar, emissary of the Sons of Agon. I seek audience with your masters", Elvar said to the stout little man standing in front of him with a puzzled look on his face.

The above was written with some invaluable help from the Online Name Generator (online-generator.com/index.php). All aspiring authors or roleplayers know that one of the trickiest parts of the trade is to come up with original names for their characters. The ONG takes care of that with it's many types of name generators. And if you're not into fantasy or rpg's, you might perhaps be thinking of starting your own business?

Well, project "Silver Lantern" has now entered phase "Restless Limousine" and we at Greenla are excited to have come this far in the development of Dongcore. We have also signed a deal to have our product promoted by the popular R&B artist Thirsty Backpack on his North American tour this summer.

It might still be more fun than useful, but even so, it's inspiring and might even provide some fresh alternatives for the serious businessman...

Thirsty Backpack, the R&B artist, is joined by Navy Pink, Darling Yellow and BelieverBeliever on a one-off event in support of the superhero "The Lion", who was badly injured during his fight with Wildman Zutar and Audrey Darkblade. It was in the aftermath of that epic battle, that the world learned the true identity of The Lion: Ordinary schmuck Pierre Franklin.

Niels Gamborg has created a set of fun and harmless name generators that perhaps work best as inspirational tools. Just look at what I came up with, just by testing his site!

And apparently, there are more generators to come...       http://chum.ly/n/b6e0d

Fun timewaster

 

On  www.easystereogrambuilder.com, you can create customized, text-based stereograms and save them as .jpegs to spam your friends with. (Yeah, you can create images too, by creating black-and-white masks and uploading them, but that's a bit more work than I care to perform on a monday night.)

The stereograms work best with short texts. I'd recommend one word and big letters to get the best result, but guess it's also a matter of taste.       http://chum.ly/n/b6e07
