Blogging Tools

I’ve updated the site bar a bit and added all the blogging tools and sites I find useful.

I discovered a new one yesterday, BlogClicker, it’s basically a rip-off of BlogExplosion.

You should sign up now as it’s new you’ll get a good downline and basically earn credits from other people surfing.

So what have I found useful.

The first of course being BlogExplosion, you can find my explanation and low-down on it HERE[/url].

This was prompted by me reaching 1000 visits on BE.

Another is BlogHop[/url], which is Your friendly neighborhood blog portal.

You can rate me here:

Rate Me on BlogHop.com!

BlogExcerpts[/url] is also pretty cool and allows you to share excerpts from your favorite blog posts to attract more visitors, it’s very quick and easy to use and attracts quite a few visitors if you have an interesting or topical post.

Then there is BlogStreet[/url], which I haven’t quite worked out the point of it yet, although a lot of pepole are using it. It doesn’t seem so show anything for my site.

Then there is BBA, Best Blogs in Asia, A directory of Asian blogs which has some interesting reads, and like most places a load of boring drivel too.

There are a few directory type sites too that I use:

Globe of Blogs
Weblog Directory
Blogwise

And finally for Malaysia bloggers of course Project Petaling Street[/url], a blog-tal aggregating content from a cross section of Malaysians being Malaysian.

For stats I am using SiteMeter[/url], which for free gives decent stats although I prefer Webalizer[/url] or AWStats[/url] in Cpanel. But for these packages to work you need access to the web server logs or at least proper hosting.

Finally I use WhoLinksToMe[/url], just by linking to it, then clicking on it you can see who links to you and where, which Blogrolls, Google, MSN and so on. Pretty neat!

As for the downtime, I might be down soon again for a couple of days while the DNS propagates to my new host, I’ve setup a domain for hosting and signed up for a package so Suan[/url] should be back soon too.

Had a session with my new personal trainer last night at the gym, was pretty neat, he punished us good, going to see him again next wednesday to work out my training program. My fitness isn’t bad actually, but my Tricepts are killing, not so bad today but yesterday was agony, serves my macho-ass right for overdoing on my first visit to the gym after more than 10 months of abstinence.

Have phoned StimX about my slow line, they are looking into it, going to watch Aviator tonight, should be cool.

Nothing else much of note has happened recently, am formulating some more interesting thoughts in my head to ramble on about shortly..

Watch this space.
