Oops

Well, it’s just past midnight so I guess I technically failed on the ‘blogging every day’ thing right away :P Oh well, looks like there will be 2 entries ‘today’ ;)

I’m such an idiot, I forgot that WordPress is set so that if you’ve never commented before, then the comment goes into moderation and I have to approve it before it shows up. I was wondering why I only had 10 comments lol. So, I’ve accepted them all now and I will be going to return them as soon as I’ve finished typing this entry.

Andy found a web site today that rates your site on various things and gives a score out of ten (if I remember to get the link from him I’ll post it). Anyway, Star-Girl.org was (is?) apparently rated the 330,772nd (I think!) most popular web site on the Internet, which is quite weird/scary/impressive/annoying that I moved domains :P Also, Blossom.nu reached 1,000 visitors today!! It’s kind of strange the way the splash counter and the WP counter are over 100 visitors different though… And of course I just noticed that my comment plugger isn’t working, so guess what I’ll be doing tomorrow :roll: It isn’t returning any errors either, so I’m guessing that unless I messed something really basic up, it’s going to be pretty tough to fix.

One of the most interesting new features of http://sitemeter.com – the counter I have on the splash page – is the ‘World Map’ thing, where you can see where your last 100 visitors came from for free. I was quite surprised there were no Aussies visiting until I remembered about the hugeee time difference (I’m having a lot of stupid moments recently). I meant to do a lot more work on the site today than I did. I uploaded a few new pics to ‘Stock Photos’, but I still have around another hundred to add I think. Also, I created a ‘Using the Search’ page, as I noticed the navigation to it is really annoying and it’s not at all obvious that ‘Previous entries’ at the bottom of your search actually brings up more search results :evil:

So today Kieran and Richard came round, we played a lot of Gamecube (Smash Bros and Mario Party), I messed around on the Internet, ‘kind of’ made up with my dad and chatted to my mum on the phone. I really miss being with my family, but I have work here and the house, some of my friends etc. :( The annoying thing is that wherever I am, I’m always missing someone somewhere.

I was aiming to go to bed relatively early tonight, especially as I have a driving lesson tomorrow, but that’s not gonna be happening lol. Oh well :P

    Wow that’s awesome! (About the great Star-Girl rating/Blossom visitor count stuff :D) Congrats!

    Gamecube is fun, I like Smash Bros better than Mario Party though.

    Good luck on your driving lesson tomorrow!

    Hehe, there’s actually an option that you can uncheck so that you don’t have to have all of the comments go into moderation.

    Wow, your site is sooooooooo popular! You’re soo lucky, Jenni! Hehe.

    Ooh, Gamecube… Hehe, I need to start playing my PS2 before school starts again!

    Anyways, good luck with your driving lesson!!

    Wow well done on the site rating :) Your site deserves to be rated highly considering the amount of work and time you put into helping people and improving your site. I’m sure Blossom.nu will be just as great, if not better.

    Ooo the Gamecube. I’m rubbish with games but yeah sounds fun :)

    Have a great drive, watch out for the silly pedstrians haha.

    Nice to hear that you’ve kind of made up with your Dad. Aww yeah it’s understandable that you miss your family, it’s nice that you can still call them even if it isn’t seeing the face to face.

    I like the fact that you added a zoom type feature, it’s a great idea. The site is very organised, with all the broken down categories. The search page is a great idea. Your site is getting better everyday :D

    Thanks for the comment you left on my site :D that was really kind of you :D

    Hey, well done of the site rating, with all the work you out into it, you deserve it, I jump off walls when I get 8 comments on my blog, nevermind anything like that. Nice to see Blossom hasn’t effected you’re hits either

    Oooh, I haven’t played on a console in ages.

    I understand the missing thing, one of them lose-lose situations. It’s good you still kep in touch as well.

    That’s so great that Star-Girl was so popular. This one will get there too I’m sure, as long as all of your visitors know to come her now instead. :)
