I added you as a friend on digg today, and then when I visited Runner+ I saw your name on the latest run! What a coincidence! Nice blog by the way, and good job with the exercising.

Re: Reinvigorate- Stat Tracking Goodness

I am definitely looking forward to recieving an invitation to this beta service. I just bought Mint, and I am only mildly impressed. This looks by far much better. (I'm just going to copy+paste a comment I made on a different blog about analytics.)

From personal experience, I have noticed that you donÃ¢â‚¬â„¢t need to pay anything for a good statistics system. Personally, I use these two plugins, and I find they satisfy all of my stat cravings.

1. Firestats (http://firestats.cc/)
Wordpress plugin that includes instantly-updated visitor count for the last 24 hrs, as well as referrer counts, popular pages, and user stats such as browsers, countries, and operating systems.

2. Tantan WP plugin (http://tantannoodles.com/toolkit/wordpress-repo...)
This cool plugin shows you your Google Analytics and FeedBurner statistics neatly in your Wordpress dashboard. Obviously you need a GA and FB account, but I think that having it all integrated into your WP account is amazingly useful. Unfortunately, you need a specific type of SSL threading or something, so it doesnÃ¢â‚¬â„¢t work properly on GoDaddy hosting.

I bought Mint Statistics a week ago, but so far I have found it to be only slightly more useful than my previous set-up. If you canÃ¢â‚¬â„¢t afford the $30, donÃ¢â‚¬â„¢t worry, your not missing too much.

Congrats on 1 Year! That's a big milestone.

Re: Jott could be the leap forward in voicemail that I’m looking for

Jott is a really cool service, that has more use than they point out. As someone who doesn't use all their minutes each month, I could basically text message people using only talk minutes.

Too bad it doesn't work in Canada...

I wrote a post on a bunch of other techniques for taking note on the go.

Haha, you beat me to the review! You'll see a similar review coming from Gearfire in the next couple days.

Is this sponsored?

p.s., your image doesn't display properly in feeds, it shows up as backup4allpreview.jpg.

Re: Plugin to Make Money with Firefox Referral

Over at Gearfire, I use the same concept, but I fiddled around with the raw code to make it more compact, and less annoying to IE users. As much as I hate IE, half of my traffic uses them, so I can't reject them completely.

Where can I get the log-on screen pictured above? It looks really cool.

Re: Windows Live Search Gets a Smooth new Design

Hmm, I still seem to be seeing the old version.

The new one looks great though! I have found Live search to be too cluttered before. I hope they changed that.

I love how everyone is making this out to be the Black Friday of blogging.

Everyone calm down. Stats will return tomorrow, and everything will be fine. This type of thing happens a couple times a year.

The link to #7 is broken, it points to a 404 on your site.
