Paul Weller Experiment

by Edwin on Mar.25, 2009, under Music

I have been playing these 2 cd’s in my car for ages now.

If you buy any of these songs at Amazon you’ll get them at 256 kbps which is slightly better than you would get them from the Itunes store.

O yeah, the title says experiment. I just wanted to test a see how easy it is to add this kind of Amazon Associates stuff. I would say just as easy as adding Google Ads to your page. Main benefit is though that this is content wise way more interesting.

My personal fav at the moment is the Strange Museum (2nd album).

And yours?

Cheers,

Edwin

Just Started Blogging(Part 3)

by Edwin on Mar.09, 2009, under Blogging

It’s been a month now that I started this Blog. If there is one thing I particularly noticed it’s the fact that the tag “Start blogging with WordPress” is a popular one: it receives lots of hits. (And I might have disappointed people here) Most popular is however “You do not have permission to preview drafts“. A special reward goes to the Wordpress Statistics Post for attracting more lunies than anything else. Lot’s of comments, mostly spam. And I don’t know why.

The unanswered questions, taken from my previous post.

Q: So you have Tags and Categories. Am I going to make my Nokia N810 a Category or a Tag?

Quote from Mat, Co founder of WordPress: As best as I can explain it, categories are things you create ahead of time and only have a few of. Imagine them like sections of your site. The signs on aisles of grocery stores. Tags are one-off keywords attached to a post. You may add a tag to a post that you’ll never use ever again. Categories are meant to be permanent, tags are ephemeral.

I also found that tags are the words you would type in Google to find a particular article.

Q: What was the password of the mySQL database again?

I found what it was and I’m not going to tell you. ;)

Q: How do I transfer the ownership of an article from one person to another?

At the, almost, the bottom of the edit post screen you can set the person who edits it.

Q: How about Britney Spears?

Apparently she made a comeback, but I’m not going to post about that!

Q: Will the PW videos be removed because of the copyrights?

This didn’t happen sofar, which is great. However the SNL Video did disappear.

[Update]However it remains to be seen how long this will last. Read this:YouTube is blocking all (premium) music videos to UK users after failing to reach a new licensing agreement with the Performing Right Society (PRS).

to be continued…

Cheers,

Edwin

Paul Weller: You do something to me, but better…

by Edwin on Mar.05, 2009, under Music

A Year’s late on ‘Later With Jools Holland’. Jools another British Icon, as I discovered. Apparently at the time (1995) released as a b-side of ‘You do something to me’.

About

by Edwin on Feb.10, 2009, under Uncategorized

edwinoI am Software Developer, recently moved to the UK with my family and living in the West Midlands. I’m really into all sorts of gadgets. I used to have a page at Squidoo (and then I accendently deleted it It’s back again!).

This Blog is about all sorts of things that have my interest. So at the moment it seems to be about Blogging and Paul Weller. In the near future I’ll try to write some more stuff about amongst others VOIP, my Nokia N810 and all the other things that I’ve bought or intend to buy to make my life easier or more interesting aka gadgets.

Cheers,

Edwin
