Along with the design I have moved the domain as well.

Earlier the website was hosted as a sub-domain on my business website – http://logicx.co.nz. Now I have moved it to an independent domain.

The theme (design) used earlier was a free theme from WordPress called NeoEase. The current theme is a paid one from http://themeforest.net/.

Blog engine is still WordPress. My hosting provider is Openhost.

I have also added some new AdSense ad units from Google. Hopefully people will click on those ads and help me recover some of my costs :)

Thanks…

Happy Clicking!

As they say – ‘words once spoken, cannot be taken back’.

But on a lighter side – the good thing about your personal blog is that you can go back and make changes ;)

 

Ali Hale in her post – Are Vampire Words Sucking the Life Out of Your Writing? has presented a short list of wishy-washy list of words which one should try and exclude from their post and mainly from the headlines of a blog post:

* Quite
* Fairly
* Sometimes
* Often
* May

 

These are mostly those adjectives and adverbs that make the readers either switch-off or loose interest. So as suggested by her go ahead and start making changes to your blog :)
