No it’s not another stupid web game … well, not really. It’s a search engine, powered by google(don’t worry, you still get your precious google results), but each time you search(up to 10 times per day) you have a chance to win a prize, anything from a free movie ticket to an iPod or a PSP. Even better if you have firefox and are running the greasemonkey extension, and really … who isn’t, you can go install this nifty little greasemonkey script that will turn the google search page into a blingo search page. So you don’t even have to go to thier website, just use google as you normally do, get the same results, and possibly win a PSP!
My favorite part, if you get your friends to sign up with your referral link, like I am doing now, any time they win something, you win it too. So go sign up with my referral link and win me some stuff!

Want to earn $15? Well I want a new iPod! All you have to do is go to ipods.freepay.com, sign up and complete an offer. You have to have not used the site before, and you have to complete a valid offer before I will send you the money. And you MUST use the link I provide on this page. Everyone who signs up will receive contact from by email with the address they sign up with within 2 days. If you do not receive an email from me, you can email me.
I am going to be converting the site over from using categories to using tags. Everything will be narrowed down into about 3-4 categories and over the coming weeks/months(hopefully not months) I will get around to tagging all of the posts. I am going to be using Ultimate Tag Warrior for tagging purposes as I think it offers the best features of any of the tagging plugins I have found.
I see many merit’s in folksonomy over taxonomy. Mainly it will allow for easier navigation of the site and will cut down on clutter in the categories. I have so many of them! Also the UTW plugin will allow for browsing the archives by multiple tags which you can not do with categories. All in all, I think it will be a better system.
Several other blogs have switched over to this convention, namely Binary Bonsai. I draw alot of inspiration from Michael and would like to thank him for k2 and every idea I have ever had spawned from his work. Things will be hectic around here in the coming days. Just bear with me.
On another related note. I have decided not to build my own theme up from scratch but instead use k2 and it’s builtin scheming capabilities. It will severely cut down on the work I have to do(thanks again michael)! Still looking for a graphic artist though.

This one comes from Chad from the Moleskinerie Google Group. His brother says …
The toaster is the worst invention of man. It’s soul purpose is to burn things. It take something someone worked very hard to make, and burns it. It rapes it with fire, until you can’t eat it, unless you put something on it. Butter, jam, whatever you desire. Of course, these things will spoil unless you keep them refridgerated. So now you need running electricity and a fridge, plus a spredding utensil. If you had just eaten the bread and been happy, you could have saved time, money, and self-esteem.
