Christmas pudding smothered in crude oil !

Well thankfully the distraction of Christmas is out of the way again for another year, and it´s time to get cracking again.

Just before Christmas we had our fourth webcast in which we were taught about traffic generation. during the webcast Alex told us all that in a two week period we had to try and drive as much new traffic to our blogs as we could, and the person with the most traffic would win $1000 !

I have, in this time spent countless hours posting to other blogs ( Alex refers to it as oilrig hopping ) I have also gotten my blog listed on other web directories. The most enjoyable thing though, that I´ve been doing is making videos.

With the many programmes I have on my pc, I am hoping that a few of the videos I´ve made will cut the mustard. It is quite daunting when you look at the competition and quality of the work that your up against.

I don´t know how many hours the rest of the students are putting in to their respective blogs, but my daughter bought me a Christmas present this year that really made me laugh. As she handed me the parcel she told me it was a set of cutlery that would suit my present needs.

As I opened my present I was greeted to the sight of a beautiful silver fork and knife combined into one

She said that as I spent nearly every waking minute glued to my computer at least now I don´t have to put my mouse down to eat, don´t you just love your own kids =o)

With regards to the traffic I am managing to generate, at the moment it´s pretty low, but I hope that when the festive season comes to an end and things get back to normality the work I´ve put in will start to show some benefits.
