Here is my blog: http://gattsu25.blogspot.com/

Only posted a few times on it. Mainly used it as a place to store my GAF writing challenge short stories.

Thinking about returning to writing. I already wrote a short story last week that was just for the fun of it and may be putting that up on the blog, soon.

Well I can't imagine anyone would really visit, but this is the blog of me and my development team! We're working on a small retro DOS style platformer called 'Theres No Place Like Homeless' - it'll be completed in the next few months and will be free to download for PC and the iPhone App Store.

It's a new blog so not much progress yet (made the switch from Wordpress to Blogspot) but I also update the blog with indie games that catch my eye. Me and the programmer are the only ones posting updates at the moment!

I don't know if it counts, but that is my forum.. it has blogs built in since it's VBulletin 4.0

I run a few other forums as well, but that's my biggest and the one I post on all the time (I'm "riotous" there.)

Extraguy.com

I love being a tiny fish in a gigantic ocean.

Someone hire me... please...

That feature is awesome, but you are going to kill someone with that first challenge D:

Well this week I get to live the dream!

Since I've never seen the movie, gonna try and goad some friends into doing it with me.

Umm, more cleavage. You really don't have anything there(on the site, not your chest...that's fine )...I enjoyed the song and the clock was intriguing as it's 4 minutes behind the actual time. I change my computer's clock to your time and your blog clock goes back 4 minutes more...strange.

Hey dudes, my blog:

http://stuckinchurch.wordpress.com

It's about my experiences as an Atheist attending church with my Christian wife. It's doing quite well and has featured in a couple of Christian magazines.

Here's a few of my own favourite posts:

Love me Tender
Children Starve in Africa
Heaven Must be Missing a Husband

Let me know what you think!

Never ever have your webpage play music, it's the easiest way to keep people from visiting.

Cool clock. Find a template that isn't used often, or design one.

Thanks man – do you have your own blog I can check out?

Yep, posted earlier in the thread, but more links can never hurt:

http://www.platypotamus.com - a game blog, but not reviews really. More like me as a designer talking about what inspires me, or the way I think about games, or what I learn from a game, or kind of whatever.

EDIT:

Wordpress is really easy to use, and super customizable, particularly if you install it onto your own hosted server if you've got your own domain name. Lots of great plugins for it too, which you can freely install, usually with a single click (and sometimes with some settings to configure afterwards).

Cool style on the art. I dig it.

I've really been enjoying following your blog. I found its link in here just in time to catch your post saying that you were going to be posting from Vietnam soon, and I thought that sounded interesting so I subscribed. I was right, it's been great.

Now, I could use some feedback from yous guys if yous don't minds. I was looking at my main page today (http://www.platypotamus.com/), and noticed that some of my longer entries (scroll down until you start seeing a lot of minecraft images for the first culprit) really take up a lot of space. I am thinking about making it a habit to hide some of the longer posts behind a "more" link, so that the front page can be used more for seeing what's new, and then interested users would have to click on the longer entries to see them in their entirety. I couldn't decide if that click was more annoying than the long entries jamming up the front page though. What do you guys think?

I much prefer the "more" option. It makes the page feel more even and stuff.

Also especially with some of your blogs, hard to tell when some begin and end due to the page just going.

 

[platypotamus]

Thanks, I'll see what I can do with my theme to separate the particular entries more. I'll mess with that tomorrow.

That's not in English, but I don't need to be able to read it to understand the awesome of the Bender-riding-a-giant-owl bench. Where in the world is that?

Hey, I've actually started up 2 blogs this year:

www.squaredreviews.com :We actually have been doing really well on Tumblr, it's a website where me and some other people review reviews.

and less often updated, but I'll be working on it some more when I have the time:
www.ifiwereatransformer.com is a blog about things I would do if I were a transformer.

 

[thelooseteeth]

Cool style on the art. I dig it.

Thanks! I like the design and color scheme of your blog. Also MINECRAFT!

Dig your art, man.

Cool stuff man! I'll be coming back here to snag some things (when my fucking internet stops sucking).

Flip Flap Wax. Jamming on video games marketing / advertising, hopefully you'll get a few chuckles out of it, too.

The rest of my Flip Flap Shit (DJ, music prod, photo) is here.

Thanks Platypotamus, glad to hear at least someone is reading my stuff. :lol

I really like the cleanness of your blog and the contrasting colours make everything easy to read.

Does anyone know how long it takes for your blog to show up on google or search engines? My blogs been up and running for over a month now and its still not coming up when I search for it on google.

Weird I think ours was up within the first week or so.

Finally installed a stat tracker, and its nice to see some of the terms people find you with.

So far my favorite is "hairy nerd" and "turtles shark rip-off"

my photo blog that's been up for a year now. been busy recently updating the design a little. do you guys thing that top menu that is fixed when scrolling is going to cause problems from a normal users point of view? Or is it just distracting? I myself like it since i dont have to scroll back up or down to change pages.

If you're a wordpress blog, double check the privacy settings in the admin panel, and make sure you're allowing it to be indexed by search engines.

If it's another type of blog, there might be a similar setting, otherwise you may have to create a robots.txt file.

I don't remember how long the original indexing took, but a new entry of mine will be google-able the same day it's posted. My entry from today is the second result when I search for 'red dead redemption greet button'

I'm trying to post more, and I'm sure I will once TV is truly back, but here it is for now:

It's in it's early stages and the layout isn't final but this me and my friends group blog, it's pretty basic and most of the posts are childish insults at each other.

Edit: My posts are under Anthony Stagg, any critisim is welcome (i'm pretty sure all posts are filled with grammer and spelling errors)

 

[Great King Bowser]

Can anyone recommend a clean, elegant wordpress theme for a photography-centric blog? Mine was fine when it was videogame themed but isn't cutting it for travel photography. Too messy and the post width isn't big enough to display photos nicely.

Currently on the road (in Cambodia) but I'll check in whenever I can so any help is appreciated.

 

[Penguin]

Won't spam links, but finally got around to watching Street Fighter: The Movie under our drinking rules, and posted the results on the site.

Was a good time, and can't wait for more.
