Randomness for 5/18

 

I got an email yesterday that Google Analytics had “upgraded.” I next to never log in, but I took a look. So far all I’ve seen is the new map feature. Awesome! I love that I can pretty much just zoom in on one person. :) Countries are color-coded as to how many visitors have been to your site and you can click on a continent, and then a country, and then a state or whatever, etc., until you can see how many visitors from each city/area. Pretty sweet. :)



I upgraded to WordPress 2.2 yesterday, too. So far no problems or issues… No real opinions on anything one way or another, either.

I got “hacked” the other day through an insecure WordPress plugin. I found out when I got emailed that my disk quota I’d allotted for this site was full. The wannabe hackers uploaded many, many, many video files and thought I would be so stupid as to not notice. Of course, it’s all gone now. Don’t know if I’ll be updating the plugin to the supposedly secure version or not yet…

Monday night I spilled 100 1/8″ eyelets all over the bathroom floor. That was fun. Found 96 of them then, though. Found one today. My Mother’s Day cards were late, but they were dang cute, I used the eyelets to put in ribbons and bows and such:

Mother's Day cards

I’m tired. Made a candle delivery last night 30 miles from here around 8.30pm then dropped E back here with Steve and walked over to my neighbor/friend’s house for this “spa party” thing though several people had already left. Ended up staying until 1am then walked home and realized halfway across the highway how dangerous that could have been. :P

Gonna enter this lovely critter in an ugly dog contest with a local radio station:

Oreo Oreo Oreo

Ummm… I’m bored. :P

    Hellooooo! Do you see me in Google Analytics? ;-)

    Nice. I am trying the new G Analytics now, and it is indeed better than before. I still have to try the map feature, though from your screenshot it looks very nice. :)

    About WP 2.2, one of the big changes you might see regularly is that posts you are editing or working on will now be shown in a new “preview” window, after you click a preview link, compared to before when an iframe was used to show the preview on the same page.

    Could you share the name of the plugin? 0_0

    So, 4 eyelets still MIA? 0_0 Also, will you really enter that dog into an “ugly dog” contest?

    Google Analytics sounds good. I’ll have to sign up when I get a chance!

    Wow, I’ve *never* heard of that Analytics tool before; I’m checking it out now…I like my simple stats..but the map feature looks cool. I’m curious about the detail. Can’t wait to try it on my site.

    Let me be honest, I’m visiting because I’m watching CSI NY, and I remember that “e-lebrity” you were talking about a while ago ;) heh.. that’s my randomness.

    Jared - yup, party animal! Spent too much money lol

    Sidney - yes! ;-)

    Bes - it was WordTube. Getting rid of it only means that two videos on the site aren’t available anymore. But I’ll probably try the new version when I get this project we’re working on done. I’d like to post it…

    Bes, Victoria, Amanda - I still don’t know all the features of Analytics, or what everything means, but I did add some more sites to it yesterday, so we’ll see how it goes. At least I know when my stalkers visit, haha. Yes, I said “stalkersssss” lol

    Amanda - hahahahahahahahahahaha! :P

    Oh, and Bes - yes, four eyelets were still missing though I found another two later hehe. And yes, I did enter the ugly dog in the contest. Though I think that it should be termed rather than an ugly dog contest a “give us your photos, sign over copyright and then we’ll do a random drawing” contest.
