I’m very proud to announce that I finally had the time to setup the new custom Ghacks Wordpress theme which you will hopefully like as much as I do. There are still a few minor glitches here and there which I have to take care of but it should be pretty solid as of now.
On Holiday again for the next week
Well I just wanted to let everyone know that I will be on holiday again starting today for the next seven days. I wrote a lot of articles for each day already and try to login at my destination as well but can’t promise that this is going to work out because I really don’t know about Internet access there.
New Competition
It has been a while since the last competition here at Ghacks and I thought it would be a nice idea to start another one. This one is actually pretty simple and everyone will be able to participate. All I’m asking for is that you stumble and review (just a few words are fine) one or two articles here at Ghacks and let me know about it.
I will then draw five users from all stumbles and send them each $10 to their paypal account. Your chance is doubled if you stumble two sites which is the maximum that I accept. The competition ends in exactly one week from now on on the 9th of June. Make sure you use the contact form to send me the following information:
Blog Housekeeping
I read an interesting article written by my friend Everton at this Connected Internet Blog about Blog Housekeeping. He was approached by one of his readers about the subject and Everton decided to change several aspects of his blog because they were either outdated, annoying or no asset for him or his readership.
Since I’m going to introduce a new theme in a couple of days – yeah, consider this the official announcement, hehe – I wanted to make sure that you all feel comfortable with it and that all the “bad” from this theme is not taken over into the new one while all the things that you like are.
Looking for Guest Authors
My friend Everton from Connected Internet told me about his guest author project which is running great and suggested that I should also try and find some guest authors who would like to contribute to my blog regularly. His advices are great most of the time and I have decided to give it another try and look for some guest authors who will write articles for ghacks. Regularly does not mean that you have to post every day but at least once a week would be fine.
Ghacks has been aquired by the RIAA
Money makes the world go round. I tried to remain true to myself for a very long time but after some initial contacts with Mr. Shepherd from the London office and the money they offered I could no longer reject the offer. I’m therefor announcing that the RIAA has purchased my blog, my domain and my expertise which will now be turned in favor of digital rights management against those unwilling customers who just can’t see what is good for them.
Ghacks Local Translations Update
I was looking for translators to translate the content that I’m writing in English to other languages. The response was phenomenal and I could quickly fill spots for Spanish, Italian and German versions of Ghacks. Those sites are online by know and can be accessed by replacing www with the country extension. To be more precise you can access them by clicking the following links: Ghacks ES, Ghacks IT and Ghacks DE.
