Quit the day job - living off blogging

Sunday, March 9th, 2008
So, after some coming up on 5 years of blogging, 2699 blog entries or so we just got our first $100 of Adsense revenue (minus Wordpress plugins, domain name registrations, servers, maintenance, bandwidth, electricity etc.). That’s about 4c per post!
 
The good news is that by my calculations we should be pulling in over US$100/month in ad revenue by August 2011, plus or minus the exchange rate. Woohoo! Now if only we could manage to budget to live on the $4/month we’re getting at the moment :)
 

The weekend

Monday, May 28th, 2007

Went to the park with Puggle (It’s been a while since we last went. Longer legs make him faster! He’s harder to catch when I’m encumbered with his discarded scooter too). Fortunately it being freezing cold seems to mean the playground is quite deserted. Beer with Skippy, beer and pool with the Novocastrians, blogging, chats. Bilby is scooting around on the floor now, nowhere is safe.

A new plan

Monday, March 12th, 2007

The new plan is to try to get some blogging done on the bus because using the Palm is easier than whipping out the laptop, even if it does cause my hand to cramp up using the evil graffitti 2 with the tiny diameter palm stylus.
Hopefully this will free up some time at home that I usually use to blog to use for actual creative writing. Hopefully too the blog writing habit can become a writing habit. Not to mention the exercise habit, of course :)

So far, since writing that, no writing or exercise has taken place :)
