BoingBoing vs BluesNews

Recently, a link to my Candy Addict site was posted on BoingBoing and on BluesNews within about 12 hours of each other. Surprisingly (to me anyway), BluesNews has sent more traffic than BoingBoing. This could partially be because I have had links form BoingBoing before so some people did not click because they already had seen Candy Addict. Here are the stats as of 3/7/2006:
BoingBoing: 472
BluesNews: 681

My new site: FunLinksDaily.com

Well, I decided to start ANOTHER site up – it’s called Fun Links Daily. It’s pretty much what the name says: each day there will be one post that is a list of fun links. Some are weird, some funny, some are interesting, some are cool, but all will be fun. It’s a quick, easy way to find something to do/read/watch/listen to if you happen to be online and bored. Check it out.

Free Music: Thao Nguyen

I’ve had her song “Tallymarks” for a while now (got it via 3hive.com) and really like it. I visited her website and saw there are two other tracks to download so I grabbed those. On a hunch, I used the same URL format of the other free downloads and tried to download the other tracks the same way. To my surprise, it works! The whole album in 192kbps format is available. Get it while the getting’s good. If you like it, buy it!
