Sexism?

*Please note the tongue-in-cheek look I have as I write this, it’s just a joke, m’kay?*

Angela caught a glimpse of the TreeBlog a couple of days ago and decided to take a picture of our Christmas tree and send it in, (she’s proud of our little tree, what can I say?) submitted by both of us. It soon appeared right there on the blog, with the words “from Angela and Mike”, where both our names were links to our blogs. That’s fairly cool, or so I thought.

Then, last night upon our arrival home after seeing Tuna Christmas, (which was quite good!) she logs into her computer and starts telling me about all the traffic being generated to her blog from the TreeBlog, and asks me how much traffic they sent my site. At that time, and still as of this morning, not a single visitor has hit this blog from there! I’m assuming that this is because mostly females would be checking out the tree blog to begin with, and they are obviously not interested in reading sites by “icky boys”. (Do you have a better explanation?)

And here I thought we were supposed to be the sexist ones, shame on you women of the blogging world!

*Yes I do realize that saying only women would be at the TreeBlog is just as sexist, read the first line again, m’kay?*

The drop in traffic on weekends is less in the…

    Remember last week when I told you I was going to check out PC Inspector File Recovery? Well this morning, I was able to succesfully recover files off a damaged floppy disk for a co-worker using it. That is what I call useful! Upon further reflection though, I notice that it won’t let me recover…

  • Screensavers link

    I was checking out my site server logs over my lunch hour today. (It’s snowing outside, what else am I going to do while sitting at my desk? *L*) I was puzzled by the sudden increase of people checking out Gnomedex pictures, so I started checking referers and found the Show Notes for Friday’s Screensavers…

  • So Scoble IS a Corporate shill afterall!

    In response to my previous comment, Scoble had this to say: “Of course I am, if I am posting stuff about NEC (and anytime I write about NEC you should take my writings as such). But, yesterday, I was not writing about NEC’s tablet per se. Just the Tablet experience.” Subtle difference, but I’m not…

  • Lost day

    I had big plans for getting caught up at work today. I knew there were some other big projects on the horizon, and two new people starting today, but I figured to have most of the day to run year-end and month-end reports, clean up some of the extraneous equipment laying around my office, and…

  • New Gmail features

    I’ve been away from the PC most of the weekend and just catching up now, so you may know about the new Gmail features already, but I just want to say, I’ve been waiting and waiting for the ability to export my contacts, so I’m one happy dude now that it’s here. Tags: Gmail Follow…
