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?*

    Don’t you just hate Mondays that drag on forever? Those days when you don’t really have anything to do so the day just drags and drags. How about days where you do have a bunch of work to do and yet, inexplicably, the day drags anyway! I just looked up from a bunch of reports…

    So I took a look at Robert Scoble’s entries from last night and he says some interesting things. Of course he sounds exactly like you would expect a guy in NEC Sales to sound, which makes you wonder if he’s being honest or just a corporate shill, I’ve met Robert and I think he’s probably…

    I need a weekend. Well no, actually, I need to go back to being on vacation. That was fun, this is not. By the way, the big project for the normally slow summer around here has me sitting on the task force to develop an ethics policy for the organization. While I won’t be writing…

    Progress that I’ve made on the $0 budget intranet so far this week: Installed SlimFTP for Uniserver plugin. Ran into that same old start bug that the 3.2 version of Uniserver had, however I discovered that just starting the FTP server from the .exe instead of the batch file works like a charm. Installed WebCalendar….

    This week is shaping up to be as good as last week. Our Positni filters redirected hundreds of copies of the Sober virus into our quarantine over the weekend. I’m glad they all got detected and redirected but all of those emails in the quarantine means it takes me longer to go through and make…
