RE: Some Blogs by Blue Dalek

Blue Dalek asked me to critique his work. There is more than one blog under this name. I will try to comment as much as possible about several of his blogs.

Meanwhile why don't you go to his profile? You can give an opinion yourself in the comment section here.

There are four blogs listed in his profile. They are:

Doctor Whoniverse
UNIT ONLINE
Ye Old Curiousity Shop
Doctor Whoniverse

These sites download fast. This is great! Too long a time to download and you lose visitors.

 They are also imaginatively designed. People like pretty sites so long as they do not take a long time to download.

There is one glaring problem. The URLs do not match the titles as a general rule. Take for instance Doctor Whoniverse. The URL is:http://bluedalekcrack.blogspot.com/. An example of a URL that can be used for this website could be Doctor Whoinverse.blogspot.com or Dr. Whoinverse.blogspot.com  Then there UNIT ONLINE is with the URl: http://fightingaliens.blogspot.com/. How about the URL: http://unitonline.blogspot.com? Get the idea?This makes it easier for the surfer to find the site if URL and title of site match somewhat.. Also makes it easier to remember this particular location. This method of URL and blog naming links both together and makes an impression on the surfers. This way there is a better chance of them coming back again and again.


It is a simple matter to change the URls of these sites. No need to delete and change the whole site. Just change the URL.

Doctor Whoniverse is unfinished. Nice start but unfinished is libel to scare off visitors. So unfinished is a big no, no. Put something up if just an introduction. This is much better than just unfinished.


Also ask for comments in the comment section. Encourage some interaction from the public. This will bring them back.


http://www.wikihow.com/Improve-Search-Engine-Ranking. The afore mentioned link may help you with Search Engine-Ranking. Never pay for this. You can do it yourself.


You might search on the Internet on how to encourage public interaction with your websites. Here is what I found:
Put in a rating system (can be found in the gadgets section for blogger)
Add some videos
Add puzzle's and games.
Encourage people to make comments in the comment section. 
The above are just suggestions on how to enrich your site.


Blue Dalek is off to a good start with his blogs. The blogs just need a little fine tuning and some polishing.


All websites and blogs should add new material from time to time, too. This keeps people coming back and adds interest. 


Remember you can also monetize your site if you so wish. Google Adsense and Amazon are available through blogger. Guess what they really work! (Just a suggestion)

RE: New Video

I was looking for funny videos. I found this advertisement for Temptations. It is supposed to be a cat asking for treats by a specific name.
Evidentially Temptations is a company brand name for cat treats

I really do not know how funny it is.  However I did  find it clever. What do you think? Comments are welcome. Feel free to include your idea of funny cat videos in your comments if possible.

       

I do not know if the cat is trained to do this or if the filming is just opportunistic. Some people claim that a cat can be trained.

Here are some links  about training house cats:

How to Keep Cats Off of Tabletops -- powered by eHow.com

http://www.our-happy-cat.com/cat-training.html
http://www.cat-love-story.com/cat-training.html

 There is even some things for sell through Amazon that claim that you can teach a cat tricks.

 I do not know abut this Cat Training in Ten Minutes. Sounds too good to be true. Yet maybe not. Who knows. If you try it out please let me know through the comment section. I am very interested to know what people think about this.












Hey you cannot beat the price on this. I wonder if it really does work. Teaching Your cat Simple tricks seems very reasonable in price.

Once again you are invited to tell us what you think of this product.










Got any suggestions or comments about this subject? Let us know. Also feel free to submit videos and pictures.


Look forward to hearing from you all.

RE: Time Lords, Jelly Babies and Scarves

http://timelordsjellybabiesandscarves.blogspot.com/

The above is a link to a blogspot that the creator asked me to critique. This particualar entry is dedicated to that critique.

At first, the site Time Lords, Jelly Babies and Scarves seems slow to download.However, once started it really downloads relatively fast. Comment about download time is welcome here in the comment section.

The site is quite colorful. The background is black and the lettering is in Technicolor. There are also numerous graphics. For the number of graphics the site downloads quite fast. The graphics are on topic and give color and interest to the site. It would be nice if there was a link to where to order this material. Perhaps there is and I just missed it.

There is quite a bit of new information about Dr. Who products. The graphics illustrate the products. The site also gives in depth description about each new product also. It would be nice to have a link to where these products are sold. Perhaps they are sold on Amazon.

The new theme music for Dr. Who can be played or not. Just click on the graphic or embedded player included on the site. This is a good idea to give people a choice on whether or not to play the music. Some people get quite annoyed at the incessant playing of music on a site.

Included are several videos. I found one to be particularly entertaining, "Dr. Who Ringers." However this particular video can be a bit randy in some spots. May not be appropriate for the very young.Nothing too raunchy though.

Try out this site and let us know what you think of it. Comments about Time Lords, Jelly Babies and Scarves would be appreciated in the comment section of this blog entry. The creator of the site: Time Lords, Jelly Babies and Scarves wants input as to how to improve the site. So please go to the site then come back here and put your comments in the comment section of this entry.

RE: A Question of Faith

I wonder if a lot of the so called followers of God are out of touch. The reason I say this is because the three great monotheistic religions are being questioned by an ever growing number of their people. There are accusations of hypocrisy, cruelty, etc.

Sometimes people may wonder if the religious leaders especially those that are prominent in their religion really believe in their faith or even practice their faith.  http://news.yahoo.com/video/tech-15749651/vampire-author-quits-the-church-21362209

RE: About Videos.

Not all blog space providers are alike. I am having some difficulty posting videos on my Blog space with Yahoo. The videos do not show up right. In addition, I am also having some difficulty adjusting the font.

Let see how the video for the new sci-fi series Haven works here. I took it from Hulu.com. I really enjoy this particular show.



By the way, I have been asked to review the web site or blog.

RE: Critique of Life, The Universe and Combom

Well I asked if anyone out there would like for me to critique their web site. Guess what someone took a bite out of WebByte. Someone asked me to do a critique of their blog. The name of the blog is Life, The Universe and Combom.  


First let me explain who or what is the subject of the web site critiqued here.  I am not going to spend a lot of time explaining who or what Dr. Who is. Suffice to say, Dr. Who is a series of Sci-Fi programs about a creature named or who calls himself Dr. Who. I say creature because Dr. Who is not human but humanoid. This explanation is just to let the public know what the subject of the critiqued site is. 


Want a more in depth description of the program Dr. Who? Then go to the Wikipedia page That describes the program.


The site downloads very fast. This is good because there is a good chance of maintaining interest of the public.
Studies indicate that if a web site takes more than five seconds to load down then the public is likely to surf to another site.

The photos, graphics, and video are especially crisp. That's really nice since this writer has an eye sight problem.

The site has a white background that is tastefully done with a few appropriate graphics.

There is a lot of information on  Life, The Universe and Combom. In addition, it is in blog format. So a revisit may be in order or maybe revisits in the plural sense. Guess what! there is actually a jigsaw puzzle on this site. It has some of the cast members of one rendition of Dr. Who. This adds to the entertainment factor. There is also included some interesting information about Dr. Who that may not be found anywhere else on the net. So in conclusion, this site is a must stop for all Dr. Who fans. People interested in classical TV sci-fi might drop by too. Then if the surfer just wants to be entertained definitely visit.


http://lifetheuniverseandcombom.blogspot.com/

**********************

PS I noticed that the jigsaw puzzle changes every day on this blog. Great way to encourage revisits. 

* If anyone else would like me to critique their site please feel free to send a request through the comment section.  Please leave comments here as to what you think of the site that's mentioned in this critique.


Here is the Fourth Series of Dr. Who. Just for fun I included a keychain for the die hard Dr. Who fan. This keychain talks.  I also included a Doctor Who Lost In Time collection of Rare Epsodes.These are the only two videos that I included here.. the others are pretty expensive.  Just click on the graphic and orders can be completed. 



       























   

 

RE: Great Site for Dr. Who Fans and more.

Attention all Doctor Who Fans! Here is a great site on blogger. Tardis News Room http://tardisnewsroom.blogspot.com/?expref=next-blog. Beautifully done. Very artistic and quite entertaining.

By the way, if you like this site will critic your site. Just put a mention here in the comment section. Give WebByte your URL and we will drop by for a look.

All comments are made without bias. No X rated sites or hate sites submits please.

Remember all a comments screened first then added if deemed appropriate.

By the way here are some electronic readers from Amazon. Notice how the prices are coming down. Would like to hear from people who already have electronic readers. What are the readers like? How are they on the eyes? Are they really better than paper books? If so why? Any other relevant comment.

RE: Early TV in The USA

Here is an example of an early TV show in the USA. It is a classic. This particular show comes from the Sit Com: The Goldbergs.

I am familiar with I Love Lucy. However I never heard of The Goldbergs until tonight.

To me it is not laugh out loud funny. But it is relatively entertaining.

The plot line is about a lady who thinks she can interpret the dreams of others because her daughter is studying to be a psychologist.

Gertrude Berg is the creator and acts as the main character, Molly Goldberg in this sit com.

Remember this is a sample of the humor of the 1950's in the United States.

So take a look and enjoy.



Amazon has a DVD of The Goldbergs. I do not know how good it is through or if it contains all the series episodes.    

RE: Cougars? What S'Up?

Used to be that cougar was a four legged cat found in the Americas. Now it has a whole different meaning. Older women prowling and being involved with younger, sometimes a lot younger men. Well as long as the men are of age and the women are cognizant what of it? There does seem to be more popular acceptance of this type of relationship.

Now there is even get togethers involved in this type of relationship. Watch the video below about a special meeting held for cougars and younger men in search of soul mates

Below is a video that I ran into on MSN Today. Van Der Sloot the young man who allegedly killed a young woman in Peru wants to make a deal. That is understandable. His father is no longer here so now Van Der Sloot must use other means to help himself. Look at the video and see for yourself what is up with Van der  Sloot. (Article continues after video)

Visit msnbc.com for breaking news, world news, and news about the economy.
Article continues after this ad from our sponsors.

Interesting enough, Van der Sloots mother now claims that he is mentally ill. What does she mean by mentally ill? Is he paranoid schizophrenic, bipolar or what. I am no psychiatrist or expert in the field of psychology but could it be that This young man is just a plain old fashion social-path or psychopath?  In any case, mother says he needs psychiatric help. Well if he is a social-path, forget the psychiatric help. It will not help according to psychiatrists. In any case, is it becoming apparent that Van der Sloot needs to be considered a clear and apparent danger to society.


The following is a video of what Van der Sloot's mother has to say. Perhaps his mother should talk with Menninger's of the USA to see if it is a good idea to give this young man psychiatric help or if it is better to just lock him up for life or at least to keep him under close supervision.


It is difficult when this occurs in the family and its a family blood relation that is a sociopath, indeed one's own child, there are other things to consider. Such as:

• Should this person be released onto society?
•  Is psychiatric help really going to help or just create a bigger problem?
•  Is it better just to keep this person comfortabably locked up in a secure situation where they cannot harm another person or people?

In any case, I for one am delighted to not be Van der Sloot's mom. I do not condemn her however. From what I have read and been told sociopaths are very difficult to deal with.

 This site, Profile of the Sociopath, summarizes what a sociopath is. This particular site really scares me. 

Van der Sloot's mom should take heart and courage in the knowledge that she is not alone. This can happen in any family.

RE: BP Saga Continues

The British Petroleum debacle continues. The CEO is before the USA congressional investigation committee. He looks very contrite.

Apparently BP officials somewhere in the company thought it was worth the risk to save a few million dollars or so. I bet those parts they skimped on look pretty good right now.

According to the history of British Petroleum on FundingUniverse.com British Petroleum endeavors to have open communication between the different levels within the company. Apparently someone is not aware of part of the cooperate mission because on Fox news today the CEO repeatedly said he did know the answers to some pretty rudimentary questions.

http://www.fundinguniverse.com/company-histories/The-British-Petroleum-Company-plc-Company-History.html,



I wonder how all of this is going to impact the world. There is more involved here than Britain and USA interests.

Why doesn't BP swallow its pride and ask the other oil companies and USA government to help it. There seems to be quite a bit of problem with BP trying to make a go on its own.

Personally I sympathize with BP investors and employees but the people along the coast and the rest of the world is suffering and going to suffer more.

BP officials took a gamble, a gamble with chips and money that was not theirs to use or gamble. They gambled the environment, the welfare and health of people not just along the coastline but the entire world, the animals and their investors money. Now the piper will be paid regardless of whether BP bites the bullet or not.
Unfortunately it the price will cost everyone.

There's a book about the history British Petroleum below. Next to it is another one that is titled Don't Go Near The Water. Both should make for interesting reading.

I also noticed that Amazon has a sweat shirt or long sleeve shirt that says save the Gulf Coast. There is also a short sleeve shirt available. It is worded rather strongly too. The shirts are none to flattering for British Petroleum.

The pictures of the items are below. Click on them and you can buy them from Amazon.

          

                  










Personally I reserve judgement on BP. Why because it is easy for me to see how hypnotic profit can be. After all, who would have thought this would happen? Certainly not the British or the Europeans. Certainly not the Americans that are supposed to do the inspections.

Here is what British Petroleum disaster spokesman says that BP is going to do: http://bp.concerts.com/gom/MakingitRight.htm

RE: Getting Carried Away

Everyone wants their say or day of fame. Sometimes people get carried away. 

Anger makes people do things in a thoughtless way. Young people may have too much power. Below is an idea of what happens when teeny boppers get too much power.


Cell phones, computers, etc unsupervised use by children puts too much power in the young's reach. Then someone gets hurt. Below is a video of what is happening with more and more frequency. Now three young people's lives are ruined by to much power and thoughtless use of it.


Maybe all of mankind should think before acting. These electronic devices are useful but should be used with wisdom.

RE: The New World Order Video

Below is a must see video. Past this video around. Go to the host site and get disk of this video.

This is a very scary video whether it is true or not. Kind of makes one wonder what is going on here in the world today.

Who are these globalists? What do Bill Gates, Ted Turner, Rockefeller and few other others have in common?

What is the purpose of the United Nations? Is this part of the hidden agenda?

Why were Princess Diana, Martin Luther King, President Jack Kennedy really assassinated? Watch the below video for one opinion.

How does President Obama really figure in all of this? Is he just a puppet or more prominent than that?

What is the New World Order really? What is its agenda? How does Ted Turner thank a lot of the world's problems can be solved? How does this tie into the New World Order?

Watch the video below and form your own opinion.

RE: An Experiment With U-Tube

This is a short little ditty that I picked up from U-Tube. It is about a dog and his master. A really ridiculous short from Purina Pet food. You got to see this to believe it. I hope this works for you. It is a video from U-Tube. The name of this video series is Man's Best Friend.


Enjoy and let me know what you think of it.



You know I may cancel my cable TV. It is getting too expensive anyway This way I can really get the TV and other programs I want.

      

RE: New ISP & Income Tax in The Ole USA

Well I am using Road Runner light. I will let you know how that works out. So far so good. I just got it yesterday. There is a little trouble with IE but Opera and Google Chrome work just fine.

I am still having trouble getting Yahoo Instant Messenger to download. I have contacted the help department.

Finally got Gimp to download. Gimp is a graphics software that is comparable to more expensive software. Gimp is freeware.

Gimp has free tutorials on the internet. I am planning to try those out also.

Below is a publisher comparable to MS Desktop Publisher.The name is PagePlus X3 Publisher Professional. It is a lot cheaper though. CorelDraw is a pay for graphics creation software. There are two examples of the pay for software you can use.

I just threw in the Discovery Kids Digital Photo Pendant for fun. It would make a nice Mother's Day Pendant. A picture of the family could go in the photo part. It is also nice for birthdays, anniversaries or just to give a nice gift. Better yet get the make your own charms for a charm bracelet. Then you can make a charm bracelet and add the pictures of memorable events. Both are nice gift ideas.

About Taxes

By the way, are you late in getting your taxes made? Well I got mine in early for this year. I am talking about the USA by the way. I paid someone to do mine. It is worth it to do that. I should learn how to make out taxes though. Turbo Tax is popular software that is out. I put a link to the Amazon software because if you have not made out your taxes yet you can download this software and get it made out. 

Your Income Tax 2010 may help with some information on how to make out your taxes for the USA and states. There is also Small Business Taxes 2010. Both books are reasonably priced can help with your taxes.

  By the way, there are some states where you do not have to pay state income tax. Must be nice, huh?

        

Snooze You Lose

The .gif on the right is just about how I feel. I am going to have to start getting a lot more sleep. I think I am now getting addicted to the computer.


By the way, this gif is by: Artist: Elayne Sheppard 
http://www.BowerBird.homestead.com. Pretty nice, isn't it. You can find a lot of these gifs for free on the net. I even found a way to make my own gifs. I might be tempted to teach an interested audience.

Is there such a thing as computer addiction? Well let's do some research on it and find out. Look for future post on the subject of computer addiction.

    
So far, I have not researched yet on the matter of computer addiction. I am too addicted to writing this journal. Oh well. I will keep on trying.

The postings for computer addiction will appear right here. I will also put up the links that I find about computer addition here. There should be a lot of information about this.    

I just read what is to me one of the scariest stories ever. This one insurance company is targeting AIDS patients. Apparently their care is too expensive. This is the link to what I read:   http://news.yahoo.com/s/nm/20100317/us_nm/us_insurers. It is the story of one young man that lost his insurance policy because he developed AIDS.

I understand the insurance companies viewpoint. They want to lower the costs of their services. If they have to pay out a lot for services rendered then there goes the profits. Here is an idea. Why not start investing in cures or methods of arresting these major costly medical problems? Get rid of the problem that way. Plus the company can invest in the cures, methods, etc. and make a tidy profit for share holders. How does that sound?

Something Great!

Normally the term used on this site is cool. IToons however qualifies as great. It has a free download section that is worth visiting. There sometimes so much stuff that this author lacks the time to download it.

Admittedly sometimes IToons lacks a lot of freebies. Other times, though, it is overloaded. Today is just one of those days.

Why not try it out just for the fun of it? There are a lot of free videos, music etc.

My goal is to think of ways to make my sites more interesting. WebSpeak Ezine will publish any GP web content for singers, bands, computer game creators, movie makers to publish their work. There is form mail on the Contact Page. HTML is accepted. Plus a request for a form to submit attachments is available through this form mail.

Eventually my goal is to start web broadcasting. It would be live TV, movies, etc. It looks like everything will eventually migrate to the web.

Sometimes it is difficult to know what to do. However there is some success on my part in making money on the internet.

There are also ways to make money at home. Research on this subject area will be reported soon in WebSpeak Ezine.


There are some free e-cards in the e-card section of WebSpeak Ezine. Be sure and drop by there to take a look. Sound may be added to these e-cards.

RE: Another Sunday And Day Light Savings Time.

Did everyone in USA remember to reset their clock. I didn't. That made me an hour late for everything. Oh well. I never did see the reasoning behind this. It is such a bother. Why not just start the day sooner and then later. This resetting of the clock for daylight savings time makes no sense to me.

My leg is slowly healing. My appreciation for any positive prayers.

I have been wondering if there is a limit to how many free blogs we can put on blogger. Does anyone out there know? I guess I should look it up.

My experiment with Google Adsense is working out pretty good. Take a look at the ads. I am thinking of adding a meditation link to one of my sites. It will come with words, music etc.

Hey if you would like to publish music and other appropriate web site material go to http://webspeak.bravehost.com. Make it for GP audience please as this is a family site. WebSpeak Ezine is a good place to try out your product and also to have a leader into your own site.

RE: What I Am Doing Now on March 02, 2010

Most of my day is just one big goof off time. My primary occupation today is getting trash ready for pick up tomorrow and reading the news in Yahoo.com.

In the article titled:Haiti judge not ready to release 2 US missionaries, the information is that there are two American citizens who say they are missionaries. They are in Haiti because they made an unauthorized attempt to take some children out of the country after its recent earthquake. Taking children like this sounds kind. but it is really very foolish because this is something that could give pedophiles ideas.

Then my reading continues with  AP IMPACT: Drug gangs taking over US public lands. Apparently the drug cartels of Mexico and South America think they have a right to take any land or whatever they want.  This is going to get very nasty before it gets any better.
