Sharoogle vs Google

Many people integrate Google' Search into their homepages. Google's search engine is (more) powerful and easy to integrate. Because of that, I decided to give that service a try and installed it last week on this blog. Top of it, one can earn some cents, if an visitor finds an sponsored link more temptating than the regular search results.

Integrating Feedburner's Blog Stats into Lifetype.

Feedburner has some nice statistic tools for a blog.  However, they have not an example ready, how to integrate the tracking code into the lifetype blogging plattform.

To give them them a try,I had to integrate the stats into my current template set. Its easier as I first thought.

Here are the instructions:

CSS and Coding: Blog Templates

I  am currently cutomizing my blog layout.

2 columns, or maybe three? Dark in color or bright?  Colorful? Or some extraordinary like the CLI Template... http://themes.wordpress.net/testrun/

Well, the problem is, that I cannot decide, which blog layout I like most, so maybe I'll neeed a hint! Start Commenting!

Spammy Comments locked out.

The bayesian filter rocks. Really.

Up to date, there where no false positive, and allmost all spam has been successfullly marked as.

But as deleting all the spam taking more and more time, and as I do not want to turn off comments in my blog I made the following decission:

Effective immediatly, comments flagged by my anti-spam-filters are deleted automatically.

Using Google Search

I just changed the template, that you can use google search for the blog and the world. The google search is simply more powerful, so this should be a really benefit for you.

Please let me know, if you like the feature or not, by a comment or using the neat Karma feature ;-)
