Okay, we sold Wagg.It for $2000 on SitePoint today, which is good since our $800 server fees were due today and I just had enough money to pay my rent. We will be okay for next month. We are just hopin’ that SiteHoppin’ takes off a little bit more but so far, so good for our efforts.

Our next goal is to turn Zedomax.com into a blog about nothing like John Chow’s blog. Why? Well, he’s makin’ like 25 grand a month! Well, we make like $800 a month. We got a long way to go but with your help spreading the word about SiteHoppin, that could happen. duh~

We tried too hard with not enough money or food. I’ve lost about 10 pounds last couple months just trying to cope with myself losing my job and whatever. At least, now I am free, totally free to be my own boss and take the time to take my girlfriend’s brother’s dog Za out for a jog everyday.

So, what the WTF?

Nothin’ This is a blog about nothing but stupid technology we have to deal with everyday. If you don’t visit Zedomax.com everyday, you will die the next day!!! Hahaha….LOL…

U know what I realize over the years?  Well, this is coming from the man who experienced it.  Nobody cares about you, especially how you are going to make a living everyday.

So how to beat this shi+?  Simply, beat your own life up everyday.  That’s right, you beat yourself, and you will be successful.   Beat yourself, and you will be SUCCESSFUL!

Yes, you are the only enemy of yourself and you are the only competitor of yourself.  If you don’t know that, read Guy Kawasaki’s book on “How to drive your competition crazy”.

Remember I did a review of Blogrush and Entrecard right before Entrecard started taking off?

Well, here’s why BlogRush will die and SiteHoppin will exponentially grow! (Sorry John, we are just using your site as comparison, no pun intended)

1. SiteHoppin is like a dog. Well, here’s how I got that analogy. I don’t own a dog but I do love dogs and my parents have dogs. During the last few days I was taking care of Za, my girlfriend’s brother’s dog, I have come to realize that SiteHoppin is like a dog who takes a leak here and there so other dogs can find it and mark their territory.

What the heck does that have to do with exponentially growing? Well, dogs like to mark their territories everywhere they go. They will only “mark” their spots in certain location they sense the “smell”. I don’t know how they do it. But it’s how dogs interact or communicate with each other. Basically, every time you take a leak, you are leaving a trace for the other dogs.

Well, SiteHoppin is no different. Every time you visit a site on SiteHoppin, you are marking your territory on someone’s site. Those site owners find out through site stats and get to know SiteHoppin and start using it to promote their sites. You can see some of the stats here to see what I mean here on the new SiteHoppin blog.

So, what the heck is the point of the story? Nothing. We are thanking everyone who has signed up for SiteHoppin’ and we promise the first-comers will get massive traffic in return.

As you can see in the above graph, we should be able to eclipse BlogRush very soon if our traffic keeps rising. In just 7 days since our public beta launch, we have gained at least 50% as much as traffic as Blogrush. (not that that’s a real accomplishment…) Join the new phenomenon, go try out SiteHoppin as it’s being developed LIVE! (It’s like watching a cooking show on TV, kinda like IronChef where you get to “see” the process)

Well, we will stop selling our new wiki technology here and start blogging more about other CES 2008 stuff.

Here’s the fun part:

Check out the pageviews of SiteHoppin vs. Zedomax.com. SiteHoppin gets almost 3 times more pageviews! I guess that’s probably from all the people that are SiteHoppin’… :p

Lol…here’s a DIY that will help you get away from the computer. Well, after this post, I am going to the beach baby! (great thing the Pacific Ocean is only 5 minutes away from my apartment) When we come back from the beach walking my girlfriend’s brother’s dog (that we have been dog-sitting for couple days), I will post some videos of the Pacific Ocean so don’t get jealous. :p Peace OUT!

Plan specific activities away from your computer
If you don’t plan specific activities for whilst you’re away from the computer, then you are much more likely to fall into the trap of aimless surfing or playing Solitaire when you have spare time to kill or just need a break from the work.

This is the video of a real 125mW Viper Green Laser from Dragon Lasers. You know, we have an advertisement for Dragon Lasers… well… they didn’t even PAY for advertisement but I just decided to give them free advertisement because their lasers are so cool! Frank from DragonLasers sent me this 125mW Viper Green Laser and I have been playing with it for couple months. (Yes, these things do go like for 3 miles in any direction!) I have still yet to figure out real purpose or use for these green lasers but they are way cooler than your ordinary red laser. (Yes, you will be the MAN when you own this $350 green laser.)

Well, here’s what I got from Frank from DragonLasers:

Having the ad on your website has been great, can’t thank you enough for that. I have a Hulk portable laser (www.dragonlasers.com/hulk) to send you when you get round to finish the review on the 125mW Viper. If you are flat out and too busy to finish the Viper review, I should still be able to send you the Hulk. You’ve helped us out a lot so I have a fair bit of flexibility in sending it to you.

Well, I don’t want to be selfish and keep these lasers for myself. We are giving away a Hulk Laser from DragonLasers for the Top Commentator this month. Whoever is at the top of the commentator list at the end of the month will get this laser! (Let’s say that Frank should really ship this to our Top Commentator.)

If you are interested, just keep on commenting on Zedomax without all that Viagra or porno stuff…and you should be on your way to getting your first green laser…. WhoEVER is the TOP commentator at the end of this month, you WILL get the Hulk Laser from DragonLasers. And I tell you, that IS great….

P.S. I have been so busy trying to sell these pop-up mattresses and memory foam mattresses… So if you can help me do this… well.. I will send you anything!

I don’t know about you but everytime I buy a big shoe rack for me and my girlfriend, it breaks down after a month. But here’s a great way to make a shoe rack for any of your walls. I will be moving in 3 days to a new apartment so this is very handy and jit (just in time!) baby!

We bought poplar boards from the trims aisle of Home Depot. We chose boards 1/2 inch thick and 6 inches wide (1/2×6x3) for wide lower shelves and 1/2 inch thick and 3 inches wide (1/2×3x3) narrow top shelves. We cut the wood to size (in our case 22 inches) with the handsaw in the store.

We also bought large and small L-brackets to attach the wood to our walls and appropriate hardware: short screws to attach the brackets to the wood planks (.5 inch), longer screws and plastic drywall anchors to attach the brackets to the walls. I think we used 1.5-inch #6

Check out the cool keyboard necklace! This reminds me of the time I made a custom letter necklace for my girlfriend at the Coca Cola store in Las Vegas.

Keyboard Key chokers! I popped all the keys off of two keyboards, washed and sanitized them in a little bit of bleach and detergent, then filed down the backs of the keys and drilled holes in the top. The choker bands were made of crochet thread.

Right now I’m also working on a Pirate one, including a painted “Jolly Roger” key. I think these are so neat and unique, so I wanted to share!
