Realisation

OK, so I’ve thought of something. I have Google adsense. For those of you that don’t know what that is, it means I get paid for having ads on websites I have. So far, the last time checked, I hadn’t earned any money at all. And what I’ve realised is I think I need to make more blogs to get some cash. The more I make, the more it’ll get linked to from Google, which means I’ll get more readers, which means hopefully people well click on ads they see, which means I get my money.
Since I haven’t had any yet, I don’t know how much I’ll get. Probably not even that much. As well as people not actually liking ads, and ignoring then, there’s also something else that’s going to stop me getting monies. Adblockers. So people might not even see my ads if they have adblockers.
So if you have then enabled, disable them on this page. For me. Every little helps. Even though it’ll probably be just a few pence
On a related note, I’ll also accept donations via Paypal 😀 The email for that is micolps3@gmail.com. (except for Andrea)
Anyway I just wanted to get they off my chest. I started this blog at about 4pm and it’s now 5.45. Work has been very busy.
So see you all next time

Freaky Friday

So I’ve just found on the android market the official blogger app. I wish i’d known about it sooner. It would have made mobile blogging easier. Not like I would have anyway.
Anyways, what I wanted to tell you about today is a slight but annoying issue I had yesterday.
So for a while I’ve been wanting to exchange my fat ps3 for a slim one. So obviously I backed up all my data from the old one onto an external hard drive, got the slim one, restored my data. And it restored the game saves. But not all of them. Actually most. Except the one I wanted. Deus Ex. It didn’t even restore the games. None of them. As far as I can tell, it’s restored all of my game saves except Deus Ex. That’s all it’s restored.
Whether it’s because it’s on a different console I don’t know. But I really wanted my Deus Ex save. I got really far on it. I do have a game save on there personal cloud that Sony give to PSN users, but it’s several days old. It’s really annoying that that’s the only game save that didn’t back up.
So yeah, that’s what I wanted to rant about. It’s 7.30 am on Saturday morning, I’m at work and I didn’t get much sleep last night, as usual. I never do when I have to be up early for work. That’s annoying.
On a side note, I’ve decided to stop buying Ribena because it has a lot of sugar in it. So I’ve started buying Oasis instead. That has less sugar. And hopefully gets rid of my thirst better. I find all too many drinks don’t make me much less thirsty, they just make my throat wet (that’s what she said).
This is actually turning out to be quite a long blog. At least on my mobile. Obviously on a widescreen monitor it’ll be shorter. But it’s still quite long for one of blogs. I’m just talking crap aren’t i. I’ll shut up
