Since it’s inception, Evilmunky.com has generally been based around one theme and hasn’t veered much from that, apart from general layout stuff. Well, whilst at work today, I was checking the site and something struck me. With a site as dark in colour as evilmunky.com was, it was kinda hard to look at whilst in the work place. You can tell straight away that it was a non work related site, and whilst that doesn’t bother me, I figured it might mean some users couldn’t benefit from the wonders within, whilst in their place of work.
I set of looking for a nice n light well made wordpress theme, which I found I stumbled across iNove. Now, I almost didn’t use it for the simple reason I dislike stuff starting with ‘i’ but it looked good, seemed customisable where necessary and was hassle free.
That was an hour ago, and here we are, new theme, all working with a few minor tweaks in what I hope will prove to be a more user / work place friendly look.
So I am sure most of you who use the web are well aware that most websites some form of advertising on them. And why not? If someone has gone to the effort of making a webstie to inform or amuse you, then it shouldn’t be a huge problem to view the ad’s on their site and maybe help them recoup some of the costs of running the site. Maybe you even click on some of the ads if they are good contextual ones? I know I do.
I just saw this following image – which is a result of voters thoughts on different types of ads, and I have to say, it pretty much stacks with my thoughts.
It has been 4 days since my last proper content post!
So I thought I would give a brief explanation of why it has been a few days between what is normally a daily updated blog. Basically I have been piss busy and full of a cold! Work has been a bit hectic, with meetings off site meaning I spend half a day travelling, Virus outbreak today meaning my whole day is trashed to deal with a Zero day virus. Unfortunately we use Sophos anti virus, which I don’t believe is the best product out there and whilst it behaved reasonably OK, cleaning this virus up was becoming a bit of a bitch. Bloody Russian Crime Syndicates!
On top of all of this I have had a stinking head cold that has meant I have no energy by the time I am home to browse the web, collect pictures or other funny shit and present them to you.
And to cap it all, I am away from Friday morning until Sunday night with limited access to the net!
