The Weather Network

The Weather Network claims that 80% of the population checks the weather forecast, so they ask why not put the forecast on your site. Best of all it’s free! They have several options for shapes and sizes, but basically, you put a little bit of code in your page, and voila. To hook up, go to

Moving

Exams are now done…boy does that feel good. I walked out knowing I should have studied more, but I knew that walking in. Now I wait to see what my marks are. I’m sure they’ll be fine - I’m not worried about failing a class - but I had wanted to improve my GPA from where it was last semester.

I think for now this will basically be a little hobby, something I can play around with and see what happens. I’ll keep looking in to options, but maybe a blog is more what I’m after. I’ll have to post a link if I go to that. One of the biggest reasons for moving may be that I can get people’s feedback without having to give out my email, and I think you can run Adsense off your Blog too, and a little pocket change is always nice.

So I decided to try out this blog thing. We’ll see how it goes, and maybe I’ll end up using the two together.
