Hello Everyone. It’s Sunday and I hope you all enjoy a good time off from work (if you are employed at least – we self-employed people of course work anyways). I did not really expect to ‘activate’ this blog and this domain so early, but it seems like my “application” or lottery ticket for a trip to PubCon over at Shoemoney.com has kicked traffic into high gear. I know it will drop off fast, but at least I want to start writing a little more and maybe gain a few readers here. The main content of this domain will change shortly as it is from a project I stopped before it actually went live due to time constraints. Managing a bunch of content writers requires a little more time and time is something I barely have.

Seems like Digitalpoint.com (at least the forums) went down Saturday and visitors were greeted with a vBulletin database error message. Can you imagine the grief this must cause among the thousands of webmasters who are desperate to rant about the ongoing Google Page Rank update (now that it is happening really). How frustrating must this be especially for newbies who nothing other than Page Rank to value a website. And now they are not able to ask questions because the biggest webmaster forum on the Internet is down. Oh, it just came back up. Look at the screenshot and how many members are online. I don’t think that happens often that you see the visitor numbers over there so low. I refreshed the screen about 5 minutes later and the number had already more than doubled.

What else is going on? Is Sunday the day your week starts or is it the day the week ends for you? Does it make a difference for you at all? For me it is actually Saturday when the week ends and I consider Sunday the first day of my week. That is the day I am most exhausted from the lack of sleep and hard work. I take naps with my son (2.5 years old) on weekends and the Saturday afternoon nap is really helpful. Sunday evenings I am usually really relaxed and full of energy to start working again.
