Get your Blogging Zoom on!
One of my favorite quotes from The Office comes from Andy Bernard when he’s talking to Michael Scott about his Wednesday night plans: “Gonna go home. Get my beer on. Get my “Lost” on.“ I sort of have my own set of events that I do on a given day or night: “Gonna go home. [...] Continue →
200th BloggingZoom Article Posted
Today I have reached a milestone that I wanted to share with my readers as well as the other users of BloggingZoom. It’s hard to believe but the article you are reading right now is the 200th article I have submitted to BloggingZoom. I began submitting my articles to BloggingZoom on November 1, 2007. What [...] Continue →
Technorati Is Ridiculous
I can’t say that I’ve ever been a huge fan of Technorati. When I first started blogging it seemed that a lot of bloggers were completely consumed with how well they were doing with their Technorati ranking and authority (a measure of how many other blogs link to you). I didn’t know much so I [...] Continue →
Blogging Zoom hacked
One of my favorite sites out there is Blogging Zoom and a pretty horrid act was inflicted upon it today as some deadbeat hackers took it down and threw up some Apache server splash page. Not only that, but a good friend of mine Vic, who is behind Blogging Zoom along with another guy named [...] Continue →
A Mike Life hits 2000 comments and 4000 spamments
Yesterday, on his way to setting a new monthly record for comments, The Trousered Ape posted one that meant a lot more to this site than he probably realized. It was comment #2000 and was just a big milestone here at A Mike Life that I wanted to recognize. Once thing that I find important [...] Continue →
Top Commentors for December
So last November I started a series of blogs that will highlight the top commentors for each month on A Mike Life. The first month of this series had only two guys with over 20 comments each, everyone else had around 10 or less. December, despite the holidays, really cranked out some serious commenting. Maybe [...] Continue →
David Airey Gets Hacked and Hijacked
Graphic Designer and blogger David Airey decided to take a month long vacation last month. That was a mistake he’ll probably be regretting for a while. I’ve been reading David’s fantastic blog for quite a while now and have always been impressed with his fantastic sense of style. He lives in Scotland and is pretty [...] Continue →
The BloggingZoom Backlink Participants 21-30
I want to thank everyone who’s been participating in the Easiest Way Ever To Get A Backlink From A PR4 Website! promotion I’ve been running for a while now. As of today the post has 47 Zooms which puts it tied for the highest Zoomed article ever. The strange thing is that a lot of [...] Continue →
Top Commentors for November
Something I’ll be doing on a monthly basis from now on is highlighting the top commentors for the previous month and trying to share a little link love with those that have blogs. For November, Cap’n Scwartz really went nuts on his opinions, basically averaging 1.3 comments a day, which is something I think EVERYONE [...] Continue →
The MOST important WordPress plugin
By Mike on December 4, 2007
My blog has too many plugins to count. I don’t even think I even realize what they all do and forgot why I even installed some of them in the first place. But there are many very useful ones for sure, like the CommentLuv plugin I installed just over a week ago. Or the Comment [...] Continue →
