I’m a happy little vegimite, as happy as can be… (If your not an aussie or a kiwi this probably means nothing to you!)

Anyway I just heard about Google Blog Search, and of course I had to go and have a look, and what did I search for? “Work Online” of course, and I’m the first result.

WooHoo

See here, I amazed. I probably won’t be on top for long, but I’m happy at the moment.

Ok so I’m lacking motivation to update this site, thats probably because everyone here has been down with the flu, and I’m also very busy at the moment.

I currently owe you all 2 backdated weekly reports and 1 monthly report, plus various other posts I’ve been planning to make.

The reports take a bit of time to put together, and I’m planning on changing them slightly to give a better indication of where my spending is going and where the income is being generated.

I’m planning on doing a mega update on the site tomorrow, in the meantime I have a problem I’m trying to figure out, perhaps you can help?

Up until now I have been accounting for income in the week it was earned, ie If I made $5.00 from Google Adsense this week, I put it down as income from this week, even though I haven’t received it.

Now this works pretty well, and is fairly accurate, but recently I have been doing some consulting online, this has spanned multiple weeks and while the work is done, and the price agreed. I haven’t received payment in the week the work was done.

This weeks weekly report is delayed by a few days, I’m extremely busy trying to fix a database issue for someone. I’ll explain more when I have finished the job because it is an interesting story and highlights another important consideration:

“When buying virtual property, always ensure you have the ability to cancel the deal and/or hold a sledge hammer over the other parties head if things should go wrong”

When I first set this up, I made a choice not to include the title in the permalink because I prefer short titles.

Following a post and some of the comments made on the post I have decided to change the permalinks to include the title, I figured I should do it now rather than later. I seriously doubt anyone has had linked directly to an article at this point.

If you have, sorry for changing things under you.

So, I’ve been thinking, I’ve got this nice new shiny server sitting here not doing a hell of a lot. I have full control of it and can do what I like with it.

I know there are a lot of bloghosts, especially free ones, out there, but it seems to me that a lot of them offer very limited setups.
