I'll put a hex on you
- 6 May 07, 02:56 PM
Look, it鈥檚 the Sunday of a Bank Holiday weekend and I鈥檓 in work. Short straw? Upset the boss? No mates? Nope, none of those. It鈥檚 just that once every six weeks or so it comes round to being my go in the office and it just so happens that it鈥檚 my turn today, Bank Holiday or not.
So, I get a bit of extra time to gorge myself on Manchester Blogs (extra large latte to the right of me wine gums to the left 鈥 he I am stuck in the middle with you).
So what鈥檚 caught my eye? 鈥檚 . 鈥淢odern Life is a blog about the web - development, design, search engines and statistics.鈥
Right. So what鈥檚 up first?
鈥溾 - 鈥淔or a fortunate few, working with hexadecimal colours comes naturally - my experience stems from working with colour palettes whilst programming in BASIC some 15 years ago,鈥 says Stuart.
OK perhaps you have to be interested in this kind of stuff. What about another posting then?
鈥溾 鈥 鈥溾ere are five examples which raise my typographical hackles.鈥 Um. Actually, this is one of those subjects that does cause more trouble than it鈥檚 worth. I have been accused on more than one occasion of colluding with the Devil when using Comic Sans as my font of choice. (It鈥檚 OK, I鈥檓 a born-again Verdana now). And going by the amount of comments this particular posting has attracted, it would appear that it鈥檚 only a matter of time before talking fonts replaces discussions about the off-side rule in the drinking houses of Manchester.
Finally (I鈥檓 running out of latte here), one post on Modern Life that all Bloggers should read is Stuart鈥檚 鈥溾 - 鈥淐reating a blog is easy - but alas, building a readership is somewhat more difficult. So where do nascent bloggers most commonly go wrong?鈥 he asks. Some great content follows with more tips and comment from dozens of readers. Stuart says, 鈥淚f you have a decent amount of content in your archives, then new readers will be more inclined to stick around and subscribe to your feeds for future material.鈥
I鈥檓 going to top up the coffee now and have a dig around the archives.
