Zementa - Something i didn’t expect
Image via Wikipediasince i’ve started using Zementa, i’ve been receiveing huge amounts of Spam comments. I’m pretty certain that’s because i’m linking to more sites, rather than it being anything to do with Zementa itself, but it is a bit worrying. Still, none of them go live on the site, so not to worry about, but considering i’m only really using this site as something to do to get some practice with sites on the web at the moment, it’s seems a waste of spammer’s time. Thought that, it would seem, is the whole point.
This is pretty cool…

This guy is a bit odd
Ok, this Apple Fanboy is a freak. Most are. He just bought a new Apple MacBook, and is unboxing it on YouTube (why do people do unboxings and video them? I mean really, why?), and seems to get rather sexual with his new toy.Not only does he video it though, he then, presumably watches it, and still thinks it’s appropriate to post it on youtube. There is enough porn on the internet already my friend. I got this from the excellent Valleywag.
The World Cycling Championships…
Source: Wikipedia…have started in Manchester this week. Great Britain have a very strong team, and have already won one gold medal - with Bradley Wiggins winning the mens 4km pursuit. I always like watching track cycling, and with Chris Hoy and Victoria Pendleton to come, we should win a few more medals in the coming days. Nice!
Zementa - a blogger’s friend?
Source: WikipediaSo, am testing Zemanta, which is a tool that will supposedly help me write more info in my blogs, by supplying links to relevant things. Thus meaning that i have to write less, but have morte interesting things to write about. Whether this will work remains to be seen. You have to write 300 characters, which i have just done. Links that are being shown are linked above. So if i write about Football or golf, it should give me a link, and then i can choose which ones i want to see highlighted in my text - in this blog i am including them all, so you can see which ones are good. You just install it into Firefox, and then it pops up when you next write a blog.
Some of the suggestions are fairly random, but this is a beta, so give them time. Links below and the graphic all come from the tool. I kinda like it, you just may have to be careful what links it gives you for a while.
