Mr Altruistic

Looks like the sites popularity exceeded itself this month. For the past 12 days vilesilencer has been in bandwidth oblivion having exceeded its “unlimited” bandwidth limit. Enjoy the photography whilst it remains on the site, because if the bandwidth for next month (which has been increased) is exceeded then I will be trimming the fat from this Hog… mmmm bacon. So get in early and get your side of ham and crackling with lashes of apple sauce.

Also a casualty of the site being down is my PR dropping with Google updating right on the week the site went down. I’ve also lost all rankings for keywords I was sitting top 10 in. The silencer doesn’t give up though. The rocker will be back on those ranks in force! So look out competition

Master of multi-tasking? Well this just has to be told.

What do u do when you see a guy with a bottle wrapped in brown paper in one hand, a spray of urine flying off to his left hand side, all whilst strolling at pace up the street?

Anyone that can consume and commute whilst controlling their trouser snake’s yellow venom hands-free is a master of multi-tasking in my opinion. Well, naturally I was intrigued by the gentleman, so intrigued in fact that I chose to move to the other side of the street and kept enough distance between us that if he actually noticed me i could do the harold holt straight up the street to escape! hehehe… Why do we have these freaks in our society?

Apologies for going MIA this month… I have a new job, and that means less time to play. Which is another reason I’m making this a quick update. I’m tired and the case of cougar cans isn’t inspiring me, though the bourbon is getting me rather tanked. No photography, search engines or bot updates this week, perhaps over the weekend I can get around to updating those lists.

Big Brother Australia is back with season 4 of the popular series set to kick off any week now. BB4 forums and chatrooms are buzzing in anticipation of what the much-hyped secret is going to be. In preparation for the coming series return, the webmaster at iServ and myself have revived the immensely popular #Big Brother Chatroom, and have also added a Big Brother Forum this year to catch up on all the gossip and insider info from the show. It’s going to be very big, so I suggest people get into the rooms now, while there are still hosting positions available and make your presence felt. Also register on the forum early, and get to know everyone there in advance. I’ve stuck 2 easy to get to links to the BB4 Forum and the BB4 chatroom on the left under the SEO resources menu. Big Brother is watching you

I’ve added a new information line above the user agent list count, where I will inform of what digital photography has been added to the site. Since I don’t add photography with each update, that line will only appear when I do add a new gallery of digital photos. This time around I have added the shots taken from the trip to Melbourne. Funnily enough, only 2 of the shots that are added are actually from Melbourne. The weather was so dreadful that most of the shots that were taken weren’t up to the usual standard so I scrapped them. The other shots are taken on the trip back to Sydney via the South Coast, at such places as Eden where we spent a night, and Bermagui where we had a couple of brilliant days of fishing (remember the puffer fling Dave? hahaha, I’m still cracking up), as well as Lakes Entrance and Bega.

Other updates? Yup, there’s more peeps. I’ve been spending a fair bit of time at my favourite Webdesign and SEO forum, and shortly I will be including a link to their Feature Site. This will be an ongoing thing, where the Web World Geek community bands together to improve a lucky persons site design and rankings. It’s a novel idea and so I’ve decided to jump on the bandwagon and support it with a free link from my site. Stay tuned, it will more than likely take place next update.

Lastly, I’ve added 3 more random banners. That makes a set of 11. Hit refresh a couple of times and you’ll see what the hell I’m talking about. 2 of the banners are shots taken from Lakes Entrance which I have converted, and the other one is from Bermagui, though it doesn’t do the fantastic fishing area justice.

Melbourne photos added to the digital photography gallery.

Slowly recharging the batteries after the recent marriage of 2 great friends from Chicago.

Congratulations Andrew & Dana!

So, what did we all get up to on the week they were here?

On Thursday we had the wedding rehearsal at Vaucluse House, before scooting off to Wildfire Restaurant at the Overseas Passenger Terminal overlooking the Sydney Harbour and Opera House.

Then on Friday we jumped on the Silver Spirit and cruised around the harbour sinking drinks, engaging in mirth and taking many many photos, before retiring to the Cargo Bar for more drinks, and more mirth. We bumped into old friends from High School on their Hens night, which was fun. Great to catch up with them. Back to the Sheraton after that after a bout of taxi rage, and it was all goodskies for the wedding at Vaucluse House the next day. The wedding was pretty fantastic. Perhaps the best I’ve been to or witnessed, and I’ve been at tonnes. The speeches were both heartfelt and humourous, and the guests were exceptionally friendly.

I’ve created a new subdomain info.vilesilencer.com that I will be using to house tutorials, PC articles, plus webdesign and SEO resources. It’s brand spanking new (googlebot has already crawled it though - love that), so there is only one tutorial currently available the CSS rollover tutorial which I previously had on the old redline tripod site in a javascript mouseover version. I’ve also taken the search engine and webmaster resources offline for the time being as certain myths have been dispelled and I’m not entirely encouraged by the format in which I presented the material.

I will re-introduced both of these, as well as adding the long-ago compiled directories list and user agent list (which will both remain updated on here for the time being) on the new subdomain when I get the time. Which could take a while. Either way the links will remain on this site, they will just send you to the subdomain pages. The pure CSS format of that site is more pleasing to the eye.
