B|Logs – a blog directory for German blogs

There are blog directories for all countries and languages, but I never found one for Germany. Now I have found one: It’s the B|Logs directory!

(Taken from “Click here for the English version of the text above”):

“This directory offers an overview of weblogs maintained by German authors – nothing less, nothing more. The majority of the blogs are kept in German but there are some blogs which are mainly written in English.“

I searched 1 1/2 years for such a directory! :-O

No more popups!

No more popups!

Yep, they are gone! Some visitors of my blog using MSIE or Firefox complained about popups that appeared when reading my blog! (But I never saw them in Opera =) ).

I have finally found out why they appeard, the link exchange service Link2Blogs had created them! So, I will miss the 147 visitors I received through their service NOT! I prefer that my visitors have an undisturbed visit of my blog!

Sorry that it took that long!

Let’s see how this Google Analytics work!

Been using Google Analytics for 2 1/2 days now on my blog! So let’s see how good it works!

Here, everybody can see that most of my visitors came from Germany and the main rest from USA. You can even see from which city. I framed the visit from the Skype Team located in Talinn, Estonia!

Also seen can be the sources people came from. Next to the unknown which have the most, Google follows by sources inside my blog. Then visitory coming from the beta blogs and the tiny 5.13% came from Technorati!

On the next pocture you can see the Source Conversion (taken from Google themselves:

“Which referral sources drive the highest quality traffic? This report compares referral sources with respect to number of visits, pageviews per visit, conversion rates, and average visit value.“

On this screenshot we see the language set. Most set to English, followed by German, Russian and Slovakian!

The last one for this time is the connection speed.
As you can see, the dialup connections are dying out! broadband internet wins this battle! 🙂

Jamba’s Crazy Frog

Here is, the crazy frog from Jamba (yes, “Jamba”, eventhough the international pages call it “Jamster”, it came from Germany, called “Jamba”). This Crazy Frog “dingding” the Axel F. theme even has been on the UK charts for weeks!

Notice: won’t work in Opera since it’s broken on the source – wasted blog!

But watch it, it’s nice 🙂

Technorati index problem

See my full range of Technorati experience. Sometimes it happens that the Technorati service is down and sometimes they write it, sometimes they don’t.

At least this time the reply came faster:

“Hello Joerg,

I’ve taken a look at the incorrect permalink to your July post. Unfortunately, there was a very brief outage during the time of
your post that associated incorrect links to the indexed posts (it occurred with other blogs as well). All has been fixed since then
and newer posts should be indexed successfully. Unfortunately however, the posts indexed incorrectly are not immediately
correctable. One thing that can be done for the post to be indexed correctly would be to republish the post with a newer creation
date. Our system will recognize it as a new post and index it successfully.

Please accept my apologies for the inconvenience. Do not hesitate to contact us if you have any other questions. Thank you for
using Technorati!

Best Regards,
Janice Myint
Customer Support Specialist
Technorati“

Guess I will keep you updated! Holy crap, I really have bad luck lately with Technorati and bugs that always seem to hit me! 🙁

Anyway, Technorati is great, I just wish they would be more announcing of their problems and replying to emails faster. And yet, the best support has still Blogger and del.icio.us! 🙂

As you can see, I have received today for the first time the Google Earth newsletter. Eventhough the first issue was in July 2006 it never arrived to me (and not in my spam filter, either!), I wonder why!

Fave me on Technorati!

After adding the ability to bookmark my posts on del.icio.us, you can also now add my blog and even single posts to your Technorati Favorites!

So enjoy this new feature of my blog! Also, “Links to this post” are now called “Links2Post”, sounds cooler, doesn’t it!? 🙂
