FiddyP

I have a notebook that I write ideas down on that I carry around with me for when ideas pop into my head and it’s got quite a few for FiddyP. One of the first things I wanted was a unique design, I was going to make my own but I scored some commercial projects recently and so I couldn’t put the time in to do it myself. I now have a designer working on the project and I can’t wait to see the results!

Recently, I stumbled on a blog called “The gospel according to Rhys” (maker of the Technorati tag generator). I really liked the style of the blog and his writing. He’s got a good sense of humour and his posts about his trip to Europe were hilarious! I noticed that he had advertising available on his site and jumped in to get a whole years worth!

I’ve also asked him if he could bring some of his humour over to here now and again, he’s going to think about something to post about and maybe he can do a guest post here in the near future. If you get a chance, go and visit his site and take a look around. He’s Wales’ premier blogger!

Another fine blogger who I have approached about posting here is someone you might know due to her excellent talent for short stories (check out two amazing 55 word shorts here). AntiBarbie is her pen name, she has had a lively following on her blog at Antibarbie.net and I think having a monthly short story here would be a great feature!

I’d like to get some more guest posts here when the new theme goes live and start participating in some more photography memes. I’d love to get some pictures that are as high quality as Opal’s Flower and Bee shots at Vegan Momma and I’d like to improve CommentLuv even more so it can act as a plugin on the sidebar showing the last posts of recent commenters. Like the blogrush widget but just for people that comment on the blog, it will also get it’s own options page to allow people the choice of what is used for the text of the plugin in the comment and below it.

For my posts, I have had a wonderful time with a couple of AJAX books recently and I’ve come up with some super easy tutorials that can run for a few weeks for each stage and gradually take you from ‘hello world’ to a working program to include on your blog.

More contests will come this way too, I’m trying to source some good prizes for the future. I prefer prizes to cash. What sort of prizes would you like to see here? Technology or something else like vouchers for online stores…?

Time to open the comments… what would you like to see here?
