Some Blog Changes and Updates

By woobie

Google did an update, and due to the noise that other bloggers made over the issue, I decided to research some ways to improve reader experience in evilwoobie.com

No-Follow Free - You can view the details of my new comment policy here.

Emoticons – The last post made me miss my gaming days, and part of why I kept playing then was because of the ability of expressing my feelings through unique emoticons. I am mulling over going back to gaming, but as a friend pointed out, “how about your blogs?” So, no, I won’t be going back anymore.

But I’m bringing the fun here! Check out the new comment and post emoticons on evilwoobie.com. You can create these by placing the following words in between colons, i.e. : word :

Edit: Oh here’s my favorite…… e4 :e4: and gg :gg:

heh :heh:

In fact, I’m feeling generous enough to giveaway some prizes for First 10 commenters who will use these emoticons. Just choose a post from my recent and most popular ones and leave a comment using these emoticons. Only relevant comments will be considered.

Prizes – 100 entrecard credits each (if an Entrecarder), or if you’re not with Entrecard yet, a link on my blogroll.

Try it out!

[...] I should have just stayed home. These trips are raising my blood pressure. I wish people could have emoticons over their heads when traveling. That way they?d be able to tell if someone just wants you to [...]

:e10: Had to try it out too. I like these emoticons–a bit of variety from the usual ones. I see you’re using wordpress…wonder if they’d work on typepad too? I’m off to find out!
