#Personal, #Site Update

I started this website for a couple of reasons: the first reason was to get better at web design. I wanted to make a site that was professional and cool and looked great. I don't think I really hit any of those marks, but I learned a LOT along the way.

#Personal, #Site Update

Well, this has become less of a blog of 'everything interesting on the internet' and more of a personal blog, but oh well.
Fixed a few things with the site today; nothing major, but cleaned up some code; really just wanted an excuse to mess with stuff. You won't see any difference.
Looking for a place for my own to live; would be really cool to live on my own...
why am I blogging? It's 3 AM. I'll finish this up tomorrow...

#Site Update, #Street Team

Well, now that I have some interest in my own website again, I've decided to ask a small favor of you, my readers - and no, it's not money (but I'll take that as well ;)) I need some loyal readers to help spread the confusingly good word - make a confusingly good street team, if you will. Right now, all I have is a simple little logo for you to place on your blog, website, myspace, forum signature - anywhere. It's just copy and paste. So, check after the break if you're interested.

#Personal, #Site, #Site Update, #Vigor

Okay so I've been thinking a lot lately about this stupid website. I really liked writing here, and I think it's got some neat ajax stuff, to which I'd like to continue to develop. But my zest for cool stuff online has greatly diminished. Where are all the cool videos? The funny pictures? The deals online?

No wait, scratch that last one. I am still very much a consumer whore.

So I have decided to go ahead and re-think the focus of this blog, especially since it never really had focus to begin with. This is now a deal blog. I know there are millions out there, and I read some of the forums. But I still want to write, so, so be it.

I may still post little cool things I see online, but primarily you can count on me to bring you awesome sales on dvd's, games, computer stuff, anything that catches my eye. Let's begin. Click the permalink and continue reading, because I know that picture of the bootleg cut of Almost Famous has got you wondering...

#100, #Milestone, #Site Update

Well well well! It seems this little blog has reached a milestone of sorts; this here is the 100th article to be posted! During the past few months we've discussed topics ranging from DVD Sales to Bomb Scares. There have been two new editions to the writers (knit_vicious and w00t!), and dare I say it, I think we all three have grown a bit in the field of professional journalism. There have been numerous video posts, beginning with daily random videos (which simply were way too many), and now weekly random videos (which are often hard to get around to posting). There have been a few sporadic reviews thrown in, as well as some heavily commented on opinion pieces. We've had The List: cheap video games, cheap anime, and cheap dvd's. There was every SNES game ever, an amazing (albeit creepy) gigantic manequin girl pulled by about 40 people with ropes, spiders on drugs, Craig vs Wild, and Chad Vader. And the article just before this one about building your very own arcade machine.

So, although I realize 100 posts isn't really that high of a number when you are writing a blog (especially one with so much filler), I also am glad we have a fair amount of content, most of which I am quite proud of. But what lies ahead for ConfusinglyGood? Some ideas we've been tossing around include a newsletter detailing posts each week, a "send us articles" link, and a site redesign. I've got some ideas and as soon as I get some time, motivation, and inspiration, I'll begin.

So, anyone have any favorite articles? Anything you'd like to see more of? How about less? Be sure to leave a comment right below!
