Personal

This morning, I got an email from my hosting provider. In the email, they said that the earthquake in Taiwan has distrupted entire Asia network when two undersea cables (SeaMeWe 3 and APCN2) are damaged.

That’s why the internet connection is so slow right now. I even can’t get access to some websites because of this problem. I’m sure entire Malaysia and Asia face the same problem. And here is the news from Rediff, Earthquake off Taiwan hits cables, BPOs unhurt.

An earthquake off Taiwan on Tuesday night, measuring 6.7-7.1 on the Richter scale, knocked out Internet links to India for 20-25 minutes and affected Reliance Communications’ FLAG and VSNL’s SEA-ME-WE-3 under-sea cable systems, even as telecommunications around Asia was severely disrupted, with Internet services slowing and financial transactions being hindered, particularly in the currency market.

Cypher: Because of this problem, I can’t update my site as usual. It takes so long to open my website and some other sites from here. When the connection back to normal, I will post back with the updates. [tags]earthquake, internet, connection, taiwan, news[/tags]

I submitted my entry about Tips on how to name your AdSense Channels to Ezine Articles last month and recently I got an email from them that the article I sent has successfully approved on their website.

I decided to submit the article because I think it is worth to share with others especially the adsense publishers on how they can name their adsense channels for better tracking in the reports. The format that I use to rename my channels is really easy. Here is the format that I use:

[site/theme]_[file]-[location]-[ads type]

Explanations for the format above has been explained in my post. For more details, read the entry here, Tips on how to name your AdSense Channels.

The first article that I submitted to Ezine Articles is about How to Advertise Your Blog. It is mainly focus about how you can use free services such as Ezine Articles to promote your blog. Read the entry here and start advertise and promote your blog. 🙂

Btw I have a question to ask. Do you mind if your articles got plagiarised?[tags]adsense, channel, articles, promote, blog[/tags]
