The Web Squeeze Firefox Contest A Success

Posted June 19, 2008 @ 9:10 am | 2 comments

Over at The Web Squeeze we held our first contest and it was a great success!

To celebrate the release of the much-awaited 3rd version of Firefox, we decided to have a bit of fun and hide tiny little images (10×10) on our main site. We hid 1 every hour for 10 hours to make sure it was fair to all of our member across the globe. It wasn’t easy but 10 lucky people found them and have won great prizes from the Mozilla store.

You can read all about it here - Firefox Competition WINNERS!.

And if you didn’t win anything, don’t fret! There will be many more contest to come on The Web Squeeze! So… stay tuned ;)

Busy at The Web Squeeze

Posted June 9, 2008 @ 8:23 am | No comments yet

A busy few weeks over at The Web Squeeze and we will be busy still for another few.

The last few weeks had us moving our main site over to WordPress! YAY!!! We finally launched it Saturday night … no wait … I think it was actually Sunday “morning” (at 1AM) and we were all done! :p It’s looking great and we’ve already had a few comments from our articles which we were missing from the previous version of the site. Still a few things need to be done. For example, we want to bridge the comments on the site to the forum so members and guests alike can comment.

My first Apple product

Posted May 27, 2008 @ 7:08 am | 3 comments

After months of looking at them online, I finally had an excuse to buy myself one. It was my husbands’ birthday yesterday. After supper, we went to Future Shop and I told him that I was planning and getting him an iPod Touch. He was tentative at first since he didn’t really know what they were/did apart from playing iTunes and MP3s. When I started describing all the cool little things you could do well … there was a spark in his eyes :p

So now we both have one. It’s an 8GB iPod Touch which is plenty for us.

Digg isn’t spam-proof either

I must admit that the whole “Digg” thing has never really been something I “got”. Only recently when we opened up The Web Squeeze and I started writing again have I started to use it to expose our articles to the people of the internet that don’t know of us yet. It’s a really great tool for that not only for us to get more traffic and readership but also to find other really great articles from sites that I haven’t encountered yet. My blog tag in my delicious account has grown quite a bit in the past few months because of Digg and that’s very cool.
