faded

Bored with life bored with everything, hearts just not in it...mood swings don't mind me
No though seriously I am bored at loose ends at the moment don't quite know what to do
course it doesn't help being constantly interrupted I can't finish anything because I'm not able to get started on it
That's why I haven't made any Multiply themes lately, I can't think just can not think
most of the time I don't even get five minutes to write a blog up and tutorials no kidding that's why most are worded terribly it's "look at this" or "drive me somewhere" do this for me or do that
If he goes to have a sleep the dog will jump on him or bark, so then I save what I'm half way through and play solitaire because I can't do anything else as soon as I start the nattering starts
he's always done that though I put my hands on the keys and it's "come look at this" he does it so much I just don't bother any more

You know internet folks are my friends, don't have any RL ones don't know any one here in this town and I do get lonely was lonely before of course which is why I started online, I went online to meet people but hardly ever find any that I really get on with the few that I have gotten close too have disappeared on me ...I give up why bother doing anything why bother trying to talk to anyone can't anyway I'm not able to do it ..interrupted all the time
And no one wants to get to know me they are all to busy with their other friends ...I'm boring I know
faded that's me
The new background on here is one of my paintings made into a seamless tile the text is a dark purple on purpose ...it's faded like me

I think I need a make over

Not me well ok I could do with a make over, certainly need a hair cut it's half way down my back... from my head I do not have hair on my back

I mean the blog here it needs a make over course one good thing about it is I can do it all by my widdle self
I did have a 3 column before but for some reason Firefox doesn't let me move modules so went back to a 2 column. no I can't use IE it won't load and I loathe using IE anyway

Now I've seen the snazzy peoples blog pages you know the posh ones that they've paid for those have a light background
I'm thinking of going a lighter colour background here maybe #CEA7D5 (mauve) with a slight pattern effect maybe a little texture not too much just a little with a dark text #42024D
I'm not very good at headers but I think a small purple cow logo would do
Not sure yet
What ever gets done I'll be doing it, not paying for something I can do myself and it will stay like that as well that's why I'm still thinking and not doing don't want to be changing all the time

So I know 24 people read this well ok you get this in a RSS feed, doesn't mean you read possibly because it too difficult to read right
Anyone got any suggestions what would be the best colours for my blog here?
Remember I'm no special blogging entity...... I'm just me
Which leads me to another thing I've got all these snazzy people following me on my twitter and I mean fancy ones top 100 top blogger types following , don't even bother asking me how that happened .... serendipity ??

You Americans are so touchy sometimes

Listen I don't hate you , it's just fun to bag you out, ok you don't know what that word means do you
To "bag out" means make fun of
Like this ...
Americans can't spell it's coloUr and favoUrites you loose the U out of your alphabet or something?

And when exactly are you going to catch up with the rest of the world ?
You are a day behind most of the time and are still on Imperial measurements, what are you still a colony, we were too you know a colony of Britain but went metric 40 plus years ago ...talk about slow

As for being big headed it's a joke isn't it that every one in the world should look to the US for troops we have our own thank you very much, don't need looking after, yes some countries are helping you out well that's as you see it anyway they aren't you know the troops from other countries are in Afghanistan for their own reasons not for you. America is rich enough to help itself
Well ok maybe it can't you fixed up where Hurricane Katrina blew down all those houses yet, built new schools and the like fixed that yet?

Don't be asking for help from any other country for that lot either we have our own places to fix up you know.. our troops are kinda busy in East Timor, Solomon Islands and Sudan
Yes I know yours are as well and I know someone will argue but hey that is what a lot of you Americans do you argue it doesn't matter what it is you "think" you are the best at everything

Oh and shut up about your 911's and your president already, we've heard it we know we don't care.
Do you know who the Prime Minister of Australia or England is?
You don't do you, you're so inward focused that you don't even know what goes on in other countries
Did you know Australia was bombed in WW2 ? (Oh I spose I should Google that for you shouldn't I)
Here you go take a look
You didn't did you that's because we don't go on and on and on about things we say it and that's it.

I could say something about guns as well but hey, you've got those we haven't we don't need them we use nails instead

As for American TV shows the ones with the laugh track, you know why those are there don't you
So everyone knows where to laugh WHY because shows like Seinfeld are NOT funny that's why they have a laugh track and a sign that says for the live audience "laugh here" because a lot of Americans don't have any sense of hUmoUr you just can not see a joke when one is pushed into your face
Yes you can be funny...funny to laugh AT

I know one of you is going to go "blah blah waaa" I know you will what you don't think I've talked to non humorous, stubborn, narrow minded and slow Americans before

How to get more followers on twitter by being yourself

I'm confused
Yes always a little confused that's me, no seriously though I'm confused
I'm not that good or fantastic or terrific I am just ME
Not Oprah or some fancy blog journalist/expert I am just me
I do what I do, what I've always done write what I've always written and for some reason a lot of people like it, no idea why
haven't had a Twitter for very long , only really started using it in the last month or so yet I'm ranking high 91/100 no idea how, no idea why
I just don't get it I've now got 129 followers just today 15 #followfriday mentions
Averaging around 10 - 12 new followers a DAY

Yes I will follow back most Australians because I am one, yes I try to converse with people some I'm not sure of yet and they aren't sure of me we have yet to get to know each other and as I'm a bit shy ..paranoid.. non outgoing I'll just feel them for a bit ... not that way you dirty minded people gee


Who needs a fancy programme? I don't seem to need one anyway you know why because I'm myself
I'm not trying, ok sometimes I can be a little trying with the bad jokes ..what do you call a boomerang that doesn't come back? ..... a stick!

All I am is myself that's all I can be, no persona nothing special just myself and I'm getting followed...
You can do it as well, question is can you ?

Don't try so dang hard, don't try to be funny, don't say you are funny in your bio either most who say they are funny aren't @rove1974 is funny but it doesn't say so in his bio and he's like the most popular comedy/talk show TV show host in Australia
He doesn't try ..he just is and apparently is shorter in RL
Same goes for those who say expert of ____ in their bio, yes and I'm an expert of sarcasm too doesn't mean I put sarcasm expert as there are plenty a lot better at it than I am
Have a little humility please, unless you do happen to have a Twitter rank of 100/100 you aren't a twitter/blogging/internet marketing expert , you are just a drip under pressure (spurt)

So how do you get more followers ?
You be YOU , just like me I'm me like me or hate me (no don't hate me I'm nice really)
Be YOU and you'll get them what's that quote from Field of Dreams "build it and they will come"
That's what you do be yourself !

Course if being yourself is sitting there and waiting for folks to come to you well forget it sorry , don't be scared get out there get tweeting we wont bite, well ok maybe the #zombie league will but not much, you won't get anyone to like you or know you by sitting on your hands, use them instead see the bumpy thing with letters on it the keyboard ...use it, use it to be YOU!
And the followers will flood in, I'm serious ok you don't believe me ok then sit there do nothing except auto follow 1000 a day, see how many follow you back they wont you know if you are a hand sitter

I've talked enough, it's 4.30AM because as per the name of this blog I was fleekin interrupted while writing this, anyway you can take notes you can RT this I don't mind .....

Tired but no longer so confused

Social Network Math

Social networks and groups involve math?
Yes they do
Proportions it all comes down to proportions, the more members you have the more items get posted and I'm talking activity count here by the way.

Works anywhere, you have a group with 100 members only %10 of the members actually do anything they are the active ones the rest are lurkers they don't do anything just read
The ones that post comments or new posts is only %10, that's what (I failed math at school) ...it's 10 which means you need at least 100 in your group, circle what ever you have to get any more than 10 comments per post unless someone double dips, always one who does so we don't count those as 2 only 1
Count by person ok not how many

Count goes up proportionally to the amount you have on your group so say on Twitter you have 500 followers unless you've got some who are very active you'll only get 50 @replies and messages (by person remember)

Or say you have a Blogger or a Wordpress that's got 1000 readers, you'll get 100 replies day
Unfortunately it never does work by post ratio but by day that 100 comment on different posts

Course if you join up on a big fat group on a social network one that's got over 10,000 members ... come on your math is better than mine how many comments and posts is that per day? 1000
Sounds great right get a lot of feedback and activity , no see it backfires
The more active members the more idiots you get you have 1000 active members you'll have at least 10 idiots/flooders and spammers sorry but that's social network math

and this is why here I only ever get 1 or 2 comments as only 20 something people subscribe/read (possibly just subscribe and don't read) this blog
