Slowed Down?

June 27th, 2008 by admin

I have stated before that activity here will slow down for the summer and eventually pick back up as the school year ends.  I am sorry if you have waited a long time but this is something I have no control over. I have started a few other projects that need more of my attention.

Hopefully I will still be able to come on and keep posting and as being a large blog with over a 100 posts, we cannot forget that I will not let the economics blog go down that easily. Posts will still be made from time to time so stay tuned!

Post 100! Goal Reached

June 1st, 2008 by admin

I am so happy to say that our 100 post goal has been reached. And sadly it was done on June 1st. But hey better later than never. I should have been online yesterday to have made a few more posts to reach our goal before the end of the month but I was just so busy yesterday.

But all in all, we have reached our Goal to getting a 100 posts and faster than I ever expected too. Hopefully we will not be too far from our 200th post. And this means our Goal count is reset to 0% and we will work on getting to 200 posts as soon as possible!

90% to Goal

May 29th, 2008 by admin

Well this countdown is almost done. Hopefully in a few days we will have reached our goal of a 100 posts. This is the 90th post and I am happy to have gotten this far in the blog over the past few months that this blog has been up.

I plan to make this blog huge by getting a few hundred posts by the next of the year. Well at first it’ll be good to reach our first goal of a 100 posts. Then our next goal will be 200 posts and hopefully that won’t be too far away either.

50 Indexed Pages

May 21st, 2008 by admin

We almost have 50 pages indexed in Google at the moment and this is only the 64th post. So the index rate is pretty high for this blog. We have only 45 pages now but I am assuming another 5 pages will come by fast since many of my other blogs have been getting a pretty good and high index rates.

And please note again that I am only talking about Google. I have yet to check Yahoo and MSN but I will check those later.

Congratulations to E-Conomics, hopefully we can get a 100 pages indexed soon.

60% to Goal

May 19th, 2008 by admin

We are just a little over half way to getting our goal which is to get to a 100 posts. This is officially the 60th post. I know it says 64 on top but again, it is not correct because I do have a few drafts and Pages actually have post ids as well.

Hopefully i can get to a 100 posts by the end of the month which is just 10 days away. I will need to think of some serious topics in the next few days to reach the goal and hopefully I don’t stumble down anywhere.

Congratulations to E-Conomics, just one more step closer to our goal.

50 Posts Passed

May 18th, 2008 by admin

I just noticed that here at the E-Conomics blog we Passed our 50th post just today. My Post about Variable Costs was the 50th post and since I was so excited to share that knowledge with you, I completely forgot.

This is actually the 54th post. I know it says 58 as the Post Id on top but I have a few drafts that I have yet to finish and I will eventually get to them. And if I do finish then the post ID will probably look out of order but oh well.

Congratulations to the E-conomics blog for the 50th blog post since coming up just over a month ago.

New Theme

May 9th, 2008 by admin

Well it was a headache trying to find a good theme that worked. I found two that gave me errors. Another one wouldn’t let me update the header peacefully, but this one right here is great. It is dark and the calm blue links make it seem peaceful.

The sidebar barely had anything and I had to customize that myself but I am happy I got it done finally. It is a great looking theme and I will keep on customizing to find things that I am missing. In the meantime, enjoy E-Conomics!

New Look Tonight

May 9th, 2008 by admin

Today is Friday and it is pouring outside. It is supposed to rain all day and most of the night so I will be staying home this wonderful Friday. So I have decided to take some time off and get a new theme for this blog. It has been on the default theme for over a month which is something I did not intend to do.

Usually I’d keep the default theme for anything for a week or two and customize it or just get a new look, but due to this month being the last month of college, I had to do other things and this was sidetracked. It can take anywhere from 30 minutes to 2 hours to customize a theme so it isn’t the fastest thing in the world. But the new theme will be up tonight!

Wordpress 2.5.1

April 26th, 2008 by admin

This blog is currently on wordpress 2.5. But yesterday Wordpress announced its latest update of 2.5.1 which fixes a few bugs left over from the development of 2.5. So that just means this blog needs to be upgraded.

I would do it today or tomorrow but unfortunately, other plans have taken its place and the upgrade will not happen until next weekend at earliest. I have to do it in the weekends and I have to do it when I don’t have anything else interfering.

Look forward to some downtime during the update!

Look to Change

April 12th, 2008 by admin

Here in the Economics or E-Conomics blog, over the next few weeks the visual look of the blog will change. This includes but is not limited to the change of the theme from the default wordpress theme to a more customized one.

Another thing that will definitely change is the look of the URL. We will have a more SEO or Search Engine Optimization friendly URL which will make it easier for everyone to find this blog. Other looks may include more plugins and other customizations to the blog.
