Did I miss my week?

I never saw it, is it possible that I just didn't visit GarryConn.com during this week? Shame on me!

Or is it possible I was passed up? Shame on Garry!

I think I just missed it...shame on me :-(

Garry,
This is a great idea! I'd love if you'd consider my website BiggerPockets.com Real Estate Investing Community - http://www.biggerpockets.com !

I know you've got a backlog, but I'm willing to wait.

Thanks!

When the time nears... I will be contacting you to get info from you, etc...

from there I will have a date...

As far as an estimate date, you I am going to be turning the ads every Friday.

As far as MyBlogLog Avatar, you are forgetting to fill out the website field in the comment form. I have gone back and added it in. So, next time you comment, just make sure to include your website address in the that box and you should be good to go! :)

Thanks Garry

I wish you had put a start date as to when my 7 days of Spotlight will begin.
You bet I'll be writing a post about this innovative idea of yours.

I am a MyBlogLog member, you can see my avatar in the mainpage. It puzzles me why my avatar does not showed up when I'm commenting......

sure thing, I will monitor them as good as I can whenever I am visiting your site.

Re: Spotlight On Sites

Garry Conn — Mon, 07 May 2007 12:44:05 -0000

I would love for you to do that. It is hard. Because as you know, I am already having some issues with real comments getting held or deleted. I have to moderate the comments that go live, but I also have to moderate the spam comments and try to sift through them for real comments that get missed (the harder task).

Re: Spotlight On Sites

Julian Klewes — Mon, 07 May 2007 11:57:12 -0000

ah great, thanks for the quick heads up. were you able to delete that comment that took you to a malware site?
I noticed you were running some kind of auto-moderation script for the comments: usually those are good against bots, but if dodgy users enter content manually it is useless, too.

I can imagine that monitoring every comment that is being made on your blog is hard, so if you don't mind I will keep you posted about things I spot?

Yours,
jez

Jez,

The list is not full but there is a little wait. No offense taken, you are simply curious and asked a question. What harm is there in that?

I didn't reply to the rest because it had only been a day since my last response and there is a 10 week wait from the point where I stopped. Not to worry, all is good!

Re: Spotlight On Sites

Julian Klewes — Mon, 07 May 2007 07:49:16 -0000

Hey Garry, is the list already full or why don't you reply anymore? Just curious, no offense!

hey Garry, it would be an honor for me and my site to be presented on your blog. It'd really appreciate you looking over my pages, I am quite sure you did that already sometime ago when I wrote those theme ethics articles about sponsored themes. I pingbacked you like crap and finally you left a comment :)

Thanks a lot,
jez

Wow! Great work! It was so much fun learning more about you and your family and the places you have lived. I now know you as a person and that allows friendships to happen easier. Your about me page is an exact example of how I would recommend everyone to make their about me page. I can tell that you took my advise very seriously and have invested a lot of time and work into this page. Very cool! Congrats on your successes with the site too, I noticed that it is a PR4! That is awesome. It is nice to meet and nice to get to know you and I look forward to putting your site on the Spotlight in the upcoming weeks ahead.

Hi Garry,
You guessed it, I would love my site to be Spotlighted, even if I have to wait 35 weeks! lol!

Did you get my IM about my Error 404 disaster?

Garry Conn — Sat, 05 May 2007 03:59:53 -0000

I haven't compiled all my sites onto MyBlogLog yet... although I have been wanting to do it. Below is a list of a few sites I have online.

Homemom3 — Sat, 05 May 2007 01:58:45 -0000

Wow. So are you going to list your other blogs for us? Or do you have them listed at mybloglog? I can't remember.

Re: Spotlight On Sites

Garry Conn — Sat, 05 May 2007 01:47:51 -0000

I don't sleep much at all. I average about 2 to 3 hours per night *or rather morning before my kids wake up. And yes, I am a very fast worker... this is just a personal blog site of mine. I run a ton of other sites too!

My wife is the opposite on sleep requirements. And it still amazes her how I can operate and function properly off such little amounts of sleep. I know it is bad for me, but man... I just can't deal with being unconscious for long periods of time. There is too much going on, too much to miss... 8 hours of sleep is 33.34% of a day! That is total madness to miss out of so much of the day! I just can't conceive of doing that. I have about two days of the week where I do sleep in till about ten, and it does feel pretty good to be able to just sleep! I know clinically that you can't make up for lost sleep, but man it sure does feel like I can on my two sleep in days!
