Ads - Definitions

Added a page that contains basic terms used in online advertising business. The page also contains an innovative approach to advertisin - a Tag Cloud. Quite an interesting concept.

Python

Added a new page to the Development section. Dedicated to Python development, inspired by Google AppSpot project.

Poviest Bosne finally hosted

Bosnia

I have updated the link to the ebook. Now the static page points to the redirector at appspot. The redirector will be updated in case the hosting for the file changes in the future. At least this way the link to the book will stay the same.

The book has been uploaded to a free file hosting service. Will see how it goes. It has a download counter and a comments section, which is nice. Just what I needed for the file download. I wonder how long the file will be available. I have signed in for the service so I hope the file will not expire.

Online Storage

Online Storage - added as one of the services for Web Development. Comparison of online storage services available.
I'm looking for the hosting of the eBook on Bosnian history. Need 150 MB of space for indefinite period and small number of downloads (presumably).

Web Developer

Web Developer page has been updated with links to different services that help in web development. The links are added to the right box.

Web Section Updated

Interesting Web Sites page has been moved to IT site. I'm enhancing a web development section with different services for web presence.

Bicycle Maps

I added a link to my bike maps on the Melbourne page.

Online Business

Online Business

Added a page about "making money online". Since this appears to be a hot topic as always. I will test a few options available to cash out the internet money and post my findings and links.
So far, Google AdSense has proven itself in revenue potential. The issue with all the advertising sites is that they require a large number of visitors clicking the ads. That's why people employ various viral strategies to make other people do just that. Marketing at its worst, obviously.

Bosnia eBook

The server where Poviest Bosne ebook was hosted crashed a few days ago and I am now looking for a new host for the 140MB file. I am trying a few options until I find the one that provides a reliable and seamless service.
I also need to move a few pages that are still outside googlepages site and integrate them into other sites.

Albums

Images

Reworked the procedure of uploading photos. Some albums that were created as Flickr tags, and later disappeared, now have their own album page.
I've completed my custom desktop application that uploads the photos to Flickr, creates title, and photo url with thumbnail. The process of posting photos should now be extremely simple.

Templates

The whole site, including all the sub-sites, was redeployed after all the pages were modified to use design templates. This should make the maintenance of the site easy. Eventual redesign of the page is much easier and more possible now.
Since the original site was developed in late 1990s and content was added over time, there was no templates to follow. Now, this should be changed.
Almost no changes will be visible because they are under the hood. But, there should be no more glitches in the interface because all the elements are linked to styles and are using the common style sheet.
Now I can add stuff to every page in one go, instead of updating each individual page manually. Finally done, need some rest.

Finance Site - Credit Cards Australia

Here is the first templated page of the Finance site. The styles are not yet finished at the moment but the page uses the template and the content is complete.
Later, I will modify the CSS and the template itself and then the whole site will look right. :)

Design Templates

2004. Images

Starting to redo the web site(s) using design templates. The images site is the easiest to convert. I even had a sort of a template to use for the pages but it was cumbersome to update all the pages when a common code was changed.
This way it will be easier to add new photos and I won't loose tags and photo albums on Flickr anymore. :)
