Web site statistics are indeed very very interesting and I usually take a peek at my stats every now and then. Even more interestingly is when I am able to find out where my visitors are coming from. Yesterday, as usual, I peeked into the stats and saw a visitor from Guam. Wow! That’s really cool because Guam is located in the middle of the Pacific Ocean.

Interestingly, Guam belongs to the United States of America and has a population of approximately 170,000. Tourism is their main source of income and their beaches looks very inviting with clear waters and white sandy beaches. I’ll probably book myself to Guam one of these days. To my visitor from Guam, thanks for stopping by.

I’m just wondering if any of you heard of Yahoo web messenger? To be very honest with you, I have not, until a friend introduced it to me this morning.

You see, I was experiencing some problems with my Yahoo! Messenger client on my computer. It intermittenly hung on me and sometimes hangs my whole computer. My friends were so fed up of seeing going online-offline-online-offline that they inquired.

Because of the problems I am facing with the native client, I’ve uninstalled it and am currently using the web-based messenger. Besides, it’s great to stay in touch with friends and families at places like the airport, cafes and shopping complexes.

One of my webmaster buddies have commented that I should get a new theme for this blog. Apparently, the green and orange colours are getting stale and boring though I feel otherwise (maybe that’s because I own this blog :p)

Changing your blog’s theme is akin to giving your house a new coat of paint. It may be fresh, may be sparkling, may be appealing, and could very well attract visitors to stay longer in your home.  Translating this into webmaster words and this means “prolonged traffic” which in turn may most likely turn out to be a sales conversion or PPC revenue.

In any case, I think I’ll maintain the current “Almost Spring” theme until such time when I finally get hold of a cool web design.  For those of you who have been stuck to a theme for a number of years, it’s time to consider a new coat of paint.
