Well it looks like Antbag tagged me with his “What I Would Look Like on South Park” post. If you haven’t seen it the site is pretty cool concept actually. It allows you to create a South Park character that resembles whatever you want and it gives you a ton of options to add to it. If you get a chance go take a look at South Park Studio and spend 5 minutes and design your own character for fun. So this is my interpretation of what I would look like on the show. I know it looks as though I need to get out and get some sun, but it doesn’t always work that well for me and usually it just ends up in a sunburn!

Well this was a fun break to take from redesigning my site here, but its time to get back to work.  If everything goes well I’m going to try and launch my new site design sometime this weekend, but I’ll just have to wait and see.

I’ve been a big fan of Crazy Egg ever since I started using it last fall to monitor my landing page effectiveness.  Well the other day I went to login to my account and I saw a notice to check out the new Confetti view on my campaigns.  Once I logged in and saw this new feature I was really impressed.

In a nutshell it gives a very nice rich colorful view of every one of the clicks that occurred on your page.  In addition to that you can filter the clicks down by certain types of criteria inclucing top referrer, top keywords, browser type, time to click, operating system, and many others as well.  Its definitely another nice added feature to an already great product.  If you haven’t started using Crazy Egg to track some of your sites, I highly suggest that you do.  Just by taking the information I’ve received from it in addition to my web analytics reports, it has definitely saved me alot of time and money.

Ok, I know I’ve hardly been posting anything on here lately, but thats going to change in the coming weeks. I’ve been working on buying a house and I was busy most of this weekend with a friend’s wedding so my time has been limited this month. I’m shooting to have my new design for this blog up towards the end of this month, so be on the lookout for that.

Anyways on to the topic of this post. Earlier this year I saw several bloggers that wrote posts relating to “5 things you didn’t know about me”. After I read alot of these I thought that most were very interesting and I always planned on writing one myself, but I never got around to it until now. So here is my list of 5 Things You Didn’t Know About Me before reading this.

Unfortunately I haven’t had a lot of time to spend on my blog lately.  I’ve been busy looking for a house to buy, which I finally found this weekend, but I’ll talk about that more later on.  I’ve also begun work on my redesign of this site, utilizing the Copyblogger theme template which I hope to have live in a few weeks.

I don’t watch a whole lot of tv anymore, but I’m really excited because the new season of Rescue Me on FX starts on Wednesday.   Next to The Office this is my favorite show on television and if if  you haven’t ever watched it I highly recommend it.
