A Good Start To The Year

Well I expected this year to start off like any other just writing reviews and getting prepared for the trip to CES. Well to my surprise the review of the ASUS WL-500W Super Speed Wireless Router made it to the front page of Digg. It was a surprise because it has been increasingly harder to get stories to the front page, and even if you do sometimes they would get buried very quickly. 2 previous stories, the Tom Bihn Super Ego Laptop Bag, and the Holiday 2006 PC Case Buyer’s guide both made it to the front page of digg, but where buried within 15 minutes of hitting the front page. Because of the dig we had a huge spike in traffic and also the Shopping.com product ad got clicked 3x what is usually does. That is a CPC ad so it made me 3x of what I would normally made. So the year has started off well!

You may have noticed I have not updated my blog in a few days. This is because I have been preparing for CES. Right now I am sitting in the airport waiting for my flight. Getting through security was much easier than last year. I was through in 5 minutes and I did not have to wait in any line! I am really excited for CES! Hopefully they do not loose my bags!
