Some News 02/20/2010
 
Well my Internet has been a right pain this week, so I've pulled out all the stops to try and get you this blog post ready for the big competition final tomorrow.

Ok, let's start, some friends over at FreebieDen (your welcome for the link guys) have been encouraging me to write reviews for my Website, you know, like video game reviews, accessories gadgets, you name it, I'll try and review it, so look out for that section soon.

I also had a new and improved proof section in the works, but I've had to wipe my hardrive so those pictures have gone, I'll work on it though.

It also seems like a lot more people are deleting their account on FreebieJeebies after they've completed an offer, this is unusual as it means that they've gained nothing and their referrals lose 1 green, I encourage you to keep your account active, you won't lose anything and it brings great disappointment to the person who referred you. Imagine being one green away from a MacBook, you get that green and click verify, when three of your referrals delete their account! I'd be devastated.

Also, I'm going to count up all the names from comments up tonight at 10pm GMT this should allow all British people and many Americans to comment before tomorrow, I'll announce the winners both on this blog and on the Competition page, so if there's any blog posts you haven't commented on yet, get going!
 
 
Nothing major has happened on the FJ scene lately so I've decided to do a quick update and a few other tidbits.

Firstly, Apple have launched their new iPad, so if you're looking for one of those soon I would sign up to FJ today, and start saving those greens until it hits the UK (or if you're in the US get on it double time!)

It also seems like FJ is a Facebook leper, many Facebook links have been reported as spam or scams now, however many people haven't been affected due to a explanation (such as mine on the How it Works page) and maybe a little chat with the admins if needed.

I did want to add a few more pics to the proof page, but I couldn't really find any, so I'll leave that for another day.

I'm also running a little competition to do with Google AdWords, Click the Competition link to find out more.
 
 
A user by the name of adambg over at the exceem forums has created some brand new gadgets for Windows7 and Vista! He's reinvented some old ones that he made a little while ago, tidied them up and changed the code.

So far there's only two ways to update it, but FJ will probablies give him permission for real time or frequent updating.

Changes from version 1:
  • Completely redone code: now there is no need to go into the html file and change your FJ ID manually, I have written settings where you can do this much more easily.
  • I have made it smaller so it only shows your stats now, This means you could fit quite a few in your sidebar if you are on lots of different FJ sites.
  • Images are cached and only refresh every time you restart computer: this is because at the moment FreebieJeebies have not given me permission to make it automatically update in case it harms their servers. However, the auto-updating gadget is ready to be deployed if I get permission
