It’s been a fairly active week around these parts and I thought I’d take a TM post and tidy up a few housekeeping things:

• First, I kinda cleaned up the site a bit.  I lost the blogroll stuff in the Right Sidebar and moved the Technorati and Odiogo buttons down to the bottom.  They seemed to clutter up the joint.
• I moved around some of the monetizing ads to make things flow a little better
• New affiliate programs!  I got approved for the Apple Store.  I’m way excited about that one – I had been turned down from Commission Junction for that one on two occasions.  You’ll notice it’s displayed  -Ahem – prominently at the top of the Right Sidebar.  I also started as an affiliate for Trikke.  Have you seen the info-mercial for this?  They are rockin’ and really do fit into the realm of keeping us writers healthy and getting us out o’ the freakin’ house!  I hooked up as an affiliate with those Men With Pens Chuckle-heads and their Unlimited Freelancer book.  My copy should arrive shortly – When it does I’ll do a TM review of the little beastie.
• The bottom of the Right Sidebar has got links to two websites that are seemingly unrelated to writing.  The reason they seem unrelated, boys and girls, is because they’ve got nary a thing to do with writing.  They are just blatant link plugs for two new sites that I own.  Truthrocket is my home page for my MLM business with Global Domains International, hence the .ws extension.
• The other link is for Clear Blue Flight, a site dedicated to flight training.  Yes, Tumblemoose is a pilot – and you would not believe the wind resistance from the antlers!
• Please feel free to have a look at those two sites
• Ugh, if you come across a free 3 month hosting offer from Jumpline…  RUN! Run far, run fast.  I won’t bore you with the details, but let’s just say you get what you pay for, and sometimes not even that!
• I apologize for not making the commenting rounds last week, I’ll be back in the saddle this coming week though.
• Finally, I want to do a pre-announcement about the Monday post.  My good friend Mary Anne from iProfitonPurpose.  Prepare to be blown away by this guest post.

Thanks for indulging a bit of houseowrk here at TM.  I hope you like the changes, and of course feedback is always ignored welcome!

As you were.  Carry on.
