As regular visitors may have noticed there were only few (or no) updates to the site in the past few weeks (or months).
This was primarily due to the fact that most of my time was soaked up with finishing my diploma thesis.
I have now successfully graduated from university and will be entering “business” in October this year.
In the meantime I plan to simplify this site and update most of the 700 posts.
My advertisement revenue is down from previous 900 $ USD to a laughable 11 $ USD a month, while the number of visitors has just slightly declined from 10,500 (daily) to 5,000 (okay that’s a 50% drop, but still). The drop in ad revenue is also explained with the new theme that I introduced in December 2009. It is, as I may have to admit, too confusing and too colourful/image heavy.
Many preferred the white theme before (2007 to 2009). In that sense I will try to do a good job in coming up with a real simple and user-friendly design. After all this site is not primarily for me, but for you. Also, I need to fix the download links and generally links that link-out. I will pay more attention to comments. For all the trouble and lack of updates I am sorry. Stay posted and keep the comments coming.

New features will be added soon: bbpress forums, wordpress mu blogs for everyone, lighter code, more themes, more interactivity… stay locked!
UPDATE: Installed bbpress and linked it to h4x3d.com (available at discuss.h4x3d.com) | Installed WordPress MU and linked to h4x3d.com (available at blogs.h4x3d.com) – however I am not yet satisfied with the way it works. I will have to talk to zone.net on monday and sort out domain wildcards, so that blogs are created as subdomains and not appended as virtual folders). I have not finished implementing the changes, specifically added it to this site, added themes, added plugins, etc.
Care to take a peek already though if you like and register… it is nothing definite right now though ;)
