Hey readers and Twitter followers and people who read my blog on Facebook but never comment (I know you’re there I have statisticals!)

I have some sad news – I am turning my job hunt to Games Testing and Q&A
I still of course want to program and design, but finding a job in the industry is proving near impossible for a graduate with no experience and I have applied to loads of companies that haven’t even replied! So, here’s my new plan:

• Get into Q&A
• Earn some money
• Work on projects in my spare time and get more stuff out there + bumlick
• Get into programming/design
• Earn money++

Super depressing but my pockets are very, very empty.

In other news I’ve sold lots of stuff on eBay recently to try and make some cash. Got lots of stuff yet to go on but I have learned 2 things about eBay – 1.Its all in the shipping fee and 2.The eBay Turbo Lister is a terrible piece of software, but its still a lot faster than listing things directly on eBay.

Those of you who are android users, I’ve just started using Touchpal as my replacement on-screen keyboard for when I’m walking or whatever and it is really, really good. Switch it to the mode pictured below and you will love it – if you’re reading on your phone click here to get it on the market and here for the English language pack.

BTW if you’re a FriendFeed user my blog now supports “PubSubHubbub” so it means as soon as I post it will appear instantaneously (whoa spelt that right first time ) in your FriendFeed and other sites when they support it (Google Reader soon apparently).

Still loving SquareSpace, especially their stats and search engine management systems. Apparently if you do a search for “screaming narwhal carla” (see You Fight Like A Dairy Farmer) on Google I’m the 2nd result!! Lmao, that is awesome, hi Monkey Island speculators!

Have a good tenth of August,
Much love,

-Ben
