Speedlinking - 20 July 2007
- Read Write Web points to FoldSpy - a tool that allows webmasters to see what part of their site is above the ‘fold’ on different browsers. Quite a useful concept if you’re optimizing your ad positioning.
- Blogging Pointers has just finished a series looking at a variety of blog time saving techniques.
- Daniel is experimenting with just showing excerpts of posts on his blog’s front page and asks what you think about it?
- Web Worker Daily shares the Top Five Myths about Home-Based Web Workers - I’m sure I’ve heard all of them dozens of times (although #2 may well be true occasionally…. not the naked bit…. usually….).
- 10% of companies have fired an employee for a breach of blogging or message board policies - thanks to Michael for the tip off.
- Clever Dude has 50 Tips for New Personal Finance Bloggers (many of which would be good for all kinds of bloggers).

That does me wonder how many professional bloggers out there just wake up in the morning and blog, regardless of what they are wearing…

Dan, let me know if you keep getting a 404, might be a DNS problem, it is working fine for me and a couple of friends.

When blogging, I just see how much I can view in the Wordpress preview pane without scrolling. I figure that’s a fairly decent estimate of what shows above the fold for most people. Since there is no such thing as perfection, I’ve decided that’s good enough for me.
