Hello, it's me
To answer some comments I got on the feedback form; you can see all of the click data for each article on the website. I didn't get a big enough response asking for this info in the newsletter, so not going to implement it. I don't track who views the results of the polls, so not sure how many other people are doing that. In general I'm going to try to build out that tool a bit more; I think there's a decent amount of functionality that can be added with fairly minimal effort. I also need to finally sort out of the referral program I added ages ago. I might expand that out into its own standalone tool as well. Honestly I'm getting a bit tired of going ham on programming though. It's really nice to spend time outside doing extreme sports (something I enjoy) or hanging out with friends. I think my new year's resolution for next year is going to be to just enjoy life outside of the computer a bit more. That gives me about half a year to figure out how to pay for such a lifestyle. Challenge accepted.
Anyway, sorry for the rambling. Hope you have a lovely weekend and here's the last issue of the week!
