I logged into my Google Adsense account last week for the first time in ages to check on my earnings. Unsurprisingly, with the lack of regular updates, my income from the adverts has dropped off completely. The adverts will never bring in big money, but one month during my round the world trip they peaked at $92.

Recent chats with Pete, who is becoming a bit of a ‘digital media‘ expert, have reminded me of the potential earnings from websites. Most of this is through adverts or affiliate programs. I won’t go into detail, but the better the content and the more traffic you can generate, the more chance you stand of earning some money.

We’re going through a bit of a re-organisation at work. This year has been absolutely manic and we’ve pretty much burnt ourselves out (Jan – August I averaged 1.25 weekends a month in Bristol). As a result we will be changing the way we work, with each of us doing a more specialised role rather than a whole lot of everything.

Therefore I will be concentrating a lot more on web development and doing much less of the event organising, communication and administration. In that sense it is great, although I will get to travel much less.

The net result of all of this is I should have more time to have to get on with my life out of work, part of which involves getting this site back up and running.

So, expect more regular posts, a new theme (as I broke the current one with a recent upgrade) and possibly a new website or two.
