… you know that thing we do - write a post everyday for the month of November. Ahhhh… I’m not sure what kind of quality posts I’m going to be able to come up with EVERYDAY for this month, but I think it’s not a totally bad thing either. LOL… we’ll see!

Anyhoo, I’ve been pretty busy putting together some sites - the first I’m using the YouTube/Ebay/Amazon mashup script that Mark over at 45n5 came up with. After some wrangling with the site - and realizing that I needed PHP5 to run the script… and then realizing that I had to make the site PHP5 compatible - that took much longer than 10 minutes… more like 2 days. But now that I have all the little kinks straightened out. Any other sites I decide to use the script on will be done in the 10 minutes as Mark said on his site. Thanks Mark for the cool script - which is ever so handy for us non techie types

I think a big motivator to let me know that the script does work and people do buy from it was that Mark had a $99 dollar affiliate sale. Awesome! So if you’ve not heard of the script - check it out. I’m going to see how it does on a couple of my older sites that are just sitting around. It’s been mentioned that using a script like this rather than lets say SEDO and the other domain parking sites, might not be such a bad idea either - since I’ve not had too much luck with that sort of thing, this is another option.

On another site I’m trying out Gary’s 5Starred script to give a nice looking Top 100 sites list. This site I’ve been humming and hawwing over for a while and for now I think it would be fun to have the Top 100 list going.

Since I’m not too super technical, I’ve had a few glitches with this - it’s not the script but me So I’ve managed to work most of that out and now have the site up and running. I’m adding sites to the list and we’ll see how that goes. Later on down the road I’m hoping to get a blog on there and a bit more content, but I really like what Gary’s done with the script and if you’re interested in getting something like this off the ground yourself - give the script a try. Gary’s really awesome about getting back to you with any feedback as well.

Both scripts - I’ve had problems with. Both Gary and Mark have been great at providing me with the feedback to get things rolling and sorted out. So if you’re a bit nervous about all the techie stuff - they’ve been pretty darn good to me and others who’ve written into them on the comments.

Give em a whirl - and what did you think of the programs?
