What about videos?
Posted by: | CommentsI think making videos for daily common sense would be the best thing to do to bring the site to the next level. I know you guys who read the blog “daily” (not so daily because I don’t post daily) aren’t big commentators, but what do you guys think?
I think videos are so much more appropriate for this type of blog…Let me know!
200,000 already!
Posted by: | CommentsWow, this really is incredible and I’m proud to announce that Daily Common Sense is already reaching 200,000 visits for this year. I launched the blog in January this year and didn’t expect to have so many visitors at the end of my first year.
I would like to thank every single one of you for taking part in discussions and making DCS a success. Now I know the blog isn’t updated regularly, but trust me guys I’m on it. It’s not that I’m not working on the website, it’s more that I’m working on things we don’t see. I see great potential for DCS and I am currently figuring out what would help it grow bigger and also how I could interact with you guys more easily.
If you have any suggestions or anything that could improve the future of this blog, please let me know! The blog is only sleeping a little bit…
Launching Daily Common Sense Forum!
Posted by: | CommentsI’m proud to announce that Daily Common Sense now has its own forum! I added a link in the navigation bar for the forum section, but you can reach it at the following address: Daily Common Sense Forum.
I must admit I mainly created the forum because of 2012 Explained, which at the time of writing has 735 comments! It really is a pain to load the article now because of all the comments in there and I’m slowly moving things to a forum instead. I’m not closing the comments yet but there will surely be a time where it won’t be possible to post a comment in that specific article. I receive thousands of first time visitors to that single article every week and I think it’s a pain for a first time visitor to load that page. A total turn off.
So there you go, continue to comment in here I really appreciate it, but the forum is a good way to exchange with others and also to reach me!
Enjoy!
Daily Common Sense goes with a full RSS feed
Posted by: | CommentsI decided today to go with a full RSS feed and full articles on the first page. I initially thought it was cleaner to only post part of the articles on the first page but it has the nasty consequence of generating an incomplete RSS feed. I read a lot of blogs and realized how painful it is to actually have to visit the website to read the complete post, so I usually unsubscribe.
Unfortunately, I think the older posts will remain uncomplete in the Feedburner feed. So from now on, you will be able to enjoy Daily Common Sense from your email inbox without having to visit the website! But remember, you are more than welcome to comment!
100,000!
Posted by: | CommentsToday, Daily Common Sense reached the 100,000 visits mark. I just want to thank every DCS reader for making this blog what it is and also a big thanks to a couple of readers that are commenting on this blog since the beginning!
The new writing pattern
Posted by: | CommentsBecause of the increasing popularity of DCS and also because I want to keep a decent level of quality to the articles, I’ve decided to adopt a new writing pattern. Until now, my writing pattern has been mostly random: Big/deep articles, small and medium articles all posted whenever I had something to write. From now on, I won’t be posting a big/complete article everyday because that kind of articles need a lot of research and posting a deep article everyday would mean a drop in quality because I can’t spend the entire day doing research.
I will try to post every day one or two small articles about new scams/stupidities/news or whatever fits in what I usually write at DCS. A deeper article will be written once a week and will probably be released on Sundays or Mondays. This way, you will get a consistent feed of news everyday, with a deeper article each week and this will help me keep a good quality level for my articles.
Always remember you can write me directly at dailycommonsense@gmail.com for any news, stories, scams or whatever you would like to see on DCS. You can even write me a little article and if it’s good, I will post your article giving your credit for it.
Thanks for reading DCS!
