A Note About: Posting on the weekends (it ain't happening)

So far, the response to this site's been pretty good.  We did around 350 hits yesterday, and while that's not as high as I would have liked-- especially linking off my articles from the Examiner-- it isn't a complete disaster.  When I started writing over there, it took about a month to get a real readership going.  So, we're gonna give it a month on this site and see what we can build: if it falls on its face-- no harm, no foul, we'll just have to stay locked up over at the Examiner.

Meanwhile, I wanted to post this note about the weekends here at NGFH.  We're not going to be running any new material over the weekend (unless, of course, something really important happens or I feel especially compelled to crank something out) here, but there will still be articles going live over at the Examiner.  We may transport some of them over to this site, but there won't be any new, exclusive-to-NGFH material here.  I gotta get a break in somewhere.

But while you're here, check out the archive in the bottom-right corner.  In the past 2 days, we've posted around 20 different stories-- some of them from the Examiner, some of them exclusive to this site.  We've also got a comments section below each article that you're more than happy to get talking in (so far, we've got one comment, from one of my regular readers up in Connecticut-- thanks, Cynthia), if ya like.  And, of course, you're always welcome to come to this page and see what articles I've run on the Examiner recently.  Right now, I've got another report about Jay Leno's ratings in Dallas, some more stuff on the Letterman scandal, an article about "Brutal Legend", aaand...some nonsense about "The Green Hornet".  Come by and give 'em a shot.

I'm really happy that all of you are coming by.  By the way, this Google Adsense stuff?  Total nonsense.  Those ads you see where someone's grinning like an idiot and holding up a check that says "I made $4,000,000 posting links/ads for Google!"?  That sh-t is just untrue.  We've had close to 400 hits since we opened the front door, and if my revenue counter's to be believed, that means NGFH has earned $.29.  Obviously, coming from the Examiner, I'm not used to something that low.  I did the math, and I literally get paid 20 times over there what that Adsense program pays here.  So, this site's not gonna be about the earnings so much as the content.  Bully for you, reader.

Hope everyone has a great weekend.  We'll be back on Monday with new material.  In the meantime, check out the archive and this link to my Examiner page.

Cheers,
Scott W
