For anyone that runs their own website, today I found a really cool tool for you. Nibbler carries out an automated free test of your site, and tells you basically how good it is - it covers technical specs, if the website has been tweeted about, and basically gives you some guide as to what you should work on to make your site better.
If you want to see the report for my blog it's here. One of the cool things about the checker is that it gives you "badges", like achievements in games, good and bad ones. They even run competitions sometimes to get bizarre badges.
Which is why I'm about to say "Ni! This is a dead parrot! Brian!"
And deoxyribonucleic acid.
(I'm really pleased I wrote that right - my dad used to be an industrial chemist and I wouldn't want to have misspelt a chemical!)
Read their blog too, it's really cool. Almost as good as mine! :)
Anyway, so far I've got a score of 5.3 out of 10 for my blog, 885 points, and 12 badges, including W3C Rebel (basically my blog is so bad at complying with web code it's James Dean) and Ink Waster (I'm missing a print style sheet apparently - so don't print my blog or bad things will apparently happen). It promises to be very addictive as I try to fiddle with stuff to increase my score.
So apart from that, I've nearly got my stuff together to do my Guild synopsis video on Saturday. No details yet though, you'll have to wait until you see the video.
One thing though I'd really appreciate - when I do post the video, I'll tell you where it is and all that. It'd be a big help to me if you just watched the video, and maybe Liked it if you've got a YouTube account (or a Google account, they're the same thing), I'd really appreciate it.
Bye for now!
