Planning my next European expedition

I’ve been checking travel books lately and this year, I’ll be travelling during my vacations.

The European destinations that I have chosen so far are:

  • London
  • Paris
  • Brussels
  • Amsterdam
  • Berlin

I have not made my mind yet on the date.

30 Rock vs. Studio 60

It is very weird that NBC put two new TV series whose subject are TV shows. 30 Rock is produced by the people of Saturday Night Live. It features Tina Fey (ex-SNL) as the head writer and Alec Baldwin as the network executive. I must that that Alec Baldwin’s character is quite funny (Jack Donaghy) as well as Tracy Morgan’s. On the other hand, Studio 60 is more “serious.” You know that it has a West Wing aura since it shares the same creator, Aaron Sorkin. Studio 60 has a different style which we can appreciate. You will certainly recognize the actors like Matthew Perry, Amanda Peet, Bradley Whitford. Both shows are quite entertaining. However, I must say that 30 Rock is worth just to see Alec Baldwin play. He’s great!

Text Link Ads

I think that TLA (aff) is a good source of revenue for casual bloggers. It helps pay the webhosting and other bills. However, from an advertiser point of view, I think it is a bit overpriced and does not bring the benefits that one would expect. The clickthrough from real visitors is minimal. The link juice is not that powerful. Google is now intelligent enough to recognize a paid text links and a spam blog among other thinks. The anti-spam group has done a lot of progress. Power to the blogger/publisher for TLA.
