Oops, if you subscribe to my .rss you have some reading to do. I messed up the php query for the rss a while back and limited the rss to blogs with id<180. This means none of my blogs were getting added to the feed. Sorry for the millions of people I inconvenienced.

I took your test, knowing already that I was colorblind. I would like to pass on how I explain to people what it is like. I liken it to reading a foreign language. You can make out certain words, and perhaps make out what is trying to be said, but since you do not read it, you cannot fully understand what is being said.
Of the six questions, I only got 2 correct, 1 and 4. Being red/green colorblind, and now 40, I have learned to deal with this in my own way. I see bright colors better than dark, and I am used to asking what a color is, even a stranger.

This blog post is to discuss the status message page.
Submission Guidelines:
** I fixed the bug that was deleting words on some message submissions.
** I started logging IP addresses and will start to ban people who keep posting comments/discussions using the status message submission form. I do not want the page to become a discussion about how much my site sucks, use the comment form below for that if you feel that way. I have a feeling it's same couple of people posting everyday.
**I am saving all the deleted messages and will post a link in the next couple days so anyone can view them. I am not sure what I should call it: (Recycle bin? Deleted status messages? Unfunny status messages?)" Any suggestions?
** I deleted all duplicate messages. If you notice a duplicate I missed please post it below.
**Update May 15 2009
1.) You can now turn the filter off. This will add more messages. Be cautious though as there will be a lot of profanity, duplicates, and grammar errors.
2.) Search Messages -- You can now search messages.
3.) Sort by Rating
** Update 5/18/09:
1.) I deleted (permanently) a few pages of messages. These contained duplicates and nonsense messages (uncreative messages about poop, doing someones mom, and one word messages)
** Update 5/20/09
1.) I made it so you can now search by submitters name. To search by submitters name click the name on a status message (which is after the date submitted). Note that all messages do not have a submitters name. This feature makes it easier to keep track of all your submissions, just make sure you use a unique name when you submit messages. View TJ's submissions
2.) I also fixed the bugs in the search.
** Update 10/6/09
1.) You can now use your twitter username to submit status messages. A link to your twitter page will be included with the message.
2.) I added a character counter to the status message submit form. Messages are, and always have been, limited to 255 characters. I may add an option filter for only messages that are less than 140 characters for twitter users.
** Update 10/07/09
Ratings are back... blame my crappy coding.
** Update 11/01/09
I deleted all racist messages and all messages relating to the racist messages. There were about 3 racist messages and 20 messages talking about those messages. Please people if you have an issue with a message post it here using the comment for below... not as a status message submission. By posting here your concerns will be dealt with quicker.
** Update 11/03/09
I banned more people who were posting offensive comments or posting comments relating to the page or other messages. Please follow the simple guidelines above. If problems persists I will have to make messages subject to moderator approval before being shown.
** Update 11/3/09 - Automod
I've been testing an automod script I wrote to help me out a little bit with the moderating. The script will automatically set a message to "filtered" if it receives a certain amount of "thumbs down". The messages won't get deleted but you would only be able to see these message if you turn the filter off. Also, messages that were previously set to "filtered" will automatically be unfiltered if they receive a certain number of "thumbs up". You can help by rating messages with their appropriate rating!
** Update 11/16/09
I'm playing around with the ratings. Instead of displaying two amounts for the total up votes and down votes I want to display as one total. It's working and so are the votes however I didn't get it yet to update the total upon clicking yet. So for now your votes will count but you won't see the number change unless you fresh the page. I have to get javascript to automatically update... Fans didn't like this idea :(
Update 11/16/09
I fixed an IE bug which was graying out all messages after a messages without a name. I was missing a span close tag. If you notice any bugs please report them below.

Google is constantly monitoring my site and issuing new features to me daily through their ton of services I use from them. We all know I need Google to survive and Google needs me to survive. Okay well maybe not the latter.
Most recently they enabled event tracking on my Analytics account. Analytics tracks visitors data and Event tracking adds the ability to track interactions with Web 2.0 style content such as Flash, AJAX, Silverlight, social networking apps. Unfortunately tjshome.com isn't exactly Web 2.0 style so I probably have little use if any for this. But wanted suggestions from other web developers on how to make use of this feature from others and see how you putting this feature to use. So is anyone using this? It's only available to select account as of yet and I couldn't find much helpful information with a google search.
Here is the email I received:

Greetings from Google Analytics,
We are happy to let you know that the Event Tracking feature is now available in all profiles for the following Google Analytics Account ID: 624085. Please note that you are receiving this email update because you are an 'Admin' or designated contact for the account listed above.
When you log in to these profiles, you will see a new set of reports called "Event Tracking" under the Content section. As posted on our blog, this is a limited release currently available only to select profiles.
Event Tracking allows you to track interactions with Web 2.0 style content such as Flash, AJAX, Silverlight, social networking apps, etc. We recently made tracking Adobe Flash even easier with the release of a new Flash Tracking client library. It allows for much simpler tracking of Flash content with drag and drop functionality and an open source framework.
To use Event Tracking, you will need to upgrade your site to use the new ga.js javascript. Detailed instructions on how to set up Event Tracking on your site are available on our CodeSite.
To find your ga.js code snippet, edit the settings for your profile and click the "Check Status" link on the upper right corner of the page. You can now track interactions beyond just pageviews.
Sincerely,
The Google Analytics Team

The status message page has become pretty popular. I figured since Facebook has eliminated the condition that status messages start with "X is" a long time ago (Myspace never had this provision) I would finally eliminate the restriction from my site. So you can now add your favorite status messages that start with additional prefixes like "x was","x has","x was", or the favorite "x ".
I had originally held up on making this change because I felt removing the "x is" start would lead to more erroneous submissions that do not fit the definition of a status message (the status message should give you some idea of what the author is doing) I currently remove about 90% of submissions because they are either unoriginal, not a "status" message or contain vulgarities. But hopefully by adding more prefixes it will lead to more of the original and funny status message submissions that makes Tjshome the best source of status messages on the internet.

I think I found the site Google used to value youtube before purchasing it for $1.65 billion. The website Sootle has a algorithm to value website automatically. I do not believe the algorithm is near accurate however. Tjshome.com is currently valued at $33,000k....any offers?

I checked Google webmaster tools and it let me know that I have 2 subscribers to my blog.
The good news is Google only counts subscribers using its rss readers (ie: Google reader and igoogle.com). The bad news is I know who the two subscribers are... me and my brother, haha.
I submitted my blog to RSS Hugger, a site I find other interesting blogs at to see if that increases my blog's visibility and I will update you on any results.

TJShome is not by far a new concept to America. Research into national newspaper archives show that "tjshome" appeared in american culture as early as March 23, 1938.

Or is this just another example of the still imperfected OCR (Optical character recognition) technology? ... Maybe...

I've been doing a lot of coding for the site lately. However, no one probably has noticed or cared, except for me, of course.
The biggest change is I removed all the <Table> tags from the header and footer. The page layout is strictly done with cascading style sheets (css) and div's tags. This was done for to help rank in search engines, allow for easier mobile viewing, and to confirm with the latest coding standards. If you view the code source on any page the code that comes first is the page content and not the menu or other meaningless layout code. The content is what you want search engines to read so it helps if it's at the top of you page.
I also been working on getting rid of depreciated html tags from my code. This includes <center> and <font> tags which I had a lot of. I've replaced <center> with css style "text-align" and defined font styles in the <span> tag or sytlesheet.
Furthermore, my php is a mess. I've been trying to clean it up, however it's alot of code. I've started using indents and more code comments to to make the code look neat. I also started using more defined functions, templates, and variables to get rid of duplicate code.
Also I made more logo's so every selection on the menu now has a different logo. This is rare feature you do not see on many site's so I hope you enjoy it. :P
So one thing I noticed after the layout is now when someone does a Google search for "Tjshome" they get a list of links to my popular pages and a link to view more results from my domain. This makes me happy as this is something you can't request and it's not known how to get listed like this. I am not sure if my code changes is how I got listed , it could also be that I search for "Tjshome" or tjshome.com a lot to see my search results.

I have done some analysis on my website based on visitor statistics and other merits. You will notice some pages will be shut down upon review because they are not worth keeping as I lost interest in them and so did the rest of the viewing audience.
Free iPod - It's taken me over a year to get a free iPod so it may not be worth it to keep these pages around much longer. Offercentric has made it very difficult to earn referrals since they keep adding more site's which take referrals away from each offer. They have 4 different site's with separate requirements for iPod's alone. We will see how is doing in Q1 2007. 8.560k
Cool AIM Smiley's - For some reason people still love these. Here to stay, at least for this year. 36.5k Hits in 2007
Surveys for Myspace - Created in November 2005 and is one of the most popular pages so it definately is staying. Could use enhancements such as interface, ability to add more questions on a survey, and tracking. 2007 Hits 1,270k
Polls for Myspace - This site was created in May 2007 and although not as popular as I would like it's going to stick around for at least another year. Enhancements may include ability to add more options and interface. 2007 Hits 12k
Away Messages- This page has good page rank and is quite popular. Sticking around for a while. Enhancements may include ratings and using database for all away messages (not just the submission). 91K
Funny Status Messages - This page is new so not enough data for analysis. Only 1,100 Hits so far.
Famous Quotes - Quotes are a personal favorite of mine so this is here to stay. 2007 Hits 83k
Cool AIM Screennames - Created in 2004 with the intention of never actually selling any screen names, however, this site does draw in visitors so its going to stay. Also, I love the hate mail I receive from this site, so keep it coming. 65k Hits
Buddy Icons - A popular favorite and I think its a great page if you're looking for an icon because new additions are submitted daily. 132K hits in 2007
Avatars for Myspace - An even more popular page and I think its a great page if you're looking for an avatar because new additions are submitted daily. Enhancements may include ratings. 994K hits in 2007.
Dumb Laws - This page has great page rank and is here to stay - enhancement includes researching actual new laws to add with real sources. 74k hits in 2007
A Joke Page- This page has poor statistics and will be shut down due to lack of interest by me and others. 8k hits in 2007
Weird News - Poor statistics but I like to view these myself every so often so I will keep it for a while
Pic of the Month - Created in 2005. This page will stay. I would like to add additional material. 7k hits
Color Blindness - Created in May 2005, this page will stay. 42.5k hits.
Today in History - This page will be shut down due to lack of interest.
Great Amazon Deals - I like this page for finding good amazon deals however it has low popularity at 3.5k hits
Online Image Editor - Created in Feb 2006. Future enhancements include better user interface and more options. 120K hits in 2007.
Song Lyrics - Song lyrics are here to stay (unless I get sued). 34k hits in 2007
Acronym Dictionary - Added in July 2006, this page is still relatively new and here to stay. I like the design of this page, so I am not willing to see it go no matter how poor the popularity. Unfortunately, there is no room to grow as I think I have all the most popular acronyms. Someone make some new acronyms, quick! 4.1k hits in 2007
In the News - With less than 7,000 hits in 2007 this site is slated for removal. :(
About TJ - We need to keep this site as everybody (361 hits in 2007) is looking to read about TJ

I have done some analysis on my website based on visitor statistics and other merits. You will notice some pages will be shut down upon review because they are not worth keeping as I lost interest in them and so did the rest of the viewing audience.
Free iPod - It's taken me over a year to get a free iPod so it may not be worth it to keep these pages around much longer. Offercentric has made it very difficult to earn referrals since they keep adding more site's which take referrals away from each offer. They have 4 different site's with separate requirements for iPod's alone. We will see how is doing in Q1 2007. 8.560k
Cool AIM Smiley's - For some reason people still love these. Here to stay, at least for this year. 36.5k Hits in 2007
Surveys for Myspace - Created in November 2005 and is one of the most popular pages so it definately is staying. Could use enhancements such as interface, ability to add more questions on a survey, and tracking. 2007 Hits 1,270k
Polls for Myspace - This site was created in May 2007 and although not as popular as I would like it's going to stick around for at least another year. Enhancements may include ability to add more options and interface. 2007 Hits 12k
Away Messages- This page has good page rank and is quite popular. Sticking around for a while. Enhancements may include ratings and using database for all away messages (not just the submission). 91K
Funny Status Messages - This page is new so not enough data for analysis. Only 1,100 Hits so far.
Famous Quotes - Quotes are a personal favorite of mine so this is here to stay. 2007 Hits 83k
Cool AIM Screennames - Created in 2004 with the intention of never actually selling any screen names, however, this site does draw in visitors so its going to stay. Also, I love the hate mail I receive from this site, so keep it coming. 65k Hits
Buddy Icons - A popular favorite and I think its a great page if you're looking for an icon because new additions are submitted daily. 132K hits in 2007
Avatars for Myspace - An even more popular page and I think its a great page if you're looking for an avatar because new additions are submitted daily. Enhancements may include ratings. 994K hits in 2007.
Dumb Laws - This page has great page rank and is here to stay - enhancement includes researching actual new laws to add with real sources. 74k hits in 2007
A Joke Page- This page has poor statistics and will be shut down due to lack of interest by me and others. 8k hits in 2007
Weird News - Poor statistics but I like to view these myself every so often so I will keep it for a while
Pic of the Month - Created in 2005. This page will stay. I would like to add additional material. 7k hits
Color Blindness - Created in May 2005, this page will stay. 42.5k hits.
Today in History - This page will be shut down due to lack of interest.
Great Amazon Deals - I like this page for finding good amazon deals however it has low popularity at 3.5k hits
Online Image Editor - Created in Feb 2006. Future enhancements include better user interface and more options. 120K hits in 2007.
Song Lyrics - Song lyrics are here to stay (unless I get sued). 34k hits in 2007
Acronym Dictionary - Added in July 2006, this page is still relatively new and here to stay. I like the design of this page, so I am not willing to see it go no matter how poor the popularity. Unfortunately, there is no room to grow as I think I have all the most popular acronyms. Someone make some new acronyms, quick! 4.1k hits in 2007
In the News - With less than 7,000 hits in 2007 this site is slated for removal. :(
About TJ - We need to keep this site as everybody (361 hits in 2007) is looking to read about TJ

About Status Messages:
A status message is a function of some instant messaging applications whereby a user may post a message that appears automatically to other users if they attempt to make contact. It is analogous to the voice message in an answering machine or voice mail system. However, status messages may be displayed even if the person is present. They are often updated much more frequently than messages in answering machines, and thus may serve as a means of instant, limited "publication" or indirect communication.
Whereas answering machine or voice mail messages often have a generic greeting to leave a message, status messages more often contain a description of where the person is at the moment or what they are doing. Because most instant messaging clients indicate to users when their online contacts are away before they send a message, more often than not away messages are meant to be read in lieu of sending a message, rather than a response. Away messages are not to be confused with idle messages, which is an automatic reply to a message when the messaging client has determined that the replier is not at his or her computer.

I put the eBay auction template back online. The template enables you to make a professional looking ebay auction with out any html knowledge. I took it off line due to lack of interest but I might as well at least still link to it from here since it takes up very little space on the server.
Let me know what you think and if I can make any improvemetns.

I made a couple updates to the website. Here's a list of those updates made in the last month or so.
- Now with the Image Converter you can add your picture to an iPod and the classic Etch-a-Sketch frames.
- Changedthe background color -- let me know what you think.
- Limited the blog to 25 blogs per page since the page was getting too long.
- Deleted the Guestbook -- to much spam and securities holes - not enough time for me to fix those.
- Removed the eBay auction tools from the menu... Not enough traffic.
- Added a webmaster todo list. This you can't see but it will help me manage changes that I want to implement to the website. There's so much to do that sometimes I think of changes that need to be made but forget about them later. I am quite happy with the code so I may post the source for web designers to use on their page.
- Added Dumb law Submissions page - See the stupid laws submitted by visitors to this site.
- Fixed browser layout issues and validated front page and css.
