Adwords Keyword Tool blocked for non-adwords accounts?

As a publisher who uses Google Adsense, I’m a regular user of Google’s Adsense Keyword Tool. The tool, previously accessibly to anyone, allows publishers and advertisers (both potential and current), to look up a whole host of values specific to certain keywords. Sometime in the last 24 hours Google went ahead and blocked access to [...]

Introducing BehindMLM, my new project

A few days ago I wrote a post asking if people thought there’d be enough value in a seperate MLM blog authored by myself. My articles on Polaris Media Group had seemingly taken on a life of their own but didn’t really fit into the general scope of OzSoapbox. The response I got was mostly [...]

Database problems

Chinese new year happened over here and I didn’t have any internet access over the last week or so. So naturally one of my wordpress plugins realises I’m not around and decided to go rogue and place undue stress on the hosting database. Hosting company then realise this and disable the database until I get [...]

OzSoapbox turns one: A year in review

I’m a few days late with this post due to internet problems but give or take a week I don’t really think the blog is going to mind. It’s been an interesting year for me writing for this website. I started off with absolutely nothing. I had no web presence under OzSoapbox and started from [...]

Blogging from the streets of Taiwan

I’ve been living out of a suitcase this past week as I’ve made my way around Taiwan. Luckily I’ve had the luxury of a relatively stable internet connection so although blogging frequency has slipped I’ve still been able to keep things somewhat updated around here. Over the next week or so (could be two weeks) [...]

Mobile blogging on the Asus 1000 HE Eee PC

I’ve never been a fan of laptops. They’re fiddly, annoying and why bother with something inferior when you’ve got a nice beefy desktop capable of doing anything. Don’t get me wrong, I see the practical use for them but personally I’ve never had the need for one and have avoided getting one ‘just because’. Last [...]

Chinese company sues UK blogger using Australian laws

If you’ve used the internet for more then thirty seconds at any given time over the last few months then you’ve probably seen the giant boob ads for online game Evony. You know, the ones featuring euro-trash models with giant cleavage and the submissive tagline ‘my lord’. Well, seems British blogger Bruce Everiss decided to [...]

Liskula Cohen and Rosemary Port redefine 'stupid'.

Some people don’t get how the internet works. No matter how much they use it, who they talk to or what they read, the internet remains beyond their grasp of comprehension. Liskula Cohen and Rosemary Port are two of these people. Liskula Cohen is a socialite (I don’t know what else to call her) who [...]

So…is Liskula Cohen a skank?

If you googled your name and using a standard Google search on the first page was a result from an anonymous blogger claiming you were a skank, would you care? If you did care would you bother to start legal proceedings in an attempt to identify the anonymous blogger? Recently Liskula Cohen who from what [...]
