The death of two bloggers was said to be caused by an obsession with updating their websites. Sometimes I have this urged to blog when I have an idea, but my obsession is mainly computer and Internet. I am quite addicted to computer and I have no idea why. As a blogger myself, I would definately love to know everything and blog everything first hand. This is because we know that the first who know the knowledge would actually gain some exposure.

There is actually no official diagnosis to link the death to blogging but it is reported that a lot of bloggers are claiming that they have lose/gain weight, sleep disorders, exhaustion or any other symptoms.

Telegraph UK reported as follows:-
Fatal heart attacks suffered by Russell Shaw, 60, and Marc Orchant, 50 – two prolific technology bloggers – as well as the case of another, Om Malik, 41, who survived a cardiac arrest in December, were cited by The New York Times.

More detail news about the death of this 2 bloggers could be obtained at NY Times.

Are you exhausted? Do you have sleep disorders? Are you a Blog Addict?

I know to some extent that I am!

Edrei actually commented in my upgrading wordpress post with this new plugin which gives a better and easier navigation panel for this new WordPress 2.5. It actually look pretty decent and the layout of it is very friendly. I am sure that some people is confused with the latest wordpress admin theme, as the description of the tabs has changed and the placement of the tabs function is moved.

Since I have to adapt to this new changes, I guess there is no harm trying out his words and I actually find it pretty clean and nice to use this. It is just like any other plugin whereby you upload into wp-plugins and activate it. This is the very first time I had changed my WordPress Admin Theme.

Here is a screenshot of it while I am writing this post. I like the panel and the color of this WordPress Admin Theme. All control panels gathered together at the left panel is a great idea, it is easy and fast to navigate around.

Download and try Fluency Admin Theme here.

I still have not solve my uploading picture issue as I am unable to do a proportional resizing with this new wordpress. Bare with me while I find another plugin for picture resizing.

Finally I have upgraded to wordpress 2.5 after seeing much changes in the admin theme. I find it a little hard to navigate as things are not in the same old position. But this is what bloggers have to do and keep updated.

Overall, I only have a problem with the uploading of pictures as it seems like my flexible upload is not working. There is no mention of resizing the width of picture, unless I edit them unproportionally. Take a look at the new dashboard. It is actually the same but some of the tab name has changes (ie “Presentation to Design”).

This is one of the best function so far, “One Click Update”. It will actually download them and update on your behalf. Cool isn’t it? It just makes us lazier.

This is a new function which I have encounter with this Forte WordPress Theme, This admin panel is actually very useful for navigation and only admin who are signed-in will have this functions available for them.

It is actually the same with the admin panel you have on your wp-admin, but this make your task much faster and easier. Although WordPress 2.5 may have difference in the name of the Navigation, the function remains the same.

This is how it looks like when I am logged-on into my admin panel, and you could see my a shortcut for Dashboard, Write, Blogroll, Manage, Comments, Presentation, Plugins, Users, Option, Style and Logout.

I have edited slightly, the style function have been removed because it does not work with some themes. Also, the arrangement is previously dependent on a CSS files, since it is not viewable by visitor, there is not much need for it to look beautiful rather it is important for the navigation to be easy.

Here is an example which I have tried on my other blog.

Download the WordPress Admin Navigation Panel. 

From the Internet Marketing Boot Camp, I have more than 500 eBooks which some could be re-sold and some could be given out free. There is too many to be read, and I rarely finish any book especially eBook which tends to be harder to read. I like those short eBooks which are filled with good information.

Since this Boot Camp, I have try to sell two items, one ebook (Freelance Riches) and Awesome Popup bundled together with Impat Popup (this is going very cheap). I am learning how I could resell eBooks and scripts to make money online.

This two item are actually pretty good and promoted by well known bloggers, therefore, I picked to start with them. But because this is my entry point and selling even a single book will make me motivated, I decided to go cheap, yes, it is cheaper than those well know blogger selling them.

Remember to subscribe to my feed via email, and I will giving some of them out for free.
