I play Zelda:Ocarina of Time at vacant airports. Where do YOU replicate your childhood?

Hey guys! Quick note to say I have returned! And my travelling adventures and experience will be shared with you once more! Today's topic, random places you have gamed or nostalgia'ed! If you saw my post about 'How to prepare your laptop for a lack of internet' which can be found here: http://studentaroundtheworld.blogspot.com/2010/09/tips-on-what-to-pack-when-studying.html, then you'll know I have installed Project 64 on my laptop to allow me to nostalgia over N64 games.

These photos were taken at Basel, Switzerland Airport at 5am, and all I can say is, thank god I was playing the Fire Temple, and not the terrifying Forest Temple:

Saving Gorons at Basel Airport 5am

Lack of posting

Just a small post guys to let you know that I'm going to be quite inactive for the next week or two or even more.

Basically I've had to put my adventures and studies on hold for personal reasons which I do not want to post to the internet. My life is extremely difficult right now and I apologise if I seem short or rude with any of you.

In other news, our BlogWave project is coming along nicely, and we have set up a blog for it which you can find HERE.

It includes a STREAM version of the podcast full of tips and guides to make your blog look more professional, but delivered in a light hearted manner.

SO please head on over and follow that site if you're interested in what myself, Snickel Sox and Frosty are doing.

Definitely go check those guys out. They've worked incredible hard and deserve a follow or view as they've worked to bring YOU guys the tips!

Thanks in advance.

BlogWave Podcast is up!

Ok for those of you who may have missed my last post and are asking "What is exactly is BlogWave and all these great blogging tips you talk about," well you guys need to visit http://studentaroundtheworld.blogspot.com/2010/11/blogwave-huge-new-blogging-project.html to read more about what BlogWave is and how it can help you. For those that are already aware of what us dedicated and legitimate bloggers are doing, then continue reading!



OK first things first, if you're interested in great blogging tips and guides, cool gadgets or widgets, or just want to make your blog look more professional without trawling through thousand's of internet pages, then this Blogger podcast is for you! If you're a legitimate blogger and dedicated, and enjoy what you're doing, then PLEASE, I URGE you, to join our Twitter page here:

http://twitter.com/#!/BlogWavenet

or our Facebook page here:

http://www.facebook.com/pages/BlogWave/163481183673557


This way you'll be able to share the best blog tips as soon as each podcast comes out!

Onto the podcast itself:

The podcast takes just a few minutes to download depending on your internet speed, and comes to just over and hour and a half long. We cover a wide variety of topics that you can all benefit from and we try to deliver them in a light hearted, banter type of way.

Here's RorschachRedemption 's review on it:

I just listened to the whole thing, and boy are my arms tired. No wait...

Seriously? It was much much better than I expected, and I think Rats here might have the attention of more creepy octogenarians than he ever thought possible.

Ok, really REALLY serious here: If you blog, then you might want to download this. Keep it up in the background. It's not a bad maiden voyage for these 3. They are pretty easy to listen to, they are not grating on the nerves, and they fill the 90 minutes with a good blend of shenanigans and on topic stuff. The advice (usually from their mistakes!) comes in bits and pieces from their banter; I *did* find myself making a note for later. (It was to check out the popular posts widget!)

Kudos!


So I hope that persuades you guys to download it! Like Rorschach suggested, leave it on in the background, blog and have a few beers and enjoy it!

The file is obviously completely safe and available for download here. Even if you don't plan to listen to it JUST yet, please download it. We put a lot of effort into it and would appreciate it if you downloaded it:

So there it is guys! Leave it on in the background, learn some great tips and give us some feedback! Remember, you can also take part as a guest speaker on the blogcast, just remember to FOLLOW the Twitter page, and LIKE the Facebook page.
