http://sites.korat.info/2013/07/vandalizing-wiki.html
Info and opinion about the social web-life of foreigners in Nakhon Ratchasima, the gate to Northeast-Thailand. Friday, July 12, 2013. A wiki is a web application which allows people to add, modify, or delete content in a collaborative environment, usually using a simplified markup language or a rich-text editor." (Encyclopedia Brittanica). He must have overlooked that his IP address was displayed together with the changes he had made, that apart from his already known style, vocabulary and sick behavior ...

Korat.Asia: November 2013
http://www.korat.asia/2013_11_01_archive.html
Another view from Nakhon Ratchasima. Monday, November 25, 2013. The pennies are crawling in (Advertisements 4). Or is it, that my readers are just not interested in ads? Lots of things to consider: if my site hasn't propagated well, if I failed in making it known, I can hardly blame the ad agency for not paying what isn't coming forth: the targeted audience! I will get to reports with particular agencies sometime in the future, it's still to early for valid conclusions about good or bad. I'm still experi...

Korat.Asia: Who is the audience, who reads this blog?
http://www.korat.asia/2013/07/who-is-audience-who-reads-this-blog.html
Another view from Nakhon Ratchasima. Monday, July 29, 2013. Who is the audience, who reads this blog? This very new blog for example had pageviews in the last week: 414 from the US, 91 from Thailand (including me working on the blog), 52 from India, 39 from China, 16 from France, etc. That shows that my audience is mainly in the US at present. This can change anytime, therefore continued monitoring is necessary. The most looked up article is Rather living in Korat than Pattaya or Phuket. Dear Reader, ...

Another view from Nakhon Ratchasima. Saturday, October 19, 2013. Expat Life in Korat. Once in a while the topic of a functioning expat community in Korat gets discussed, whether there is a community of expats in downtown Korat to integrate into. Just a few days ago somebody posted on the ThaiVisa forum:. If you're desperate for social contacts to other expats, you'll really have to work hard to find the right people and environment.

Korat.Asia: February 2014
http://www.korat.asia/2014_02_01_archive.html
Another view from Nakhon Ratchasima. Thursday, February 6, 2014. Oops, Webhost down! Having an alternative source of information for the members and readers of your forums running on another webhost, that is not likely to break down at the same time is always a good thing. There you can inform about the problems and what you might do to solve them, like setting up an alternative at another host etc. And with the size of your site also the difficulty grew to keep everything backed up, like attachments etc.

Korat.Asia: Advertisements (vol. 3)
http://www.korat.asia/2013/11/advertisements-vol-3.html
Another view from Nakhon Ratchasima. Wednesday, November 20, 2013. Advertisements (vol. 3). Even if the ad agencies promise their ads to be contextual, i.e. placed on the occurrence of keywords used in the text of your website and other targeting factors, hardly any of those less known agencies was able to match it to an acceptable degree. So, I guess the advertising market for small bloggers is still confined to the huge companies Google and Yahoo/Bing. But beware! Wednesday, November 20, 2013. Dear Rea...

Korat.Asia: Farang Friends or Neighbors
http://www.korat.asia/2013/07/farang-friends-or-neighbors.html
Another view from Nakhon Ratchasima. Tuesday, July 23, 2013. Farang Friends or Neighbors. Good Friends Are Hard To Come By" is far more valid in Isaan and Korat than anywhere else. That is for quite a few reasons:. Most farangs settling in Korat are near or past retirement age with a strong character already unable to adapt to changed or changing situations so easily, feeling now they were at the command of others, therefore not quite happy to be here. And be as independent and self-reliant as possible&#...

Info and opinion about the social web-life of foreigners in Nakhon Ratchasima, the gate to Northeast-Thailand. Sunday, July 20, 2014. The Changing Farang Web of Korat. How can this information collected by various people in their personal blogs be kept? By collecting it in forums seems to me the most promising way.

Info and opinion about the social web-life of foreigners in Nakhon Ratchasima, the gate to Northeast-Thailand. Tuesday, October 1, 2013. Despicable behavior from a Korat forum Administrator. I have sent an email to that admin firmly stating to delete my account and all posts I have made or associated with me to be deleted. I won't hold my breath as I have not received a response yet and I don't expect one either. Labels: Korat Internet Gossip. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). A wiki is a web application which...
