Fact of the day - More facts, less Videos on the blog
October 29, 2007 on 3:00 pm | In My Facts | No CommentsI came across some opinions that i was making a mistake adding Video links with to movies on youtube and i should focus more on the basic topic which is Daily facts, amusing and fun facts daily. Well i’ve figured that a couple video facts a week won’t hurt and there’s definetly no harm in adding some funny images as well. Daily facts will stay on its course and maintain the website as a database of all sorts of facts at all times and i think this should be appreciated.
I think and i hope that you all enjoy coming around and reading the daily facts we provide but still we are short of ideas how to improve this blog and make it better for you. If you have any ideas post comments with them and we will be more than happy to improve Daily Facts for the better. Thank you for your time.
