This is a very in-depth study on the impact of Social Media across the globe. The statistics are amazing. It seems as though video and personal blogging is leading the way, and the Asia-Pacific region is showing the most growth.

The study is segmented by Waves in which each segment signifies a number of survey submissions within a single month a year. Wave 1 included 15 countries, 7,500 users and was completed in September 2005. Wave 2 included 21 countries, 10,000 users and was completed in June 2007. Wave 3 included 29 countries, 17,000 users and was completed in March 2008. Though in my opinion the sample sizes seem small the validity of the data appears legit.

Granted my daughter Madeline Grace is only 2 weeks and 2 days old, I’ve already come to rely heavily on my iPhone for parenting. Here’s a brief list of tasks accomplished thus far:

1. Text friends notifying them of Madeline’s arrival.
2. Call family notifying them of Madeline’s arrival.
3. Email friends and family pictures of Maddie.
4. Sooth a fussy Maddie with Bob Marley and DMB.
5. Show off pictures of Maddie.
6. Show off our family website.
7. Monitor feeding times
8. Check the weather to see if it’s ok to take Maddie for a walk.
9. Get directions to the pediatrician.
10. Call my new daughter.

So I was bored around 4am and decided to build out a custom error page for my blog…

Here is the script I used for the typing effect.

If you want a custom 404 error page on your Wordpress blog, simply edit the 404.php page in your theme.
Typically found here:
wp-content/themes/(your active theme)/404.php

Here are some funny 404 pages that inspired me:
