I made some changes in my blog. I'mmabout to exceed my bandwidth quota!

Due to heavy traffic, my blog service provider has warned me to take it easy with the blogging and stuff or else I'll run out of bandwidth in a few days and sooner or later, my blog will be offline until the start of February. I can't afford that to happen. So here are some changes. I don't know if I'd permanently keep my blog this way or until February comes.. We'll see.

• Made my latest entries display in summary mode. You now need to click the entries here on the main page to read them in full version.
• Deleted Latest Digg and Reddit entries. Especially Reddit, my god. People now are getting too excited with posting, huh?
• Deleted the linkblog navigation widget thingy. It's pretty useless because I have a site map here.
  
• Deleted the Progress bar for fixing the blog tags. I guess I just used that before because I was curious but it's pretty useless too!
• Lessened the number of latest entries for linkblogs, Blip videos, Multiply and LiveJournal. These are all deleted.
• Edited the blog RSS feed. Now you can only see the summary, and no more linkblogs. But if you would like to subscribe to the linkblog RSS feed, you can. There's a separate feed for it.

Off-topic. I found someone who has the same name as me: "Jamie Elaine." WEIRD!!!! Anyway, she's my friend now. Hehe.

ETA: I deleted stuff again. The traffic is so heavy, uhm I don't know if I should be happy or not.

• Deleted the Categories widget.
• Deleted Most Popular Tags.
• Lessened number of linkblogs shown.
• Deleted the Shoutbox. (I'll bring this back soon.)
• Deleted Blog History widget. (I might bring this back now. Let me see.)
  
• Deleted Most Popular Tags

AND THE MOST DESPERATE MEASURE OF ALL: I deleted my 2003 and 2004 archives. 2005 archives are next. Gawd, I never thought my blog could get this big. It's like a big chunk of my life is here on the Internet. @_@ Well it's 2008, time to remove them, I guess. Argh.

Update:

Now I've removed most of my entries from the year 2003 to 2007, well half of 2007. I've left a few blogs for each year, some which were popular (I have no idea why) and some I kept online just because. God, I guess this is when exporting my blog to PDF is now handy. I can download my old blogs and keep them in my hard drive.
