We’ve acquired a new Unemployed Blogger! Maerrakech from Treebound Cat has joined our ranks! I haven’t had a chance to chat/play with him yet due to me being out of town for the last 4 days, but I’m excited that he’s decided to make Unemployed his new home. 
Moar healz!
Alright, so I did some subtle cleaning up around the blog.
I’ve stumbled across a funny little WoW Blog, and thought I’d toss up a link. I’ve always been a fan of the original failblog, and there are certainly some funny little videos and screenshots. Check it out!
Looking through the google search terms that brought people my way, I found a few interesting ones, and a few that I thought I might as well answer, in case someone finds Mend Pet with the same question again!
“where to farm borean leather”
Personally, I love to farm the gorillas in the south/south-east part of Sholazar Basin. Apparently, BigRedKitty has a secret farming spot that he won’t tell anyone about… but I find these Gorillas are good because they are only level 76ish, they are grouped up (ideal for Gorilladin farming), they drop Chilled Meat, and I can keep an eye open for Loque’nahak the Spirit Beast there.
“antisocial hunter blog”
Should I be worried that so many people have been pointed my way using this search term? Ah well. Guess that’s what I get for writing my Upgrades for Anti-social Hunters guide!
“hunter mend pet addon” / “wow addon keep track of mend pet”
One big problem I have with the default UI is that it doesn’t let you keep pet buffs showing all the time – you have to mouse over. So to keep track of Mend Pet, I use unit frames (Xperl for me). You can also get a mod like KHT (Kharthus’s Hunter Timers)
“no money”
Yeah, don’t rub it in. I’m poor.
“ice strikers cloak average cost”
This will of course vary on different servers and at different times, but to buy an [Ice Striker's Cloak] pre-made on the AH right now in Hydraxis, it’ll cost about 600 g.
To buy the mats, it will cost:
Personally, I chose to farm all the mats except for the Eternal Shadow. You can get Eternal Fire pretty easily in Icecrown or Wintergrasp, and if you are a skinner, you may or may not have some Arctic Fur on hand.
“how to mend a giraffe’s back?”
o_O
Dude, this is not something to be googling. If you have a giraffe with a broken back, please do not use the Internet to solve the problem.
“swiftarrow set has no gems”
This is a fact. It as no gems. You can see this as a good thing, if you don’t want to spend the extra gold on gemming. However, it makes the gear less customizable.
“were is the entrance to the oculus”
Did you mean: whereis the entrance to the oculus?
Anyway… first time (and only time, so far) that I ran Oculus, I got really darn lost. So here’s a guide. While on your flying mount, get to the summoning stone, and face toward the instance structure. Go inside. If you’ve been to the Nexus, you’ll know where the entrance to that is, it’s slightly below ground level. Now look up – there is a sort of bridge thingy with a gate and a portal directly above. That is the Oculus!
“fun guild events wow”
What an excellent query. In fact, I just so happen to have an entire series of posts ready to be published on the subject! Just wait for it!
“ice barbed spear vs whale-stick harpoon”
The [Whale-Stick Harpoon] is much better, if you can get your hands on it. Agility, Attack Power, Hit Rating… yep, the Harpoon is pretty nice. But the [Ice-Barbed Spear] is nothing to scoff at until you can get your reputation up to the right level. If you’d like to see a direct comparison, have a look here.
“band of kirin’tor hunter”
Depending on your level of play, I would say the [Band of the Kirin Tor] probably a good investment – however while the price tag may seem to be a intimation that this is the best ring you can find, it’s not. It is only a level 200 ring, so there are a few that are better out there. Here is a quick comparison with some other 200 and 213 level items. Of course, if you are willing to pay extra just for the extra Hearth, then by all means, go ahead!
A large part of my new job involves programming for WordPress, doing plugins and working on themes and such. So I saw it as a productive work day when I spent yesterday researching and downloading new plugins for Mend Pet.
I’d added CommentLuv, Sociable, Top Commentators (Go Rilgon!) a couple Twitter plugins, and one to forward all my feeds to Feedburner.
Oh, I switched to Feedburner. You can find the new feed here, but thanks to my plugin, your old feeds should be automatically redirected!
And I finally jumped on the Twitter train (the new plugins should have been an intimation), you can follow me at http://twitter.com/brajana.
I’m also going to start working on a new theme, because 1 sidebar just isn’t cutting it for me.
