I plan to do a piece on spindoctoring at some point, but something was linked to me that fired up my urge to write this piece first.

Small changes behind the scenes
Before my friends decided they could no longer stand the constant spam of my posts all across my G+ feed, I've created an "official" profile etc with its own G+. This also allows me to actually see individuals following *this blog* rather than just people I know generally.
To add to this, I've also created a facebook page for those who prefer to get their updates that way.

Gambling Isk
When I first started playing there wasn't really any "non game" ways of earning isk as far as I knew. I got introduced to EOH which was playing texas holdem for isk, and rapidly discovered I was terrible at poker.
Then came Somer Blink, which many of the richer eve players had a lot of success with, my personal experience with such micro-lottery sites however was that it was more often than not the rich people who won the big prizes, when there's 10 tickets your average low level gambler could only buy 1 or 2 tickets, but the rich could buy 5-6 tickets,
Somer recently got shut down for RMT reasons and other such drama, and from the ashes has risen several other competitors who may have been around before but were largely dwarfed by the monster that was Somer.
Here's 2 options I've found.

Sovereignty Wars, oh how I hate thee
I'm writing this post whilst I'm on a fleet fulfilling an important objective. The interface to write it is full screen, so I can't see my eve client. I've wandered away from the screen and made a cup of coffee, I've taken the bins out, I've been to check that the program I set on tivo is recorded, and I've got myself some biscuits. I've even had time to go to the bathroom (I bet you really wanted to know that).
I've done all of this *whilst* fulfilling this important objective! Why you ask?

Phoebe changing the world as we know it
I want you to take a moment and think back to the classic image from a godzilla movie.
Godzilla, stomping his way through tokyo, appears around a skyscraper, the camera pans down to the civillians on the street, who all freeze, looking up at him in terror, the scream builds and thousands start running like maniacs down the road shrieking and hollaring at the top of their lungs.
This is the image I get in my head every time there's talk of Phoebe's capital jump changes.
