Event tracking on my WebSite with Google Analytics

I needed to track an specific event on my website, and when I configured the conversions on GA, the results was null. I supposed there was a problem with the capture of that specific event in GA, because I noticed there were already a lot of visitors and a lot of interaction with that specific button but I haven't had any results.
Anyways, I went into the GA developers documentation, and here is what I found:

I needed to set the variables of the event inside the template (file) where I sited the google analytics tracking code, with these parameters:
ga('send', 'event', 'button', 'click', 'nav buttons', 4);
where
  • button is the category
  • click is the action
  • nav buttons is the label
  • 4 is the value
to be more specific (it could happen you have to buttons with the same type of interaction), then you can set the web page

ga('send', 'event', 'category', 'action', {'page': '/my-new-page'});
There are other things you can do, but this was good enough for me.

This is the link I used

Installing Skype on Ubuntu 13.10

I recently upgraded my system from 13.04 to 13.10 and I lost plenty of stuff I have installed so patiently... So, I had to re-install them.

For Skype, all I did was finding the link to download the package and install it. Pretty simple, so here it goes:

wget -c skype.deb http://download.skype.com/linux/skype-ubuntu-precise_4.2.0.13-1_i386.deb -O skype.deb
sudo dpkg -i skype.deb 
sudo apt-get -f install
And voila! That was it. It should work for earlier versions of Ubuntu as well.
