New Blog to keep an eye on!!!

My journalist friend, Jackie has taken the plunge and joined the internet masses by starting a blog. She's a hilarious writer (no pressure) and has a wonderful way of seeing the world.

Back In The Saddle Again

It's been over a year since my last posting. Not for lack of ideas, just for lack of initiative. :) There are three other blogs I maintain... each with its own flavor and emphasis. As in most things, all of the blogs sort of overlap on various subjects.

This one holds a place in my heart because it was the first blog I ever started. I learned a lot about blogs here. In the past, this blog has tended to be more political in nature. That will not be the main focus but you can bet, political issues will be commented upon.

I'm going to give this blog 30 days to begin to form a personality. On this blog, there will be a post for every day of those 30 days.

Seeya tomorrow.

HouseCleaning

I've been doing a little housecleaning. By that I mean I've been changing the look and feel of this blog.

I got tired of the darker colors even though they looked kinda forestry, so I made the blog white. Added a voting widget, put the archives in a drop down menu, and added a news scrolling widget at the bottom. I may remove this last one because it just doesn't function the way I would like.

There's a possibility that I may add Snap, which is a link preview, but I'll see how this present configuration works first.

Oh, I also changed my kicker for the blog title to "the invisible blog" from something like "daily views and observations".

The last thing I need to do is add a counter. I used to have a counter for this page, but somewhere along the way, while changing templates, I lost it. I'll need to reinstall it.

new blog

Whispers is shaping up. It's still not ready for prime time, but it's getting there.

learning trackbacks

So, apparently, trackbacks and comments both have to be moderated unless that is changed. It appears the same is true for trackbacks on TypePad. The trackbacks here on Blogger are called something else, and I believe it is a closed system... that is, you can only trackback on other Blogger sites.
