Blogging Part 5: Viewing
As I sit here watching my WordPress follower number steadily approach the big four-oh-oh, I’m thinking of things that I’ve done and can’t help but wonder if others do it too. One of my lazy habits for a long time was to go to the Readers menu and go through all my followers blog posts…. Read More ›
Best Moment Award
I owe a heartfelt thank you to Sandra over at quirkybooks who nominated me based on my blog post – 50,000 Plus! Thanks Guys. This is the first time I’ve received this award and I am, to put it plainly, chuffed to bits (in American English that means damned happy). So again, Sandra, thanks! I also… Read More ›
I’m a Versatile Blogger…Again!
Just when I thought I was through with dodging the award bullets, I got “zinged” with another one from my good friend Marilyn over at Serendipity. She has given me the Versatile Blogger award! If you haven’t checked out her great blog, stop reading this and head on over via the link above. She has… Read More ›
50,000 Plus! Thanks Guys!
Literally the day after I posted about my 1 year anniversary on WordPress, I passed the 50 thousand mark. To add to the excitement of that landmark, I also got 673 views yesterday which obviously helped to move my view totals up. While still surfing this wave of excitement, I thought I’d do a short… Read More ›
Happy One Year Anniversary to My WordPress Blog!
It has taken me all day to decide on what to write after WordPress told me of my one year anniversary this morning. I will admit a certain amount of astonishment. I thought I’d been with WordPress much longer than a year. But after looking at my old posts and remembering that a goodly number… Read More ›
The Dragon’s Loyalty Award: Mouthwash Not Required
When I first saw that Marilyn over at Serendipity had graced me with this award, my first thought was, “Dragon’s breath?” But, no, it turns out that this “new” award is an amalgamation of the Versatile Blogger Award and the Very Inspiring Blogger Award. Katrina Perkins came up with this wonderful idea and hence it is she who… Read More ›
Blogging Part 3: Comment Etiquette
I find myself hopping back on my soapbox this morning so I can pontificate about blogging and comments. Well, specifically about comments left on blogs and a sort of code of etiquette. A long time ago, in a land far away, I had another blogging site (I actually still do, as apparently you can be inactive… Read More ›
BLOGGER’S TAG!! “SMACK!” You’re IT…
I’ve never done a bloggers tag before, so I’ve got to thank Kim over at Tranquil Dreams for reaching out and smacking me with a tag. Thanks Kim! She’s got a great blog going over there and just recently put up a recipe for yummy Banana Cake if you haven’t made her acquaintance yet, click… Read More ›
What is so Great about Reddit?
When I first started blogging on WordPress, I found to my delight that they had widgets that allowed you to share things to reddit. I was aware of this website through my daughter’s work on Video Games Blogger. It is used by quite a few games channels and websites as a means to publicize their… Read More ›
Taking Stock
I started blogging on WordPress on the 21st of March 2012. I had been blogging on two other sites the previous year and felt I needed a change. WordPress had a lot to offer a novice like me, easy access to images that could be related to my blog and the ability to do “pingbacks”… Read More ›
