Thanks Lockergnome

ByMike McBride Reading Time: 1 minute

Wow, there’s nothing like getting to work in the morning, grabbing a cup of coffee (the free crappy office stuff, but, it’s free and unlimited!) and seeing that you’ve already had over 300 hits to the blog today. (And it’s only 8:30AM) It was quite a nice surprise, as was the source of all those hits, Lockergnome Windows Daily . Thanks Chris, for the mention, and the kind words.

Have I mentioned what a great bunch of newsletters the LockerGnome folks put out? 🙂

I hope some of those new viewers will come back and regurlarly contribute to the discussions. I look forward to the comments!

    If you aren’t yet that dedicated to RSS feeds, this may be a super-easy way to get started. It’s free, you don’t even need an account, the data is stored in your browser, or you can create a free account and sync the data across your devices. 

  • Quick Thought – Link Requests

    ByMike McBride Reading Time: 1 minute

    So, I’ve seen a recent uptick in the number of emails I get stating that my post “XX” was great, and they think I should also link their related post. 1. 85-90% of the time, their post isn’t actually related. 2. 100% of the time, they’ve never linked to, or shared, anything I’ve written. So…

    Linked – Read more blogs

    ByMike McBride Reading Time: 1 minute

    “Good blogs aren’t focused on the vapid race for clicks that other forms of social media encourage. Instead, they patiently inform and challenge, using your time with respect. Here’s the thing: Google doesn’t want you to read blogs. They shut down their RSS reader and they’re dumping many blog subscriptions into the gmail promo folder,…

  • Revue Newsletter Option

    ByMike McBride Reading Time: 1 minute

    What I have been experimenting with, and which might interest some of you, is the new email newsletter tool that Twitter has made available, called Revue. It’s a little more hands-on than the current newsletter, so while I plan to send it out every Friday, I can’t swear to you that will always happen. On the other hand, I get to add some more stuff to this newsletter because it’s more hands-on. So I can pull in some links from other sources, drop in some text, etc. In essence, I’ll be experimenting with it, but you can expect that the goal will remain the goal I’ve always had with my blog, writing, and sharing interesting things that might help you out with technology, work, etc. 

    You can subscribe, and take a peek at some of my recent experimental issues over at my Revue profile. I hope you’ll consider subscribing, and sharing with your friends if you find it useful!

    New Facebook Feature – Interest Lists?

    ByMike McBride Reading Time: 1 minute

    I’ll be honest, I just saw this tonight, and had no idea it was there previously, but as an interesting follow up to my recent experiment with how many fans of my page are actually seeing the posts made there, I discovered that Facebook has a new option when you mouse over the “Like” button,…

  • Good Resource for WordPress Database Management

    ByMike McBride Reading Time: 1 minute

    Found this article the other day, and as I read through it, I discovered that even for a WordPress oldhead like me, there were some good reminders on using PHPMyAdmin to get database backups quickly, restore backups and more importantly a hood reminder about occasionally going and optimizing the database tables. Hadn’t done that in…
