New Blogger

So the new version of Blogger came out of Beta yesterday. Last night was the first chance I’ve been giving to make the switch, I had been kept away from the beta, I assume because of the size of this blog. In fact, the act of moving it was an overnight project, apparently. 🙂

Anyway, look for some new stuff over the next few days as I figure out how to implement a few things. I like the idea of having labels and comment feeds. Even though most of the template stuff doesn’t work for FTP (aka non-Blogspot hosted) blogs, I’m still excited to take this sucker out for some test driving.

    So Long Bloglines

    I can’t say that I’m surprised by the announcement that Bloglines will be shutting down. Once upon a time, the service was one of the first to offer a web-based RSS reader, as opposed to a local client that polled RSS feeds for updates. As someone who uses quite a number of machines, that was…

  • Want to Start a Blog in 2021?

    I’ll admit that I’m a bit biased on the subject of blogging, obviously. I find it an incredible way to continue learning through the research and writing that I do on my various blogs, and it’s also a great way to share information and attempt to educate folks who happen to come across the sites, no matter how small, or large, the audience is. Well, if you’re curious about how to start a blog using Wordpress, they’ve got you covered with a new release this month.
