What I Learned From 2008
I have to hand it to blogging friend and fellow SOBCon 2008 alumni Robert Hruzek of Middle Zone Musings. His monthly What I Learned From… series morphed into a fantastic display of blogging talent from around the web in January of this year.
Robert opened his blog to anyone interested in sharing a list of [...]
FeedBurner-Google Migration Complete
This was a frustrating experience, but in the end worked out like it should. I have to admit that the actual migration by FeedBurner to using my Google account went well, and the existing feeds redirected to the new FeedBurner/Google domain that handles them.
The biggest issues for me were the longer-than-expected reader-count anomaly, and the [...]
Moved FeedBurner Feeds
Well, I finally got around to moving my FeedBurner account to my Google account. Not sure if I did something wrong, or if I just need to wait a few days. It seems that I can’t see any items in my feed now, as I monitor it in Google Reader.
Has anyone else done this and [...]
5 Things – Happiness
Like Jon Swanson, I’m not really big on memes, but since the 5-Things meme is a long standing blogging tradition, who am I to refuse? So in his 25 Things post, Jon tagged me with “Five Happiness Reasons”, I’ll bite and hand off to another couple bloggers.
Here are my items for the “5 Things” [...]
Mobile again…
It’s been awhile, but I’m using my mobile kit again for blogging. This is made up primarily of my old T-Mobile MDA, ThinkOutside Bluetooth Keyboard and Mouse.
We’re off to find adventure in the afternoon in front of us, be it large or small. I’ll have to take a picture of the entire kit later, but [...]
Take my post ideas. Please!
Sometimes I spend time just generating ideas for blog posts, and they make it into this list or that notebook (though you couldn’t tell by my current lack of posts ;). While I can’t claim this idea is original, I do indeed want to share this list – I’ll probably not use them in the [...]
Short And Sweet
About a year and a half ago, I started experimenting with the Aside feature of WordPress, and thought it was neat. While I didn’t like the way they lacked titles, I did like how they were supposed to be concise and to the point.
What came out of it for me was a growing series [...]
Why local events rock
Events are fun. Events are just meetups with a bit of structure. As I’ve been hosting social media breakfasts here in Minneapolis & St. Paul, I’ve been thinking a bit about what makes these types of events worth attending, what makes them special.
It’s really the people that attend. Folks from many different industries, genres, interests, [...]
Good things, good habits, in moderation
So it’s been a great day here in Minneapolis this Friday. Got a chance to know a few folks from the office better - that’s a good thing. Got to spend a nice evening as a family this evening - that’s a good thing. Made myself write a little bit - and that too is [...]
Back to basics this weekend
Time for some basic blogging & regrouping this weekend. I’ve been pressing hard on work and letting my writing slide, and this just won’t do. I don’t know what I’ll be writing about in the next 48 hours, but I know that I’m going to go back to the basics of blogging for me.
I guess [...]
