Atom feed

Where do I begin? Last night while I was trying to find out why my blog was not being indexed by Google I discovered that my atom feed was not working properly. I have had my feed enabled on my blog ever since Google AKA blogger had that built in. Anyway, after researching this I asked my hubby how that could have happened as I have never messed with the feed until last night. All this time I have been pinging weblogs.com but, my feed was not correct. This should have been a simple fix as much as I am in the settings area of my blog I should have been able to figure this out. I wound up spending hours on this problem that took me 10 minutes to fix of course with help from my hubby. When I started blogging there were not rss or atom feeds available. Before Google built that in if you wanted an rss or atom feed you had to put a little piece of code on your blog. I did not want to bother with that as I knew nothing about html. I still do not know a lot about html but, with some work I am able to do things with the template without having to ask for help.

Another company has entered the paid to blog community it is called Link From Blog. I have always liked the idea of paid blogging. Link from blog is similar to other paid blogging companies in that you bid for jobs and the advertisers will look at the bids and determine who they want to write the reviews.

Blog Anniversary Milestone

   It is hard to believe that I have had this blog for the last 7 years.   I never thought that I would continue to do it for this long.    I have taken breaks here and there but I always come back and post something.   Sometimes it is a few weeks or months.   I have gone as long as a year but I always come back.   Looking through my archives I found how short my posts were and how few and far between they are in some spots as well.  When my husband and I set up our blogs all those years ago not many people knew what blogs were.   Now everyone has one.   Okay, well maybe not everyone my parents do not have one nor do I see either of them getting one anytime soon.  It is amazing to see what people blog about.   I read a long list of blogs religiously but have never been able to blog what I would call consistently.   As much as I enjoy it it seems a lot of people get tired of...

Technology

Well where do I begin with this one.   It seems like technology has not been my friend this week.  I wanted to make some updates to my handmade jewelry store , but the internet had other things in mind for me.  Yesterday when our internet connection seemed to be working in my favor I set out to do the updates that I mentioned.   Well that did not happen.  The network storage device that we have for backup was not accessible all day long.  Last night after Art woke up he finally got the device working again.   Needless to say we just backed up the device with a portable usb hard drive.  I didn�t know everything had to be so redundant.  So this morning was spent making updates to my site and getting blog going for my handmade jewelry store.  Everything store related will be posted here.    I will occasionally mention it on this one but any changes I make or products I add will be posted on my jewelry blog.
