Bloggiesta To Do List

So, today isn't going to be a productive day for me with Bloggiesta but I'll have more time on Saturday and Sunday...hopefully.  My tiny little plans are...

1 Clean up my labels. I actually put labels on all my posts LAST time for the very first time but I have way too many, I need to clean, clean, clean!  Done! Oh my heck, blogger! Find an easier way to delete labels!
2 Go through my Goodreads TBR list and delete books I no longer think I'll be reading. There's over 600 books on it! Done! Now there's 580 something. Not a huge improvement, but still.

3 I want to learn more about this Google Reader's Next button. :)
Done! Now let's see if I actually use it.

4 Write a Review policy. Done. It looks like crap and is ridiculously unprofessional but oh well.

5 Figure out what Widget may or may not be causing my comment issues. Huzzah! I think my background was causing the commenting problem. Let me know if you're still having trouble commenting...on Twitter if the comment isn't working. ;)

6 And check out all the amazing mini challenges and see about maybe learning a thing or two.


Yeah, not very lofty goals, I  know, but I have so little time! :(

Bloggiesta is hosted by There's A Book and It's All About Books. You're welcome to join still.

Bloggiesta

Fine! I'll sign up! :) I have been the laziest person ever since starting a job and procrastinating up a storm but I figure laziness isn't an excuse for sitting on my butt in front of a computer and trying to spiff up the blog, you know?

So, if you aren't away of what Bloggiesta is you only need go to to There's a Book and see and maybe sign up yourself. It's always fun and you learn tons about blogging. Here's what you can expect.

to spend time that weekend (as much or as little as your schedule allows) working on your blog

to create a to do list to share on your blog and link up with other participants

to hopefully participant in several mini challenges and learn something new

to connect with other participants through blog hopping or twitter

to make new blogging friends!

to come away at the end of the three days with a spiffed up blog!

Wish me luck!

Blog Change Input Needed

Well, as it's bloggiesta weekend, I've made a few changes and am working on more. That's where you come in. I have some questions and I'd REALLY love your input. 

1 Do you care that I changed my layout?

2 How often do you click on a link within. Those little, you might like this, buttons at the bottom of each post? I'm considering getting rid of them. 

3 And last but not least, are my review posts as boring as I think they are? I've been trying to be more professional by saying what I like and dislike but they seem so boring. What do you think? 

4 So, since I changed my layout Google Chrome won't let me comment. I can on Firefox, though. Anyone know what the heck happened? 

Thanks for your help, guys! Have a great weekend! OLE! 

Bloggiesta, I Guess!

Alright, alright! I'm going to sign up for this fun event hosted by Suey and Danielle. I've hesitated because I wasn't sure I'd really be able to donate any time to it this weekend, however, there are things I've been wanting to do around my blog to spiff it up so eventually here's what I'd like to do.

1 Silly me! I never bothered adding labels to my posts. Sigh! It's going to be a long boring task but I'm going to do it.

2 I think it's time to mess with my template again...maybe.

3 I've been trying to add some of those nice tabs at the top of my blog to get organized and I'd like to finish that project.

So, yeah, that's about all I'm committing to right now. I'm excited to visit everyone's blogs and make new friends and learn some stuff. I'm woefully ignorant when it comes to a lot of it!
