(What is it about the number 7? Apparently, 10 items is too many and with 5 we feel cheated. So I’ve found a happy medium with 7 and a half in this list.)
I am not going to name names, but when surfing blogs there are some things that make my cursor head straight for the […]
So we are well into August and I have not shared my July results for the Minx network. If you are not interested in such data then fine, go play whack the penguin and I’ll see you tomorrow. (My best = 321.)
Traffic
Rich Minx traffic was… slightly down (sob) because there were no big Stumbles. And […]
I’m awake early again, looking out at a beautiful pink-orange sunrise and planning the next steps in my life while eating Weetbix and Marmite* (not together) and browsing my RSS updates. I am doing all this because I can multi-task although Timothy Ferriss calls multitasking a great way to disguise doing nothing.

What in the name of blogging is MyBlogLog?
MyBlogLog is a social networking community for bloggers. You create a profile, add your site(s) which then have their own communities, add the special widget to your site’s sidebar and then hey presto, you’re in!

Here are some quotes I found interesting:

Today I have a question for my readers, because I’m thinking hard about which direction to take this blog. I have my own ideas but would love your feedback too. If you’re familiar with my blog, please answer the poll below.
If you’re unsure about what a ‘Blogging’ post or ‘Money’ post involves, here are some […]
Have you lost that bloggin’ feeling? Has Dr Evil, aka apathy, threatened to swipe your blogging mojo?
Problogger has just announced an unofficial writing project called Rediscovering Your Blog Groove, a gentle push to pull our socks up and have fun blogging again.
This comes at a good time because you can almost hear the crickets in […]
