A Blogger’s Progress

TESTING, TESTING

Posted in WordPress Searches, WordPress Themes by thenaturalist on November 26, 2006

Today I’m doing one of the stupidest things I’ve ever done AND wasting time that I do not have to waste. I am going to look closely at ALL of the WordPress templates to see which have the following options: CUSTOM HEADER, FULL TEXT SEARCH, EDIT FROM BLOG, WIDE TEXT, and LEGIBLE PRINT.

To run the SEARCH TEST, I need a few entries with over five lines. I think one of my blog entries is already that long, and maybe one of my non-profit entries too. And just to be sure I need to type a few more lines for this entry. Why am I doing this? I am trying to create numerous different blogs, and I want to know which templates might be suitable for which blogs. In fact, I just thought up a new blog on PHENOLOGY. We’ll see….

PROGRESS?

I decided to delete 2 Word Press blogs and 1 Blogger blog. Now will I be able to focus on the important ones?

WHERE I’M STARTING

Posted in Blog Count by thenaturalist on November 21, 2006

As of today I have 14 blogs with Blogger, 2 with JournalSpace, and now 6 with Word Press. I guess I’m kind of like a kitten on the keys: if I have enough blogs going maybe I’ll surprise myself by saying something that matters? Who knows? Who cares? There’s apparently enough space in cyberspace for me to keep dancing around on these keys and maybe randomly, statistically I’ll create something that pleases me. We’ll see….
