MyBlogLog Uses Tables?

January 29th, 2007  |  Published in Uncategorized

Gio and I talked about MyBlogLog at BarCampDallas3.  Like Giovanni — I think it’s a great idea.  Afterall — it’s all about Ego Gratification.  Tonight I finally got around to signing up for MyBlogLog — and quickly went in search of blogs who are using this widget — just to see my name and picture show up in their recent readers list.  Then — I thought why not add it to the sidebar of my own blog?

Like most widgets, MyBlogLog has a nifty code generator.  Unfortunately the code generated by the JavaScript is a mess — I mean tables and everything.  After adding MyBlogLog to my sidebar I did a quick page validation — 20 ERRORS.  Completely unacceptable.  I promptly removed MyBlogLog — and started writing this post.

MyBlogLog also has a WordPress Widget that you can download if you are using WP Widgets in your sidebar.  I haven’t tried this yet — so I don’t know what kind of code it generates — I’ll probably give it a try later this week and let you know whether it’s up to snuff.

I Have Blogger's Block
I was chatting with my friend Laura Mayes tonight - explaining how I have Blogger’s Block.  Tomorrow I head to San Francisco - and I’ve already stocked up on awesome reading materials for the plane - including the Complete Works of Jane Austen and Katharine Hepburn’s Autobiography.  Laura’s advice:

The best way to get out of a block is to read good writing.

And to go to Northern California.

 

Check. And Check.

 

Sometimes life just works out.

Link Policy

My personal link policy is as follows - I only link to the blogs of people I actually know in real life (with the exception of the "Other Erica's" section). I think when you add someone to your blogroll there should be real meaning attached. Most of the people I link to are not only acquaintances - but folks I am lucky enough to call my friends.
