Blog Rolls

Have you tried the fairly new blogging option called blog list? I just did and I love it. Now I can quickly see who has updated and just go to those sites. Brilliant! I don't know why I didn't try it out sooner. (If you are looking for my blog list it is at the bottom of my blog's sidebar--it is very long because so many of you are brilliant.)

Another interesting thing about the blog list option is that it can give you some details about what someone has written before you even get to their site. I found this a bit interesting today because a couple of my favorite blogs showed that they are thinking about Fall. I too was thinking about Fall but had been trying to repress it since, you know, it is still July. I was shopping the other day and saw this totally cute fall outfit that I was totally tempted by but didn't even stop to really check it out because I figured it was far too soon to start thinking about warmer clothes. But now Internet blogs are telling me that it is ok! Must see if I can afford to start Fall shopping now. Bye.

You should try Google Reader. It's a site where you subscribe to all your favorite blogs or RSS feeds and Google Reader updates it automatically for you every 30 seconds or so.

I work in a clothing store-we have had fall clothes out for about three weeks now. So, as far as the retail world is concerned-when it comes to thinking about warmer clothes, we are behind! So, we better get shopping! Ugh-that means I've got to think about back to school clothes for two girls! $$$$$!

I love blogroll too. It took a little bit of effort to set up, but it has made my blogging much more efficient. Inasmuch as blogging and efficiency have anything to do with one another.

This is nice but I don't like how it shows how badly I'm slacking.

Kirk--I've heard about this google reader thing. I'll have to check it out.

Natalie--thanks for the shopping encouragement.

STM--It was your blog roll that convinced me to do mine.

Natalie--Yes it does make stalking much more effective.

Wow, I will have to try it out. So when it says 20 hours ago, that is when they last updated the blog? Very cool, thanks!
