A booklog for 2010?

When I look back to 2009 and try to remember all the books I have read and the movies I have seen, I do not seem to be able to remember them all. Many movies I saw in the theatres and many books were from the library. Throughout the blogging circus, many people have got something that can be compared to a digital mediashelf, where all books, movies and everything else.

A pretty good idea I think, so I would be able to remember everything by the end of the year. My search for a plugin however, has not really been successful. There are plugins to reflect the current book or movie, but there is no real “media shelf” plugin that could see. If you know any useful plugin of that kind, or even a method to create a mediashelf for a blog/website, I would be very eager to know.

Blogger was what I actually started blogging with…

If you set aside that Haloscan commenting system I used on my not-so-nice iframe beginner website back then. It was in the beginnings/the middle of 2005, when I actually heard about blogging and blogging software, blogging services and all that. I registered at blogger.com, which now is accessible via my google account and made myself a blog. And when I was that there actually were some layouts to choose from (and some were made by Dave Shea, owner of CSS Zengarden) I immediately decided I was going to try out how to make such a layout myself. Bravely reasing all the CSS and starting off with a blank document, a minute later I had created what I referred to as being “the ugliest blog layout ever created”. And it was true. Read more…

Spring is here

And it comes with a clear blue sky and sun for everybody to enjoy. Finally, you can take a deep breath and start dreaming about summer. Winter has been longer than usual, it seems, it has been raining for weeks and cold. Now, winter is over:-) I realize that when the weather is fine, I do feel much better, more motivated and my mood is climbing up some points on the happiness scale. I wonder, if it is time for a new layout, since the current one has been up for over one year now. Strange does this seem to me, since there were times when I use to change the layout at least monthly. Any suggestions?

Blogging from my IPhone

This post is written from my IPhone using the WordPress for IPhone app after fixing the issue that would not let the app connect to my blog. It worked after inserting the wp_head() call into the themes header. I have to admit I am starting to get addicted;) to blogging this way because it is so easy. You just get the phone out and start to write. This is definitely a step forward to getting rid of a writers block, those moments when you sit in front of the screen and just cannot start because something is there to keep your hands off the keyboard…

Anyway, I only know that I love to be connected this way:-)
