The art of blogging

I've been looking at a lot of blogs over the last week, and they vary considerably from the novice (like myself) to the very experienced. Some are visually stunning (see BirdBrain), whilst others made me laugh (I particularly liked the blonde joke from Balfour's 23 Things!). There are some very witty bloggers out there and I shall enjoy following their progress in the coming weeks...

Going back...
I should have mentioned in my blog for Thing 2 that I also set up a page for netvibes:


(I like chocolate - is it obvious??)
I thought netvibes was a much more sophisticated-looking site than iGoogle and I really like its style. I'll definitely continue exploring this after the 23 Things have come to an end.


And pageflakes:


There is a US bias with pageflakes, so I went through and changed it to UK info as much as I could. Adding things wasn't particularly obvious but I eventually worked out that you to go to Menu (iGoogle made it easy by calling this Add stuff!).

The next Thing...
I will be looking at Thing 5 tomorrow and shall blog about my experiences very soon...

  1. Mmmm - I like your chocolates header on your netvibes page, but doesn't it make you hungry each time you look at it?!

  2. Yes it does unfortunately! This is causing me huge problems at the moment as I am trying (& failing) to train for the Race for Life...perhaps I should change it to something which will motivate me!
