As always, I welcome any feedback and suggestions.
You're doing great! I'm so jealous, yesterday was a bit of fail for me and today I have lots of non-blog stuff that I have to do. I am definitely going to try to get to a challenge or two today!
As soon as I heard about this weekend, I told my husband I was going to be busy all three days! I thought yesterday would be a loss, but thank goodness for wireless cards – I was able to take my laptop with me to my sister's and get some work done. Good luck getting some challenges done – what ones are you looking at?
Great list…and progress. I'm sure I should add a few things to my list; I know that I want to participate in a few more mini-challenges.
Thanks for stopping by and checking out my site.
I started a list on paper that I will work off of once I finish my original list – this new list is from visiting everyone else and seeing what they are doing.
Looks like you're getting a lot of work done! I'm also looking in to doing a Review Archive- I think I might. Good luck with the rest of your list!
Now that I decided to do it, I need to figure out how I want it organized. I've been looking around at other blogs and have a few ideas that I am playing around with. Actually putting it together is on my list for tomorrow.
Hi! Thanks for stopping by my blog earlier!
I found the easiest way to clean out my google reader was to make a folder named "delete" and add all of the blogs I wanted to unsubscribe from into it, then just mass unsubscribe with a select all within that folder.
Using Blogger, you can set the width of all 3 columns actually, it's in the "Template" section of the Design page, in there it's a button that says "Edit Template" then there's an option to "Adjust Widths" 🙂
Good luck with your list too!
Thanks so much for the tips…I'm going to try them both.
