Comments and 10 Followers!

Just this evening I discovered the "Comments" tab in my blog section. It's also next to "edit posts" on the blogger home page. The reason why I bring this up is because every time I've previously looked for comments on my blog, I've clicked on the "Edit Posts" link, and tried to look for new numbers next to each post. With this new way, I can see all new comments as they come in, even if they're on an older post that I hadn't been keeping an eye on.

I do have to say I'm happy that I now have 10 followers for my blog. Every little milestone should be enjoyed and appreciated if possible. I find the whole concept of building a readership quite interesting. I'm not setting out to become some popular blogger with tons of readers, but I enjoy the thought that people read, enjoy and interact with the words I send out into the vast internet. No matter how you found me, whether it's from a comment I made on another blog, through google or blogger, or through Facebook, I hope that you find something interesting or useful here. If so, leave me a comment so I know.

And for the new readers out there, welcome to my little corner of the internet!

P.S. I do realize that I am 1 of the 10 followers, but let me sit here and enjoy the moment! :)

Facebook

It seems like a number of blogs that I've followed frequently mention Facebook. So I figured why not make a Facebook account for this blog? See to the right for my Facebook badge.

Jump Summaries

I realize that I tend to write long posts. So I've enabled the updated editor (Settings => Basic => Select Post Editor), and started using Jump Summaries:

Just click on the "Read More" link to see the entire post. I just wish I could have text after the jump, but that doesn't seem to be the case.
