Funny Coincidence with MyBlogLog Recent Readers Avatars

Date March 30, 2007

I just noticed over on my Lifestreamblog that two recent readers to the site via the MyBlogLog avatars were a happy dog and cat harmoniously next to each other…well actually user nata2 is in between them with his index finger up.

Date March 22, 2007

Ever since I’ve become aware of the Lifestream concept I’ve been monitoring any new tidbits of information that may be released. So I came across a link to an article titled “Lifestreams could help create new personalised discovery engines” which sounded very interesting so a clicking I will go.

Host your photos, images, mp3 files and more with the new Divshare Wordpress Plugin

Date March 3, 2007

Today I decided it was time to find another site to host images other than photos. I currently use Flickr for photos and haven’t been happy about diluting my account with screenshots and other non-photo images to display on my site. One of the big reasons I chose Flickr was due to the great Wordpress [...]
