New features
Posted by tata on Wednesday Aug 6, 2008 Under blogsI planned to wait until the results of the poll were in (only one day left to vote!!!) to announce the new features/changes on the site, but given the current standings, it looks like things will stay the way they are. That said, here are the changes:
- Added a star-rating feature so you can vote on each post. It also includes recommendations for other content that might interest the reader.
- Deleted the Recent Viewers widget.
- Deleted the Crochet & Knit widget.
- Moved the Wish List widget to its own page.
- Replaced the social bookmark icons bar with a single ShareThis button.
- Added a blogroll. There are 20-ish, but only the 10 most recently updated show.
- Updated the Buzzworthy Posts widget to reflect my new domain name and shortened the list to 5 instead of 12.
- Changed from 7 posts on the main page to 5 posts.
I hope you enjoy the changes. I’d love to hear any feedback on it or improving the layout in general. And, as always, if you enjoy this blog, I’d be very grateful if you share it! Thanks!

Love the changes! I think I need to get me a blogroll. My list of favorite blogs is getting kind of out of hand and I can’t list all 50 of them.

Ok, you might have to show me a thing or two.

I love reading your blog and usually check it almost daily.
I have to admit though.. the brown eyes popping out of your pic at the top have really freaked me out a few times.

You’ve got a ton of fun stuff on here! You just might inspire me to make my own blog more fun!
