Skribit: Review of Skribit

Skribit: Review of Skribit.

Have you ever had writer’s block? I know I do, and trying to figure out what to write about when all you see is a blank slate in front of you can be downright aggravating. Take heart – help is just a widget away with Skribit .

This handy little widget is a way for readers to leave comments about what they would like to see you write about.  Once you have it installed, one way to encourage your readers to actually use it is to ask them for suggestions, and then write about them so that people can actually see you are open to new ideas. Readers are allowed to post anonomously, which may help people feel more comfortable leaving comments, espescially those lurkers we all seem to have, but if you like knowing who is commenting, there is a way to change that in your setup.

Well, what are you waiting for?

I’m a skribitter, and you are welcome to comment!

There’s a new shop in town

It’s summer time, and Baby, it’s hot out there! I was doing some browsing today and came across a gem of a store – with an even better idea, so I’m plugging it!

Over the years, I have had a few special tee-shirts that enjoyed buying, wearing, and then turning into pillows when they got too faded. But now, Spreadshirt promises that the logos are better, and with all of their designs, and the ability to create your own store, well, yours truly did just that. So far, there’s 151 items – Men’s, women’s, juniors, toddler and infant wear, plus a few more items, and the store will be updated daily with new logos, so keep an eye out for it! FYI, the store is called Tee-Time.

If you’re in need of tee-shirts, come on by. And if you’re looking for something special, ask and I’ll see what I can find.

Recipes and

I planted zucchini this year, so will need a few new recipes, and came upon a delightful blog, titled “Thyme For Cooking, the Blog.” Not only are there zucchini recipes, but recipes of all sorts, along with some great photos and stories of house hunting and other funny things going on in the life an American  Expat. Very funny – check it out.

Learning CSS

Creating websites when you know nada about HTML, DHTML, Java, or CSS or any web coding is next to impossible unless you use a program that lets you edit on command (such as the coding inserts found here on WordPress, DreamWeaver, or Microsoft FrontPage, or various other programs.
