Yes, I know there are flaws with that blog, I just reconstructed it after losing the old name, and the new theme put the old page experiments back into a highly visible spot. Those pages weren't intended to be seen, just old messing around from back in 2006.

I'm still in the process of fixing it back up. I haven't had time to figure out why this theme's css covers some of the titles, for instance. But I redid some pages - I rather like having prominent pages that deliver some fhgs and will add a few other niches in that pages bar across the top in the course of time.

Because it's a newly installed theme I haven't re-added the blocking metas to the header yet - something on my list of things to do. However, I don't plan on using rta. In theory, html contains all the official metas one needs for blocking software and browser setting, a third party isn't necessary.

When I started the blog there were no lists that were listing blogs, Bec. I'm still not entirely certain those are terribly useful links to have. Perhaps I'll add a few, but not many, to this older blog.

However, that certainly seems like a testable idea for a newbie demo blog trial.

I've asked a few times, about this newbie blog question, "where does the traffic come from?", execting someone to say something like "well at first it comes from lists, much like a free site, with some amount coming from the syndicators. Then you start to get long tail traffic from google.".

There are too many other points suggested to effectively respond to in a readable post, so I'll pause here for the moment.

So, all we have to do now is get some more new folks to join in a blogging experiment.

Speak up - who wants to start some blogs, and share what you learn?
