I feel like this week has been a huge learning experience for me when it comes to blogging. I'm talking about the back-side of blogging, not the pretty pictures and fun project side. The part where you have freak outs and meltdowns when you are trying to replace html in your code. Or, the part where you learn that you had no clue how the comments section worked on your blog and you feel like an idiot when you realize what you have been doing wrong. Yeah, that was me this week.
I'm kind of thinking about doing a basic blogging series soon. I feel like I have finally "gotten" some things this week after feeling in the dark and blindly doing the blog stuff for a while now. I am at no means an expert but when you learn something I feel like you should share. So if you are like me and feel like a newbie blogger, are wondering why everyone seems like an expert blogger but you or just need the comfort in knowing that you are not the only one who hasn't got a clue - then come follow me! We will work through this blogging thing together.
If you ever have a blogging question, please just ask me! I may not be able to answer it - but I might and I would love to help if I could. I have learned a lot from other bloggers and I am so thankful for their willingness to share and help me through. I love the blogging community and I would love for this blog to just be an extension of that.
Hope you guys have a wonderful weekend!
I have a question. Is it better to reply directly to the comment on the blog post, or email the blogger back. I usually reply back to bloggers by replying to their comment but have noticed I'll get emails from bloggers whom I have commented on. I don't know which is better and how I would do that option.

Emailing! Just sent you one :).
Deletei just had a freak out over the google reader. i'm not super happy still but i'm dealing.
ReplyDeleteI am so bummed about google reader. And igoogle! I just love having everything all together. I wish everyone would forget Facebook and move to Google+ too so that I would only have to upload pictures once! So, currently I use the next button with google reader. If I'm viewing a blog in bloglovin, can I pin right from how I'm viewing it? Or do I have to click on the title and open it up?
ReplyDeleteDo you know anything about going from blogger to wordpress? Everyone seems to talk about it like it's a nightmare, but worth it.
I'm so new to blogging that my "cord" has fallen off yet! What's happening google is doing what? Was there an email, or something? What should I be doing? Help. I'm so in the dark.
ReplyDeleteOAN, I love your blog and check in regularly to see what you are up to.
I see lots of blogs with Google Friend Connect on the sidebar. What is the benefit of this?
ReplyDeleteI'm totally thinking you need to do this series...I am also muddling through all the back end of the blog stuff! I was blogging for about a year for fun and then decided that maybe it could be a lil something more and talk about learning by mistake! lol! When I first started blogging I just uploaded my images straight from my camera...ummm ya. No scaling down for me!?! Bigger is better, right? Talk about clueless!! I agree with you, I think if we learn something cool (even if it's simple) we should share it with each other to help others. Great idea! Oh, thank you for the comment on Henry's room, too. Here is a cardboard moose! ;) Jesse @ Scout & Nimble http://www.uncommongoods.com/product/cardboard-animal-heads?utm_medium=cpc&utm_source=google&gclid=CJrR_5_nkbYCFUhgMgodWgoAjg

Today, I went to the beach front with my kids. I found a sea shell and gave it to my 4 year old daughter
ReplyDeleteand said "You can hear the ocean if you put this to your ear." She
placed the shell to her ear and screamed. There was a hermit crab inside and it pinched her ear.
She never wants to go back! LoL I know this is entirely off topic but I had to
tell someone!
