2000 Bloggers…And I’m One of Them!

If you’re active in the blogosphere, I’m sure you’ve heard about this little project from a guy named Tino Buntic. He recently started something called “2000 Bloggers“, which is a simple - albeit ingenious - idea which displays the faces of 2000 bloggers of all “types” on one page.

UPDATE: I’ve included the full 2000 Bloggers project on my site on a special page. Check it out right here!


Imagine my shock - and I do mean SHOCK - to find that my ugly mug was actually used as part of this project, with a link to Money2BMade! I never requested to be on the list…I just ended up on there somehow! Trust me, I’m flattered…it just is amazing how I ended up on the list in the first place! I’m a little confused, and really excited!

I guess it’s just a testament to getting your name “out there”. I’m an extremely small blogger in a sea of MILLIONS, so I can’t believe that I actually was chosen. I’m noticing some traffic from other blogs which have the 2000 bloggers featured on there…and even some from Technorati. If you came here to read more about the 2000 Bloggers story, please feel free to leave a comment with a link to your site! :)

The people over at PayPerPost have just announced their acquisition of a website geared at bloggers, called Performancing.com. The entire site is not being sold - only certain aspects are being taken over by PayPerPost.

I had not heard of this website until the news was announced, but am glad to find out about it! Performancing.com is a website for bloggers, which offers a free Firefox blogging tool, the ability to earn money on your blog through advertising, and (my personal favorite feature) - a fully functioning tracking service called Metrics. This tool allows you to learn more about your blog’s visitors through various tracking methods. And the best part: it’s all free!

Check out Performancing.com for more info, and to sign up for an account!

Tag! You’re It! (Part II)

I hope everyone had a very Merry Christmas! Looking forward, now, to the NEW YEAR! :)

In my attempt to get this blog up-to-speed and optimized for 2007, I have finally taken the time to add a TAG feature.

You’ll notice at the bottom of each post, from here on out, will include a list of “tags” - basically a list of short “buzzwords” to help organize each post and make them more “search-friendly”.

I actually made use of an awesome WordPress plugin called Ultimate Tag Warrior. So far, so good! If you have a blog of your own (and you should!), look into using tags. This free plugin will help simplify the process…which is ALWAYS a good thing.
