Blogger Buzz

Here's a new feature in Google's Blogger software that has Facebook-like appeal:

Browse Profiles! Find new blogs to read!
Say you live in Albuquerque, count the Smashing Pumpkins among your favorite bands, and like sushi. Starting today, we’re making it easy for you to find other bloggers who share your interests.

Now you can go to any Blogger profile page (start with your own, or perhaps another popular blogger’s) and follow any of the links on the page to get a list of other bloggers with the same industry, occupation, location, interest, or favorite book, movie, or music.

What if you could "friend" bloggers of likemindedness?

Vacation

The blogger's lament. I had the best of intentions but just could not bring myself to blog much over the past three weeks, two of which have been spent away on vacation. We spent one at Myrtle Beach watching our son play a baseball tourney and the other at Lake Powell in Arizonia (the pic is of Rainbow Bridge, a mile hike from the lake). This being my first blogging summer, I realize I'll have to come up with some way to feed my personal blogs while away; at the office, at least there was plenty of help (although I see a few things didn't get updated while I was away!)
