Summary

Overall I am happy with how things are going here.  The earnings part of the site is not my main focus, I am trying to build up content, and for that reason I have removed ads on the front page. I am pleased that the RSS subscribers almost doubled (thanks to you who use RSS), and I am looking forward to hitting over 100 in October. I’ve also reached good enough figures on Alexa and on Technorati for such a young blog. And I hope to be under 100k on Alexa by the end of next month and to try and 1/2 my Technorati score. But who knows.

Highlight

When I try to think of a highlight, I am having a hard time thinking of one. Maybe the 100% increase of my RSS readers would be one. Overall I am happy with the ways things are going.

Ideas for the Blog

One of the ideas I have is to put together some automatic list of female bloggers. Seeing as I was sick last week, I am a bit behind schedule with this, but I would love to have this ready by the end of the week. I’ve put some effort in to using the API from Alexa and from Technorati, so that I can grab those figures automagically.
