New links

Let’s give this a try…I have recently activated a plugin on my blog that will allow me (or you – I mean…I put it there for me but you are free to use it as well, of course) to send excerpts of my blog posts to my facebook account [gasp!] or my google buzz feed [ayyyyyeeee!].

I only plan on using google buzz and facebook – could care less about twitter and the rest – so those are the only ones enabled.

If I end up ditching my facebook account, and I might, then I may ditch that button as well.

To be clear, this blog doesn’t feel like it is about social networks, the number of trackbacks I get, or the amounts of “likes” or “shares” I see. It is about you and me.

You – you are probably a friend or family member with whom I speak and interact personally on a regular basis (sometimes irregularly). I like to tell stories to friends and family members and I like to have visuals with my pictures.

Me – I have a horrible memory for dates and well…for a lot of stuff. So this blog is about saving things like things The Mermaids said, stories of trips, and achievements of me and people around me.

If I ever write a blog that I wish to monetize or focus on something which is, or is part of, a niche in the blogosphere then I will get in touch with friends that know this kind of stuff and market the crap out of it probably putting it on every social network under the sun. (Mister Wong?! Really?)

We’ll see how this goes.

Good night Blief, sleep well, I’ll most likely kill links in the morning.

Wait, it is morning. Meh.
