RSSThank you, Lazy Man

Assorted Blog news, State of the blog No Comments
Note: this is the second post of Monday. Scroll down to see the sports update post.
Some of you may be wonder about the identity of the benevolent soul who is allowing me to use some of his server space. It is none other than Lazy Man of LazyManAndMoney.com. If you haven’t been to his site, check it out. He blogs about personal finance (and his beloved Red Sox and Patriots) from his own unique perspective. There’s a good bit of humor, which is always a good thing.
Lazy Man also helped with several technical issues related to the setup. Meaning that he did the setup and then troubleshot anything weird that happened. Lazy has also provided a lot of useful information over the past few months. To be honest, I probably wouldn’t be writing this blog if it wasn’t for him. I had pretty much abandoned my writing for a decade. It was his encouragement – and his own success – that caused me to launch the blog.
There is some news stuff on the blog:
In order to leave comments, you will need to put in a name and email address. No, I am not collecting the addresses for anything (ugh, I would NEVER do that), and they will not be displayed along with your comments. If you want a cool picture displayed with your comments, register at Gravatar.com. You register your email address and then choose a picture to use as your avatar. Then, any time you leave comments at a Gravatar-enabled site (and there are plenty) your image will be displayed. (Note – the avatar is tied to your email address, not your name).
One more new thing. You will start seeing “related websites” at the bottom of each article. This is the result of a “plug-in” I am using that searches other blogs for related content. I don’t have any control over the sites that are displayed, but I hope you enjoy the sites that are displayed. Some of them might provide further evidence of a point I am making; others might completely contradict me. For those of you who are WordPress bloggers, the plug-in is “Blog Traffic Exchange” and can be downloaded from http://www.blogtrafficexchange.com/related-websites/
