A Blogiversary party to plan...

Posted on 05:00 by Guy
...and a linkish placeholder post today. Blame NaBloPoMo for my not taking the day off entirely, since I was sick yesterday. i'm feeling a little better and will be back at work today, but I haven't felt up to much in the way of thinking and writing for the last few days.

But I need to get up to speed soon, because I've got a five-year Blogiversary party to plan! The actual Big Day is this Friday, and the party will be held here on Sunday. On the eve of the event, I plan to post a few reflections tomorrow--but there may be fewer than I'd intended, depending on how I'm feeling today!

March is a great month for a blog birthday! Suey at It's All About Books is also celebrating her fifth Blogiversary this week. Jenn's blog, Jenn's Bookshelves, turned four last week, and she reflected on a few things she wished she'd known back when she started.

This post is also a preview of a mini-challenge I'm hosting during
Bloggiesta later this month (are you signed up yet?) about mobile apps for bloggers (as you'll see at the very end)--do you have any favorites? Tell me in the comments, and I'll check 'em out! And as an iPad/iPhone user, I'd particularly appreciate your suggestions for other platforms.


Quote of the Day, one of many provocative statements made by author Rex Pickett in a conversation with author Caroline Leavitt:
"(T)he good news about the Internet is that it'll give everyone a voice; the bad news about the Internet is that it gives everyone a voice."
It's certainly given me one. What do you think?
