Looking for my giveaway? It runs through today September 23 closing at 10:00 PST. Check it out here.
I admit that I'm a quasi-techno geek.
I feel more quasi more often than not. I'm beginning to lose my savi-techno lingo with each iteration of new technology that comes about.
Do you KNOW how long it took me to figure out how to link photos from flickr here? When I realized I didn't need to up-load my photos in two places I was so excited!
So, how do you follow people?
I follow people mostly through Google Reader. Do you know that I get that 1000+ posts to read more often that I like to admit! I love being able to view everything in a snap shot. I know that doesn't show the bloggy love in the stats but I do see the posts. Oh and I can search them too.
I love the blog post I found when I was a newbie blog reader about the 'Next' button. Do you know about that? I can't find the blog person or post that I learned this trick from. Clover and Violet has a great post on this trick you can find that post here.
I put some of my fav peeps in my 'blog roll' over on the bottom right ---> {you know these ladies ROCK right?}
Do you Flickr?
Yeah this is so much eye candy for me. I love that so many quilters have found their way there to make groups! When I was going through blogs I was so amazed these people made their ways into groups. How did they do that? Ohhh flickr has GROUPS!
I found my way into the Quilting Bee Blocks group. Yeah and stalked the 'I want in' thread. I admit -I did stalk this a bit too much the first few months - thus the MANY a bee I'm in. I do not look at this group anymore! I find my groups through blogs now. Oh dear.
:)
You can see my plethora of photos here
Do you Pinterest?
I have a few boards found here.
I have a bff from grade school who is a tastemaker in the 'technology' category. That means she's SUPER cool and spends a few hours on pinterest sometimes.
She's amazing on the techno geeky love. One day I'll pay her to redesign my blog. Now what will I have her do?
Do you Twitter?
Do you blog?
I stalk many a blog but I'm always looking for more. ♥
Do you bee?

So do you?
I would love to see what you got going on!
I'm lovin' the linky love honey ta very much :)
ReplyDeleteI also now have lots of reading to do (Who needs a tidy house anyway!)
I would do so much more if I actually paid for my internet. :-)
ReplyDeleteI follow people by blog,email and newsletter but my best way is go to the blog.
ReplyDeleteI joined a group in flirck,my first time.
Love that block,is great!!
I usually follow blogs by email. I need to change this because I get to many daily emails.
ReplyDeleteI follow blogs via Google Reader/Google Friend Connect and that "Next" button thingy pretty much changed my life. I love it.
ReplyDeleteI do Flickr, and like you, I was gobsmacked at the size and vibrancy of the Flickr community. I love it! I over-committed to bees, too...just finishing up a couple and limiting myself to one for the coming year.
I can't let myself get on Twitter because I have enough trouble finding time to actually sew!
I'm here from Ellison Lane - i'll stay a while and have a look around your lovely blog!
