I don't spend much time on this blog talking about blogging because I know that's not why you're here. Still, I wanted to mention a milestone reached today for the blog.
Today, we achieved over 100,000 views in just over one year. In addition we're getting about 200 links in just the past six months from other sites. This may not seem like much to some of you, but to me it's pretty special as I remember the early months of being excited to have 100 hits in a day & now reaching about 1,000 hits a day certainly is a step in the right direction...
Both of these are significant milestones to me as I run this blog as mostly a hobby. I have my day job and keep pretty busy with other stuff, but take time out of each evening and morning to post tech how-to's, technology news and other related content that I think you might find interesting. I do this because I enjoy it and like to share the things I'm learning.
I do have limited advertising on the site, but it's really just there to cover my overhead and just a little more. Here's a special thanks to all of the readers for your continued support. Keep coming back and I'll do my best to make this site useful and interesting for you.
I also wanted to mention that I've updated my "What I'm Reading" list with more of the websites and blogs I read frequently. You can always find this list updated at the right side-bar of this blog near the bottom of the page. Here's the latest list with a selection of blogs & sites I'm reading:
