Today’s my birthday - and as a birthday treat to myself, I decided to take a look at my blog’s statistics. (I know, fun, right?)
I officially launched the blog on December 30, 2007, but I had several test posts running before then. Now, I’m almost 2 months into this blog (and loving every minute)!
Now for the stats - drumroll, please! As of February 20, 2008…

In what’s been a whirlwind of a couple weeks, I interviewed and was offered (and am accepting!) a job in another state.
As we (my family and I) pack and move, I don’t envision myself having a ton of time for blogging.
I’ll try to keep going with the occasional del.icio.us link post, and get back to regular posting in about a month or so. (And, I’ll have some new insights for my series on finding an Ed Tech job!)
Thanks for your patience!

If you haven’t noticed already, I’ve been adding some comments/descriptions/notes on my links for my daily link post. I hope this makes the lists a little easier to see what’s relevant to your interests, or just know a little more about the link before you go and visit.
Any thoughts? Do you like the new format, or is it too much noise/clutter on the page? Let me know!

I screwed up something in the formatting on yesterday’s link post, so today’s will be larger to get the ones from yesterday back in. Sorry! (Still new at this blogging thing!)

Today marks my “official” launch for this blog, but as I’ve quickly learned, as soon as something is available on the internet, people will find it.
I already have links from people on del.icio.us and StumbleUpon, readers from MyBlogLog, followers on Twitter, and RSS subscribers. I’m glad you all have found me, and I hope you stick around, because there’s much more to come.
While you’re here, why not find out some more about me, get in touch with me, or browse the posts I’ve created already.
Update:
This is why I need to keep up a little better on my podcasts… it turns out, my blog was mentioned on the Ed Tech Talk radio show back on December 16th. Thanks guys!
Back in the blog’s early test posts, when it was picked up on the Ed Tech Talk radar, it was mostly link roundups and blog reviews (and trust me, those goodies will still continue!), but I’m planning some great feature-length posts tackling some topics in the field of Ed Tech. So stay tuned!
