This is a sticky post

… so it (should) stay at the top of the page for awhile. I’m still writing! Don’t be like me, looking at the sticky entry, and thinking “Gosh, this person hasn’t updated in a week!” only to discover later that you are a dink.

Anyway. This is my semi-annual call for links. No, not for you to link to me, no worries.

I’ve explained this before– I have the attention span and memory of a gnat. Therefore, remembering blogs to go to is hard for me, unless I’ve got you over on my list of links. I find most of my reads through my referrals page– if you link to me, I go and read you, and it’s fun, and then I don’t get a hit from your site for a few days, and I totally forget to read your page, and then I go through life thinking “Hmm. There was a blog I was reading. But I don’t remember what it was”. And, of course, I only remember to check my referrals page like, once a month or something.

SO! If you link to me, if you read me, and you’re not already on my links list (and I’ve noticed that I have a few on there who have stopped blogging but I so hate to take them down!) leave a comment or email me, and let me know. Then I’ll link you, and then I’ll remember to read your blog, and I won’t be driven completely insane by my own bad memory.

Thank you.

  1. I hate taking down dead links, too. Waistdog was one of my favourite bloggers – he died last year, but I still can’t bring myself to remove his link. :(

  2. Don’t know whether this is of any help, but I have a similar attention span and memory problem. So what I’ve done is listed the URLs in Favourites (on Explorer) – all in a Folder entitled “good blogs”.

    Iggy, above, mentioned bookmarking, but … I haven’t found a way on Netscape to create a folder of similar blogs. (Dragging them together into a consecutive grouping takes too long.)

    A possible low tech solution would be to make a list of blog titles (and the reason they are interesting or what problem they address, etc.) and tape it in plain sight somewhere.
