June 2006 Archives

I've just updated my template to show only the past 5 days. I had 14 days before... But I'm sure some with slower connections speeds (I'm at 1.5-3.0 Mbps DSL) may never return if I left that settig as is. Plus I'm posting at least daily now.

If you are so inclined, you may check my del.icio.us page to search my entire blog by category. I plan on shifting to Blogger Beta soon; so I'll be able to have dynamic searchable labels throughout my blog.

I am enjoying the experience of writing daily, certainly as a great exercise. My flickr page is over 1,600 views since I started four months ago, and my new dogster page is over 130 views in barely threee days.

Inevitably, some visitors here seem to check my home page, d3velop.com. I blogged several whiles back about it: it's basically artworks I like, the inspiration for some of my current painting projects. None of it is my original work. Maybe eventually I'll switch my blog to the main page and move the art to a specific page. Indexing sure would be simpler for the blog pages.
