Bloggish/Bookish Business:
The Summer Mini-Bloggiesta was this weekend. While I didn’t officially participate I did check out a few of the challenges:
Thanks to Monika’s Challenge I finally figured out how to actually use the domain name I purchased almost a year ago. I’m feeling all legit now. No more blogspot in my name, yahoo!
Tanya posted a great article about leaving engaging and valuable comments. <~~Wonderful tips, check it out!

Isn’t this fantastic?? |
Can I quickly say that I HATE CAPTCHA? I spend as much time typing in those ridiculous things as I do commenting. There are other options that don’t require your readers to jump through hoops. (Don’t allow anonymous comments, boom!)
http://parajunkee.com/2013/06/remove-captcha-tip.html That's the link I've been sharing with everyone lately. Easy peasy removal instructions! I think WP is easy to leave comments on. I used to allow anonymous comments here and then you could just type in whatever you wanted. But I was spammed hourly and had to stop that 😦 I keep hoping that they'll fix the lameness of the comment system here!
