The BlogStalker

Well hello there. Thanks for stopping by. Welcome to The BlogStalker. So here’s the deal with this blog…

I spend a lot of time reading blogs. Then I usually comment based on what I read. Most of the time it’s just me talking to myself, my wife, or my dog. Then I made some friends and they all read blogs too. So they usually got the stupid stuff that I said about blogs. Then about a month ago I started doing a weekly blog roundup on my other blog, where I basically just talked about what other bloggers were doing.

A few people seemed to like it, so I decided that I’d create a blog where that’s all I did. So that’s how we got here. Let’s take a tour of the blog and all it’s wonderful features. Here’s what we’ve got going on with the navigation:

The Stalker - That’s where I talk about myself. I promise it’s not too deep or preachy. I don’t have all the answers. I don’t even know the questions.

The Fam - This is where I talk about Kate and Gilbert. I have a feeling Kate will make me update this page frequently. She’ll say things like - “you need to update Gilbert’s hobbies.”

Free Shiz - This is a good one. If anyone ever gives me free stuff and I’ve got some to give away, I’ll talk about it here. Oh, and if you’re a blogger and you have some kind of contest or giveaway going on, this is where you can promote it. Good idea, right? Yeah, I thought so. 

Blog Reviews - I have no idea what I’m going to do on this page. We’ll figure it out later.

Pictures - Kate won’t use our Picasa album, but I think she might look at/post pictures here. So there you go.

That’s my navigation. Here are the categories of posts that I’m going to have:

Weekly Roundup - That’s what I’ve been doing for awhile now. If you scroll down you’ll see some examples of that. I’ll try to do this one once a week. Otherwise it wouldn’t be a weekly roundup, would it?

Extended Comment - Here’s a new feature. Usually when I’m reading a blog, I want to comment. Usually the potential comment in my head is inappropriate, too long, or some kind of inside joke. So I usually hit the comments button, sometimes make it to the point of typing out the comment, but rarely ever hit submit. So I’ll post those extended comments here with a little bit of context. I don’t know how often I’ll do that. I’d like to do it daily but it’s more likely that it’ll happen a few times a week.

So there you go. That’s what we’ve got going on here. Thanks again for stopping by.
