More Blog Housekeeping...

Getting ready for the "new fall season" of blogging? Now is the time! I've been using Google Analytics and other data to try and figure out the best ways to get readers to come back and to interact. I'm seeing more in the way of "comments" and that's good. I'm also seeing folks come in and use the Haloscan comments like a Cbox or TagBoard, and that's also good!

I've added a box at the top of the sidebar where you can enter your email addy and get nightly updates / summaries of this blog. I've seen this recommended by many other bloggers, so naturally I'm curious to see how it will work here. I almost installed the MyBlogLog widget that shows previous posts (actually, I DID install it for a few hours) but then I realized that there's already a "previous posts" section in the sidebar!

Scroll down a bit and you'll notice "Dave Lucas' Shared Items" which comes your way via my Google Reader, so I can direct and recommend articles on other people's blogs without having to log in and post an entry.

You'll also notice different "counters" and "rankers" which are really more for my benefit than yours, so I can get a feel for what's happening with this blog. I've signed up for but haven't fully initiated some "microblogging" features... there's also a little icon under my photo that says "mobile" which is how you can carry and view my blog wherever you go on your iPhone!

I'm on MySpace, Facebook and LinkedIn... (love those "social networks") I still have the LiveJournal blog but I haven't really posted anything to it in a long time.

In the months to come, I'm hoping to get more in the way of interaction and participation from readers and other bloggers. Your feedback is always welcome!

Feel free to share your feedback with me by leaving me a comment using either "comments" feature below. If you have any questions, I’ll be happy to help answer them for you. Take a moment to subscribe to my RSS Feed and be sure to start following me on Twitter.
