Cheers, K, you’ll look back on your early posts, and they’ll definitely be different.

Jimmy Stewart Curmudgeon? Hmmmm…..

I agree Josh, that’s why I’ve kept mine, but on a single page.

It’s a heady rush at the time Francisco, but then they leave and you’re left to clean up….

six months ago I was in the middle of a social storm… with 2000+ visitors each day… they were crazy for my google guide …

sadly it was over in less than a month…

Hey Chris – Looks like you’ve been digging into my archives a bit to pull out the blogroll post. Since writing the post, however, I’ve decided that a blogroll is still important (especially since google gives weight to them) and maintain a small set of sites within it.

As you can see, I was not among the chosen few. The interview was, however, as nice as always. Really, people should have interviews like that every few months just for the positive feelings they generate.

If only the soul-crushing disappointment didn’t have to follow….

But I liked seeing your link to that heartwarming holiday story. Sort of makes me look like Jimmy Stewart doesn’t it? (No, I suppose not either.)

Congrats Chris.. you have done a great job and I’m sure it’s only going to get better.

I just crossed my 3 month mark couple of weeks back. I am not sure if my style is changing or not but like you guys mentioned there is no dearth of stuff to talk about which was a concern to me when I started out. If I would be able to sustain the level of posts..

Thanks for the link Chris!

It’s always good to look back & see if your blogging is meeting your goals. I have written other articles on the same subject as of late!

Hey Maki, sounds like an intriguing change on the horizon? Yeah, although I’m more than happy to accept articles (especially quality ones like that recently supplied by Scott@ Savvy Affiliate) the idea never really took off.

But then I’ve found more to write about than I thought I would…

I don’t enjoy the cold RT, but I don’t think I could ever stand that kind of heat-I’d be stuck to the A/C (Which I know you haven’t got). I like reading back through people’s archives, which makes it a tad frustrating when they don’t have links to them.

Keep going Andy, the time will fly by

Hmm… haven’t start my blog six months ago. But what I have noticed is that there are a lot more stuff that I would like to blog about now.

The hoopla got canceled. And not completely acclimated yet. I think I’m too old to get there within a year. Thanks for the look back, Chris.

I think I’ve definitely developed quite a bit since 6 months ago. I actually started my blog documenting the smaller get-paid-to programs and now that blog seems to be more focused on blog-related income streams, though that itself might change soon.

Nice idea, Chris… and thanks for yet another mention.

Just checked the Blog-op archives and there seems to be a lot more contributions from other bloggers during December last year.
