Here be dragons.
I’ve been feeling less than inspired for awhile. Sometimes I look for inspiration and ideas online. Most of the time I don’t find very much. I tend to rule out ideas that don’t seem they would work for me. Some are too challenging, not just hard, but far more than I could consider starting and hope to finish.… Read the rest
I routinely get rid of plugins and themes I’m not using. At this point I only use GeneratePress, so dealing with themes is as simple as not doing anything, I just have one theme and it updates itself.
If you have found one theme you like working with, get rid of the rest. Including the WordPress default themes.… Read the rest
I keep private (unpublished) posts in my sites for making notes like this. I always know where they are and they are in the place I will (eventually) use them. At some point I found PressForward as a way to link to the source of my inspiration and make my own notes to go along with it.… Read the rest
This is my current blogroll of writing links from WordGrrls. There are doubles because I re-add links fairly often. So far I haven’t found something which lets me know I already have a link on my blogroll. I also need to make time to check them for link rot. They should be fairly ok though. I do have a link checking plugin – when I run it on WordPress.… Read the rest
The following is cut and pasted from an abandoned site, on Tripod. I would have reposted more newsletters, but I only found two.

Today’s challenge is one I am skipping for now. I’ve got a lot of blogs I follow, years and years worth of blogs I follow and I almost never read them. I would like to take time to weed through my list to find which are link rot, moved and can have a fresh link and find new sites which I would love to add to the list.… Read the rest
I haven’t re-named any of my sites but I have gone through and put more thought (and some humour) into giving them new bylines. I can’t promise they will still be the same a month from now. But here they are today:
Today’s challenge:

This was originally posted to HubPages in 2012. Moved it from there because it wasn’t being read.
Content curation is all about finding great links and resources to share with others interested in your topic/ niche. The great thing is creating a resource which give credit and promotion to great sites and knowing you are getting them the readers they want.… Read the rest
This was originally posted to the Squidoo network when I was accepted as the “Oh Canada” Contributor.
Why become the Squidoo Contributor for “Oh Canada”?First, I am Canadian. Born in down town Toronto, grew up in and around Ontario but mainly in the town of Port Union (which became Scarborough, a suburb of Toronto). I have travelled across Canada on the Via train, Greyhound bus, and by camper van, staying in youth hostels and the odd fancy hotel when the budget stretched enough.… Read the rest
