Technology Tuesday: Or not.

Yesterday, I mentioned I wanted to try writing in themes to help me actually blog each day. (waving to my one faithful reader...)

Anyhow, I thought Tuesday could be Technology Day.

I'm not technological.

I'm not even logical.

That's probably why I clicked on the button at blogger that asked if I wanted to attach my blog to a domain name (thus, I think, even losing my one faithful reader). Since then, I've been trying to figure out what I'm supposed to do next. I'm not even sure what a domain is!

Definition of the day:

Domain= a fancy word for website address.

If you create a domain, you can register it (for a fee) so that people can find your site using that address. So it's a good thing for someone who might want to--say--write a book and then have readers look for them on the internet. (Well, gee. Why didn't they just say that to begin with?)


Other fun tech stuff:

I found a website--thanks to my good friend (and faithful reader!) Jennifer Shirk. If you look to the right of the page...somewhere...scroll down...you'll see a little, blue icon button. Tips for New Bloggers. What a great site! They have all kinds of good stuff for technopaires like moi. Like...information.


They also pointed me in the direction of widgetbox, where I found a hypoallergic kitty and a fish tank that never needs cleaning. Oh, and a thing that will help me tune my daughter's guitar!


None of these have anything to do with writing. Faithful reader...do you care?
