I need a break from the blog work
Jul. 18th, 2010 06:27 pmMy brain is breaking with all the bloggy decisionmaking: ads or no ads? track traffic or just let it flow? how often to post? etc., etc. and all stuff I've never bothered worrying about before, even though I've been blogging for nearly a decade.
