New Features

I have discovered several new features that I can offer on my blog and I have added a few that I think will be beneficial for everyone including me. I'm only having one little problem and that is putting it all together in a visual appeasing manner that will allow them to be seen and used. So far I added another daily quote at the top of my blog, a new picture, a poll on random questions, a new blog buddies list titled double stuff (if you want to be added to that let me know who you are and I will add it), a followers link, What's up in the world breaking news, a subscribe to, a slide show, labels, New music, a music search, astronomy picture of the day, NASA picture of the day, Watch shows online, and a you tube slide show. How ever I need some opinions on what I should keep and where I should put it. I do not like clutter or random placed objects. However, If you think my site would do better off with out a specific item, perhaps I'm missing something, or should move it to a different spot let me know.

Photos

This is site is a must see.  First off the creator is a good friend who has treated me well.  I had know that he has taken pictures in the past in fact I know what happens to the pictures that are deemed as "looser pictures".  Needles to say I'm not sure who has them, or where the stack of 300+ pictures are at this moment.  Aside form those looser pictures I had seen few of the pictures that were deemed good.  Now I have the opportunity to purchase anyone that I want which is a staggering task of trying to narrow down my favorites to one or even just a few.  Right now on his sight if you send people to it you can be entered into a contest to win the picture of your choice, but hurry the drawing will end soon visit his site http://www.alongthebackroads.com/webpages/homepage.html to learn more about the giveaway.  If you would like to read his blog you can click the link here Adventures & Misadventures of Daily Living or select his blog from my list of friends under the heading "Double Stuff".  Tell him Rich sent you.
