Music I’ve Mentioned

"Hello World"

Yup. It’s finally up and running. Of course, my brain has crashed. That’s right…404: Not found. Not being one to do things the easy way and not being one who lets technology frighten me, I set out (fearlessly…perhaps fecklessly) to implement my vision in my little corner of the blogosphere. For the last two days I have been in a pseudo-Kafkaesque nightmare of hosting services, domain management, blog publishing software, blog writing software, and an alphabet soup of programming languages I thought I’d left behind when I switched majors from Electrical Engineering to English Literature oh so many, many years ago. I am feeling oh so ‘White and Nerdy’, and yet…this blog still isn’t even close to looking the way I envisioned. Future improvements include getting my own ‘button’ for the blog as well as adding linked ‘buttons’ to a few of my favorite blogs. I’ll probably be experimenting with color scheme and other details too.

I’ve got lots of fun posts planned and I’ve been taking tons of pictures so I’ll probably be updating pretty frequently for the first few weeks. After that, depending on what’s going on at home and with my ‘real’ job, I’ll try to do three posts a week (plus or minus).

Thanks for visiting.

    Yeah, I finally got to you! You will need to get into the habit of leaving a clickable link when you write your blog address.)

    But a fine looking place it is too – simple, uncluttered (as yet) and looking pristine enough to accomplish great things.
    Roll on world peace!
    (Although I must say you have discouraged me from trying to start my own blog – probably for 6 months or so.)

    Happy knitting,
    Janey

    Hi, Amber, congradulations on your blog. This is the first time I’m leaving a comment on a blog so I hope this message will go through just fine. I’ll keep up in reading your blog. I’m looking forward to the posts you have planned, with exploring ideas on color and other ideas. Thank you for sharing with all of us, from those of us at knitting novices and everyone else.

  • Welcome To The World Of Blog-A-Venturers

  • Your comments are a hoot! Loved reading through them all. I am just starting my blog also, and it is definitely fun, and has been somewhat what I hoped it to be….Just like kids, I guess I will have to wait until it grows up a bit before I start running around bragging!

    Hey-it’s me, eeevil. Love your blog. I don’t even look too chubby in the picture. Finished said scarf and put (oh my god, I forgot the word) strings on the end. Damn brain. I am doing another scarf and still on the front section 2 of cardi.

    Keep up the good blogging! Will see you at bookclub tomorrow. Should we ask Wendy to join?
