All Narfed Up marks two years

As of yesterday, I’ve been blogging here for two years. Incredible. Here’s a list of random things to wrap up my second year:

• If you wrote a quality post that you think a lot of people will like, find a site that posts similar topics and email them!
• According to Bloglines, I have 7 subscribers. I should really switch to FeedBurner to keep track of this, huh?
• I’m subscribed to about 110 feeds. Out of those, four are comics, three are deals sites, two are for music album releases, 23 are productivity-type blogs. The rest are personal or tech blogs.
• In terms of content, my blog has been all over the place for a long time. Fortunately, I think I’ve narrowed it down to tech and GTD pretty well.
• I miss the forums. I’ve lost contact with the majority of people that used to participate there.
• I’m trying not to reblog. I figure lots of people subscribe to most of the popular sites out there already.
• It’s funny when I look through the busy months and I’ve barely posted anything. What isn’t funny is knowing that there’s a lot of people who still don’t use news readers and might’ve deleted my bookmark because of inactivity. Crud.
• Along those lines, I wish news readers/aggregators became more mainstream. I’ll follow my own advice and see if emailing Kurt the Cyberguy will persuade him to do a report on the importance and effectiveness of news readers.
• The more I’m away from the computer, the more I can notice things to write about.

Now, for some posts (which I deemed interesting) from this last year in blogging:
