Hit Refresh!!! (Thing 24)

So, I played with my blog, and then played some more. What is the result? I really liked the colors of my blog! So, while the playing was fun. I don't feel compelled to hit save for these "inferior" blogs!

I also really tried to explore a few more Avatar generators. I'm not really attracted to the ones that are "too cartoonish," so I just stick to having lots of fun changing outfits, setting, and accessories as a Yahoo Avatar! I do want to take a look at Meez, but I couldn't get the site working tonight - Bummer....

On the other hand, I am curious about trying out some of the free templates that other web creaters have made available outside of the basic templates within Blogger. I haven't found the right one yet, but with thousands out there, there might be something worthwhile!

On the other hand - There are so many new gadgets that are useful and just plain fun! I started with a few basic, practical gadgets that actually let me consolidate and simplify the user experience of my blog. Blogrolls are one of my favorites. So simple, but so important to building and contributing to the Web 2.0 community. In the past I used a lot individual RSS feeds to my blog to create a blogroll, but it is so much better now with just one gadget!

I don't have any "followers" yet, but I like the idea of this gadget. I am exploring Web 2.0 in this blog for my own benefit, but it like all Web 2.0 tools, it only gets stronger as the community grows. So, I am going to be interested in seeing if I get any "followers." Anyone want to join my blog community???
