Miscellaneous Ramblings - August 23rd 2008

Some random news and ramblings for you all on this relaxing Saturday afternoon

Looking to hire a blogger

I’ve added a new marketplace to the Blogging Tips Forums. I plan on adding a few rooms but the first one I have added is the Looking to Hire room. This room will let blog owners advertise about paid and unpaid blogging positions they have available. There aren’t too many places where blog owners can do this for free so I thought this would be a nice addition to the site.

Grid Focus Blogger Theme

Blogger Buster’s fantastic new Grid Focus theme has been added to the blogger theme section. It’s a great clean looking theme which I’m sure many of you will be keen on using. You can check out a demo of the theme here.

Google FeedBurner problem

Yesterday my feedburner account got migrated to my google account. It seems that Google has got some teething problems with it just now as today all of my feedcounts read 0. I can’t check stats at all and the feedcount on BloggingTips reads 380 instead of around 2,700. I’m sure that this will be sorted in a few days so if this has happened to you, don’t be too alarmed

Kontera

After trying out Kontera for a week I have decided to remove it from BloggingTips. The links were a little too obtrusive and many visitors were not happy with them so they had to be removed. Remember, if there is anything on BloggingTips you like or dislike, please let me know
