Google+ is now my blog

Well I’ve gone and done it, I’ve now pointed my domains to my +Google+ page. Specifically to a search address that shows all the tidy stuff (not the status update-like posts etc.). My other blogs (WordPress.com being the main one) are sitting there/here collecting dust and no one reads them plus I’m always on Google+ so it [...]

My New Sites: The Proper Launch

It’s been a long time coming but I’ve finally, finally sorted myself out and got my sites up and running.  They’ve gone through many changes, disappeared a couple of times and swapped around a lot.  But they are all ready to go.  So here they are: My Home Page at koltregaskes.com: My Photography Home Page [...]

The last site updates post?

I’m hoping this is the last site updates post I need to share for a while.  I should be able to use this blog as a blog from now on.  So lets quickly go through the last bits I’ve update this weekend: The biggest has not really been on the site itself.  I painstakingly updated [...]

You might have noticed that I uploaded a bunch of posts dated September 2010 during the weekend.  These were intended to posted last year but unforseen circumstances preventing me.  They basically described the process I went through and was going to go through to reboot my blogs and sites.  If you are interested you might [...]

Which profile page?

I’m in a dilemna.  As I don’t have my own (self-hosted) home page I’m currently pointing my koltregaskes.com domain to my About.me page here.  But I forgot, I forget that I had a Gravatar page here. I was pointing to the Gravatar page previously but upon deeper investigation I quite like the About.me page.  What’s [...]

Blogging and Google+

You’ve probably been living under a rock if you’ve not heard of the new social ‘layer’ from Google called Google+.  An amazing FriendFeed-like service (well it is to a FFer ) for sharing and interacting with posts from other users.  But how will this affect bloggers and blogging? Unlike other social networking and media sites, Google+ is pretty generous [...]

Blogging and Facebook

So I’ve asked about blogging services. I’ve asked about where to share but how about Facebook specifically?

Where do you share your blog posts?

Following on from my questions about blogging software and services here my next question is about where you share your posts to. I have no strategy at all on this, at least not any kind of organised one.  What I currently do is post to the WordPress.com blog first, grab the bit.ly URL via their [...]

What blogging software and services do you use?

Hopefully I’ll start blogging a bit more going forward (well anything more than nothing is more for me ). So going to post a few blogging-related questions. First is what software or service you use to write your blogs? What do you use to write with and what do you use to help you produce the article (e.g. to research, find related articles, find images to use, etc.)?
