My Blogs

So here's the deal with blogging... I miss it BUT, I'm laying down some pretty strict rules for myself. When I was blogging fulltime at Modblog and then efx2 (may it rest in peace or reincarnate itself) I ended up investing too many hours from my day in order to "keep up" with all of my fave bloggers. In truth there are only a handful that I really look forward to reading on a daily basis. The others were "return reads." You know how it goes: A blogger stops by, reads what you've written and leaves you a nice comment. Now you feel obligated to return the favor. Perhaps I'm the only one who felt obligated but in the end, I was spending too much time reading blogs instead of writing my own and then stepping away from the computer.

I had stumbled onto Aeonity last year when I was blog shopping. I even have a couple blogs here that I did nothing with and abandoned.

Perhaps I'll have my betzography domain name point here since I'm now a bit at odds with making it my photography site.

I started running it through my head and figured that people would inevitably begin to say Betzography photography... when searching for me.

UGH.. that's just horrible sounding. So I'm going with Bet Rank Photography and using a 3rd party management site- Smug Mug for my business endeavors. It's got everything I need and the community at Dgrin is amazing!

Enough chatter for now. I need to do a bit of shopping.

Okay so bear with me as I tear into this silly blog template.

The choices are less than stellar here but rather than gripe about the lack of style, I shall allow myself the plunge into creating a new template.

Hold onto a loved one... it will no doubt be a bumpy ride.

I was curious so I went to www.efx2.com and was immediately redirected.

Keith has a post up folks about the rebirth of efx2. In a nutshell... there's a new domain: www.efx2blogs.com and due to the phishing scam, he's no longer able to use his coding.

He's switched to Wordpress MU.

Don't know about the rest of you but I happen to adore WP and have become very fond of the templates, plugins and widgets available. WP is what powers my photoblog and I'm hoping that I'll now be able to host it in a community with the template I have.

So check it out efxers... Keith hasn't given up on the blog community.
