Sharing My Google Reader

I just added a widget that shows the items I've shared in Google Reader. I've been thinking about adding one for a while, but then forget about it or can't find the page to get the code. The only problem is, now that it's on my sidebar, I realize that I haven't shared anything for a while, I guess because there wasn't much point in sharing if no one was seeing it.

Now that I've got the widget, I'll have to be sure to share all the interesting and helpful posts I read. They might just be something you're interested in, like Myrtle beach hotel deals, awesome giveaways, yummy-sounding recipes, or funny stories, so keep an eye on the widget in the sidebar to see what's catching my eye.

You're Being Tracked Now

I logged into Google Analytics today, and it's working now. I'm guessing it just doesn't work when you put the code in a widget, and it needs to be right in the html? Or the code changed. Or something. (Obviously something)

I'm still unsure about most things. Do I have to use the widgets for things? Or can I just put it in the code like I'm used to? Trial and error, I guess.

No Visitors Since 8/17?

I just logged into my Google Analytics account and noticed that it stopped tracking everything the day I switched to the New Blogger. What is that about? I copied the code into a widget, but that doesn't seem to be working. So now I deleted that widget and copied the code directly into the html. I hope that works. Is anybody using Analytics with your blog? How did you make it work?

I went looking for Analytics widgets gadgets, but they all said they were broken.

Does This Widget Work?

I saw this widget on Lady Banana, and thought it would be interesting to see it come up with some tags for my blog. I see that Diana has since taken it off her blog, but I think it was working on hers. Since I put the widget in my sidebar, it has just said that tags will be available soon. I guess their definition of soon and my definition of soon are really different.

I'm not completely giving up on this thing. I removed it from my sidebar, but I'm posting it here. Since I recently changed my blog to show the last 30 days of posts - however many that may be up to 999 - this widget will have 30 days to prove itself before it moves off the front page. I think I'm being rather generous.

Edit: (12/06/07) I have removed the stupid widget because it never did anything. I have visited other blogs where it did work, but nothing ever happened here.

BlogRush

Looking for more traffic? Or just to network with related blogs? You might want to try BlogRush. I just signed up and added the widget to my sidebar. We'll see how it works.

About BlogRush:
BlogRush is a free service that was created to help bloggers solve their #1 need:
More Readers For Their Blog.

By adding the BlogRush Widget to a blog, a blogger can get instant distribution for their latest blog post titles across a network of related blogs.

BlogRush users earn "syndication credits" (the right to have their blog post titles shown inside a widget on another related blog) based on their own traffic (loads of the widget) as well as the traffic of other users they refer to BlogRush. Users can automatically refer others to BlogRush via special links on the widget, as well as through the promotion of a special referral URL they are given.

BlogRush is a "Cooperative Syndication Network" that rewards its users for their contributions to the network -- from the impressions they provide of the BlogRush Widget to the referral of other users through 10 'generations' of activity and the impressions of the widget that they provide. BlogRush was designed to be incredibly viral and to provide its users with tremendous distribution leverage to receive exposure for their blog content (onto related content blogs) that they could never achieve on their own; at least without a massive advertising budget.

BlogRush is the brainchild of Internet entrepreneur, John Reese. Mr. Reese is the founder and CEO of Income.com, a soon to be launched social network and media company for entrepreneurs. BlogRush is the first Web property of the Income.com Network, a network of sites and services to help entrepreneurs and business owners succeed. Income.com is based in Orlando, Florida.
