more or less
Cathy wanted some easy stuff for teens who haven't ever cooked .. they can use a phone but not a stove apparently.
Me I can cook because you can't eat a phone.
Lets see what else is new? I'm going to be getting a new desk soon ... soon err yeah well soon hopefully
this will be my last spend, ain't spending any more coin on anything bigger than groceries and bills.
Must have a new desk though this one oh gawd I think its as old as I am, got a piece of wood stuck on the front for the keyboard another loose one over the top drawer or I'd have a gap things would fall off.
Been leaving the desk because well its got a pooter on it hasn't it and well can't be without pooter now can we.
It was alright being without a lounge chair because the shop had to order a two seater in and I had to wait 3 months for it, that was ok but I ain't going without computer for three months the house would be spotless can't have that.
I got bored with Twitter you know, it was ok early on before every man and the dog and the dogs dog had it, now its blah
Kinda miss blogging a bit but its hard to write now, lost it you know the incentive to write about anything
lost 360 and then Multiply, so end up on Facebook playing games, so I add all these people who play games and actual relatives and people I know in real life who either post stuff thats so boring it hurts or so cryptic that you've no idea what they are on about, only you can't ask or you'll look stupid which is the point of course they want you to look as dumb as they think you are.
You know I can post up a photo of a flower and get more likes on Facebook than something profound, maybe I should share someone elses photo of a flower with something profound written on it rather than taking my own, clear professional looking photos that I've taken myself.
You know I got told that my photos were boring ok maybe they are but at least I can use a camera a proper camera not some blurry sideways mobile phone photo
This is one of mine, the rest that I've uploaded to G plus spose you want a link? go here to see

How to add stuff to your Blogger page...post 2
Comments Feed thingy
On Wordpress its a module that you can add but on Blogger you have to add them a different way and if you have a Google reader its fairly easy
Add the feed for comments into your Google reader the link will be like this http://blogaddictsanon.blogspot.com/feeds/comments/default
obviously you change the site name for yours so Dana's comment feed would be
http://danasvoice.blogspot.com/feeds/comments/default
Your site address with /feeds/comments/default on the end
Change the name of the subscription to "comments for" so you don't get confuddled with the blog feed, make sure its in a public folder or blog or the feed it won't work.
Click on the Manage Subscriptions link, tick the box for comments feed you just added, tick the "add clip to your site" link and a pop up box will appear.
This is the fun part where you choose what colours and what title you want, then you can click the "add to Blogger" link and have Blogger add the code for you or do it yourself (copy paste into a html module on your page)
Bit of a mess around but once you have done it its done and your recent comments will appear on your Blogger blog.
Don't ask me how you can do it if you use something else I'm assuming you can use YPipes or use Feedburner to do the same thing .... a feed is a feed comments or blog.
Update: If you want an easy way click add page element>> add feed
I can't see "add page element" on Firefox so forgot you could do that .... **DoH**
Quick Comments
I had a look on the Blogger Help pages and found a couple of different things that you can use
First one is guestbooks but like any webpage they should be on a different page
The other is called a Tagboard of course like the Guestbooks you need to sign up in order to get the code but once you have you can grab the code for the box like I have on the right, had to put it on the right as it got squished on the left (template issue) The one I'm using there is called Tag Board.com its fairly simple and if you know a little HTML you can change it around a bit, like the "TAG" button you can change that to say "post" if you wanted to. It's free of course (you know me its gotta be free) but you can pay and get IP banning etc.
Of course if you get the free one you might get some numbnuts decide they want to play on it so all you do is log in to TagBoard and re-do it, think re-pasting code will do the same but if it does clear it I can't test it don't want to clear mine yet.
Of course you can use a TagBoard on any site where you can put it, MySpace profiles for instance but remember it is PUBLIC and anyone can post on it.
Authors
You can have others post on your page, great for a blog like Bloggers Anonymous or if you want to set up a writers page or post on a cooking page like Tastebuds
All you need to do is go into your Blogger permissions page and add an author, you will need an email address for them. Blogger will send them an email asking if they want to be an author and they say yes or no.
You can even grant them admin privileges after they say yes so they can add things to the page other than posting blogs.
The blog will come up on their Blogger profile with their name as an author, some pages have a pile of authors
If you want to be included as an author and you haven't been asked ask! Don't ask don't get! Just don't forget your email address you can't get permission without it and of course you have to have a Blogger account don't have to have a blog just an account.
Tags.
On 360 all your tags have to be-one-word or one_word you can't put spaces or Capitals here you can, you can tag your posts as My Dog, Base Ball Heroes or By the Sea, you can also go into your list of posts and tag all of them at once or 10 at a time, so say you posted a pile of old 360 posts here on Blogger go into your list of posts and tick the boxes for them (draft OR posted doesn't matter) and label them "posts from 360" and Blogger will tag them all at once! No more lost posts because you forgot to tag em and no more silly looking tags. As you might notice I'm so used to doing my tags the 360 way most of mine are-like-this LoL old habits die hard.
Of course if you blog on Wordpress it will make you a cloud, Blogger doesn't do that and I missed my tag cloud so much I found a site that makes em and put one on my Blogger but it was a pain a BIG pain to do (it should be at the bottom of this page)
Ok that's it I think ...flippin hope so anyway
Bloggers Anonymous has some other sites that may help you with your Blogger page and any other web site for that matter and a few more things to help with blogging in general have been added to Chronicknightmare

Moved things around
but just a little bit different as I can't get a clock anymore the link doesn't work, so the clock on my Shorts is stuck on the wrong time (its an hour fast)
Moved the animators around down to the bottom oooohhh and I've put a counter on just don't take any notice of the number the counter is the same one as what I have on my shorts it umm said that many on there, well blow getting another one I just use that one but I don't know how to set it back to zero do I, don't care though it looks good it's pretty and its got an amount on it don't care what the amount is as far as I know the number should be 10x that, flip knows and really I don't care just as long as its there
Google has bought out Feedburner
so my feeds are now rolled into one if you subscribed via the atom link at the bottom of the page here your subscription now shows on my feed burner my subscribers just jumped to 6 and tastebuds to 5 whoopie!!Oh as fire fox won't let me edit my layout I've got my blog open in IE and firefox it looks a bit squished on IE so if you see it squished its because of IE so get firefox! LoL

click that it will take you to firefox site
I'm having a rest from posting at the moment got 10 waiting as draft besides you don't want them all at once do you .. no you don't but I've been going through my posts on 360 and there where a few I decided were "keepers" so watch here and my shorts for more stories obviously older ones as they are all from 360 but I know some of you haven't seen them before.
And you know what if this dang space bar doesn't stop sticking down I'm throwing this keyboard away its a flipping nuisance, oh well at least it isn't making a space when it sticks down it's just not bouncing back up but its noisy as well, I'm surprised the bird doesn't make the noise hehehe
Any way I did have like 6 windows open just then ..wondered why there was a draft and I wonder why I have 6 readers ... you guys as mad as I am?
Oh yeah if there is anything you want to see on here umm music? I've got an Imeem as well you know or pictures got Flickr maybe adds you want add sense on here?? naa don't want that who wants adds, news maybe? Na too boring maybe videos?
I dunno need something more I think or maybe less .. I know less talk more sleep it's 1am ..I'll shut up and go to bed .. hows that
