Frankenmuth News Blog
Frankenmuth, Michigan News
I am totally overwhelmed right now. There is absolutely so much content on the web for blogging and such, I jus' end up bouncing around bookmarking sites, and surfing like a madman. I see how this has become an important pastime to some. It is very fascinating and interesting just how many tools there are out there. There are so many creative people that are CONTRIBUTING to this community of well educated individuals by developing new tools to spread information more quickly and reliably. For those of us that love to speed read interesting sites and have an attention span in the millisecond range this is a beautiful thing. I'm not really sure what this site is going to turn into, but at the rate it is going I am hoping it will be very content heavy in a month or so. I guess it will be a personal homepage if it does not get turned into a community, but I would really like to see it turn into a place for websavvy individuals to share thoughts and ideas. Well, I think that's about it for this eve. I'll be surfing and researching again tomorrow.....if you read this.....make a post under the community section!!

I just added a "Blogsnob" link to my site to hopefully help drum up a little traffic. Just came across it, and it seems like a good idea. There are truely some wonderful creative people in the world. Nice looking site by Arnab too.....This guy's only 19 years old too.....I'm sure he's got big things to come. Thanks for a cool tool, and I'll let ya know how well it works.

Today I'll be researching rss/xml now that I got my title lines working........I am going to continue to add content to this site if I get the chance....there are so many tools on the web for designers....and a lot of them are actually GOOD AND USEFUL too!! Well....the more I yap here the less work I get done.....so I'll try to post later.
My other final idea to add to the list is to research mysql or anything else that may be used for database driven dynamically created pages. I know there has to be a free or at least reasonable way to do this, and I'd really love to find out how. Okay....I'm done for now.

I'm gettin' some great new links up under the tools section.....It's amazing how many tools really are available when you are looking for them. Some people on the web are actually altruistic, and not just trying to make a buck. I am also reviewing link exchanges and the likes, to see if there are means of bringing traffic without selling a site out too awfully much.

I have made a few upgrades today........I purchased Blogger Pro.....if only to throw a little money to Blogger for providing a wonderful service. I believe with the infrastructure of internet technology, weblogs will truly be a powerful force in the world of new media marketing and communication. I am hoping to tap into this power by utilizing this technology and establishing a userbase of like-minded webprofessionals. I also implemented two other features onto my blog today.....enetation from enetation.co.uk is used so users can post comments to this Blog......bloglet from bloglet.com is used as an website form so users may sign up to get email reports about the site's weblog. The tools available on the web are truely amazing. The people that write these applications are just people like you and I.....sitting in front of a monitor with a little dedication, and an idea that they think could possibly make a difference and become a breakthrough. There is a wealth of information available on the web.....there is also an overabundance of crap and misinformation.......This is one of the beauties of a weblog......you can see a person's true colors.....not for their physical appearance or charm, but rather for the relevance and value of their intelligence and thoughts.
It is better to stay quiet and be thought a fool, than to open your mouth and remove all doubt.

I am further researching website promotion and marketing today.......there is so much information on the web sometimes it can be very overwhelming.....we truely have access to any information at our fingertips if we have the patience and dedication to finding it. I have started my search for successful marketing tactics for websites, and I am looking for a blogger community dedicated to this topic. I have come across several good links pages, and I am in the process of skimming through each......posts will begin soon.
