My Blog List

*Warning: The following color scheme may cause permanent damage to your personal opinions of this MSN Space. As a result, the author of this MSN Space will not be held accountable for his intentional misuse of color. Read at your own risk... just like you do when you see how most people add color to their website with their eyes closed. FYI: Links are in pink.

Okay... I'm tired of having to remember everyone's blog urls and I don't want to do a "blogroll" (basically a list of blogs much like a person's "favorites" or "bookmarks" for websites).  Being a web-head techie dude...  I am tired of "Favorites", "Bookmarks", and now "Blog Rolls".  They really suck.  I need a better way of organizing the thousands of links!  And, since I don't have the time (won't take the time) to write my own kick-ass website program for managing them, I've done a few things...

1. I added a "Blog List" to here, my MSN Space.  Now, I don't want everyone getting all upset because their blog isn't listed.  There are some really great blogs out there and I love visiting them, but I'm only listing the ones I WANT to list for MY OWN reasons.  Besides, the goal is to NOT have a list 500 links long...  So, don't be commenting things like, "Eric - You're site really rocks!!!  I added you to my blog list. (hint, hint)  I'll hate you if you don't add me!"  Or, "Where the hell is my blog?  I comment all the time, so I deserve to be on your list!"
2. I FINALLY wrote my OWN homepage about 2 months ago on my "localhost" web server.  So, no more depending on another website and no depending on internet connectivity either (to know links to my localhost programs).  The link list is very compact and doesn't include obvious sites or sites I don't use on a weekly basis.  I did this once before long ago, but decided to do it again and actually am using it.
3. I have been using the "Search Prefixes" for Internet Explorer through the "Tweak UI" utility for Windows XP forever now and I love them!  Not just for search engines either... shopping, movies, weather, maps, yellow pages, etc.  If you're not familiar with them, they are similiar to what a toolbar offers you in terms of entering some text and selecting which site to send you to.  But, I don't need the obnoxious toolbar. (FYI: The FireFox feature for this is really well integrated, but that's not my primary browser since it's not the primary browser of my software's clients)
