This blog has only been up and running for about a month, and I'm already having to re-assess and make some changes. But I figure it's better to do that now while there is probably no one reading it anyway than to do it sometime in the future when I (hopefully) have readers. I've been looking closely at some of the blogs I read and enjoy on a daily basis and have decided that I need an overarching theme and a gimmick. For example, one blog I absolutely love, The Happiness Project, makes every Wednesday tip day. So I'm going to go off and do a little brainstorming this weekend on what my weekly "thing" could be. I also want to be completely upfront and honest here - this blog is going to be used to make money. First, I've joined Google AdSense. I haven't set it up yet, but I will this weekend. Second, I'm working toward blogging at least three times a week so that I can join Blogitive. Blogitive gives you opportunities to review other websites and products in your blog, and get paid to do so! Not all of my blog posts are going to be based on Blogitive, and I will always make clear when they are. I'm not in this to fool anyone - I'm in it to get experience blogging and make a little money while I do it. So stay tuned, by Monday this blog will have changed a bit, and I'll be ready to unveil my new "once-a-week gimmick."
