There are probably a few of you out there who’ve been wondering what happened to the author of this series over the past two days. Honestly, it ws something called a weekend, and a teething one year old… It was my actual life, and those can interrupt even the most dedicated of us. I deviated from the “plan” and this little experiment may suffer a bit for it, though honestly, I don’t expect anyone to work nonstop for 30 days straight. Time off is good for the soul. It recharges the batteries and clears the mind. It’s necessary.
Had I thought of it, I would have set this blog to post new content over the weekend. This is something that WordPress excels at. (If you don’t know how to do that, just wait, I’ll be writing about it soon.) The problem was, I didn’t know that I wouldn’t be writing this weekend. My plans were to run straight through. The problem with plans is that they don’t always work out.
The point really is. It doesn’t matter. Even if you’ve started along with me on this and for some reason you end up missing a few days in the process, there’s no reason not to simply pick back up and soldier on from that point, which is exactly what I’m going to do.
The plan for the day, write one more post. Be sure that that post cites information on at least one other blog that relates to each website, and make bloody sure that I send a trackback or a pingback to that site, to let them know I mentioned them. With any luck the site author will hop over to see what I’ve said.
The second step is as described in the previous entry in this series. I’m going to go find 5 blogs I’ve never commented on for each of my two blogs (yup, ten total) and leave a comment there. I’m going to be sure that those comments are relevant, are appropriate to the blog I leave them at, and that I’ve added my site address to my comment information. (Not in the text of the comment, with the exceptions we’ve already noted.)
That’s it kiddies. Day three is about getting started in a big way. Day four gets even more fun.
Stay tuned!

Welcome back. It’s like John Lennon said…Life is what happens when your busy making other plans. Honestly, family and fun HAVE to come first.
Looking forward you your next posts.
Thanks!
Actually, I’ve had to force myself to do weekends, and I plan to continue.
I’ll be getting the next in the series up in just a bit!
