New Guest Editor's Picks for 7/22 and More

Hi all. As posted in the Journals Message Board, our new
Guest Editor for this week (and her picks) are up on
the Journals Main
Page.

Leading the way is Guest Editor
Jaime, "...the chick with the four kids who lives in Alaska:"

(Apologies
to all previous Guest Editors for not including their photos in this
here blog. I didn't think of it until now.)



Her blog is JaimeChase.com:
A ChaseNKids Production, and here is her
blog entry, where she talks about her top picks and
more:

* Accidental
Mother
* The Goofy Side
of Motherhood
* A Vision
Incarnate
* My Life
in a 'Nut' Shell
* Thought
Salad
* This Fish Needs a
Bicycle

Jaime's theme is blogs written by
wonder women (her

term): different women going through different things in their lives,

unified by their ability to blog and tell people about what's going
on.

(As an aside, another of her top picks [which
you can see in her blog entry] is http://thefoodwhore.com

-- it's a blog by a caterer, it was supposed to go in the Top 6 on the

main page, but it kept timing out when I tried to view it. It seems to

work okay now.)

In other news, the idea of a
mid-week refresh of the Top 6 seems to have gotten a
universal thumbs-down, so I will continue to try to
find other ways to highlight blogs on the main page.


This sort of relates to the big open
whitespace which was on the Journals Main Page; it's gone, but only
because I temporarily yanked the AOL News BlogZone module (you can
always jump directly to BlogZone.)




The point is, the HTML publishing tools we're using give us the

flexibility to try adding in new modules and features; we aren't

limited by the size of the page (unlike in the Rainman days); we're

only

limited by our ability to keep things updated in a timely fashion, so

we'll keep adding modules and features to the main page so we can

feature more of your blog content and other cool
stuff.

That's about it for right now -- thanks, and
have a great weekend. -- Joe
