Blogolution

Those of you who read this blog here, at it's own site rather than on a RSS feed like my wife, may have noticed that I've been tinkering a bit with the layout and features.

Nothing earth-shattering, but for a while I had neat little Amazon widgets over on the sidebar with direct links to some of my books, and a link to my Amazon Wish List. Well, after a short trial run, they're gone. Aside from the utter shamelessness of the Wish List's presence on my blog, the links to Amazon seemed to really slow down the loading of the page, and for me, anyway, seemed to cause my browser to lock up sometimes. Besides, I already have text links to Amazon in the "Buy My Books" section over there, so the widgets seemed to be overkill.

Today I added a couple of new widgets, though. I think these will be helpful to you guys, especially if you have any interest in what I may be posting over in my Guns In The Gutters or Planet X Production Blog. These widgets display the headlines of my most recent posts to those blogs, so you can quickly see from right here when I've updated them and whether the new post is of any interest to you.

Anyway, I'm sure I'll be tinkering with this site off and on indefinitely, but I wanted to mention these new features and get your feedback on them, if you've got any.
