Blogging Year in Review

Filed under: Blogging — by Glenda at 10:16 pm on Monday, December 31, 2007

2007 was an amazing year for me in terms of blogging! Here are a few trivial stats as the year ends:

There are currently 128 posts and 1,222 comment, contained within 10 categories.
Akismet has protected the blog from 94,340 spam comments (if only I could find a way to generate an income from these!).
The top ten entry pages are:

#1 Home Page
#2 Virtual Book Tour Takes Glenda to New Zealand
#3 Frosty Gets Caught – Go figure!
#4 9 Ways to Use Social Media to Campaign for Votes
#5 Gift Ideas for Youth with Disabilities
#6 What We Can Learn from Rudolph
#7 I’ll Do It Myself: The Book – Copies are still available!
#8 Viva Las Vegas!
#9 The Cost of Transitioning from Silent to Verbal
#10 5 Lessons Iâ€™ve Learned about Blogging This Year

I would like to sincerely thank the following people for contributing to this blog by adding your comments. You made this blogging year a success and very rewarding. Thank you.

Amazingly I am only half way through creating this list, but I need to go ring in the New Year with my husband. I will post the remaining list later this week.

Wishing you all the best in 2008!

If you enjoyed this post, consider buying me a chai tea latte. Thanks kindly.

Happy New Year to you and Darrell, Glenda!

It has been a fantabulous (I’ve heard it. It must be a word. 🙂 ) year. May 2008 be as good or better for us all.

Warmest wishes to you and your whole family. I believe in all that has not been done and said; I believe in the power that emanates from a mind aligned with spirit; and the ability that a generous heart has to conquer anything.

Happy New Year, Glenda. You are a true inspiration and force. Thank you.

Glenda- you have continued to blow me away, with your travel, your social media efforts, with all the kindness you give to me and others. Thank you for being a total champion in this space, and for simply demonstrating what can be done in the medium. Your post about going from silent to nonverbal was amazing. (And I loved the “bobbing for invisible apples” visual!)

I can’t wait to run into you again in person somewhere in 2008. My deepest and best wishes to you for this coming year.

Glenda you are inspiration. I think you type more sage words with one thumb than I do will all my digits combined!

I hope to run into you when I venture to the Mainland this (new) year.

Glenda, words cannot express the admiration and appreciation that I have for you. The brass ring is something different for everyone but your example of living life to its fullest, pursuing your dreams, and fighting for what is right give direction and footsteps for others to follow. I am honored to know you. Thank you for everything! Blessings for you and your family in 2008.
