Your blog annoys me

Things that annoy me about your blog.

  1. Put your name in your url or the title of your blog. I have trouble remembering who writes which blog, please help.
  2. Publish a fulltext feed. Summary feeds are annoying.
  3. Don’t do stuff that make all your posts pop up as new in my aggregator. This is especially annoying when you switch back and forth between fulltext and summary.
  4. Publish your email on your blog. I might like to email you sometime.
  5. Tell us where you live (city/state will do). More specific location info is really good. I keep meeting fellow bloggers who I live surprisingly close to.
  6. Put a pic of yourself up somewhere. I’d like to recognize you if ever we encounter each other. (I know there are probably some people who would feel uncomfortable doing this. Fine.)

    Items 2-5 I already do. Item 1 is out of the question, sorry. Would it help if I just register my name and then redirect to the default blog? We could try and do that…ok, done – now there’s a markussandy.com (will probably take a day or so to progate the DNS entry). Thanks, I needed to do that.

    This is good. You reminded me that I had multiple domain names of multiple incarnations of my name, and I should start using them.

    Markus-
    You could put your name in the title of your blog, too- just put it somewhere prominent so that it doesn’t take me an hour to figure out who you are.
