I "Heart" The Kitty Blogosphere

I am so overwhelmed about how nice the kitties in the blogosphere are!  All of the comments were so encouraging and so nice that it made my little kitty heart swell with happiness.  Me and Mommy read all of the comments and Mommy made links to all of our new friends!  It's going to be fun to visit with everyone!  Many of you have blogs that I have read for a long time, but as I said in some of my comments, it's just been in the last month or so that I have found my "voice."  Mommy says she has an awful lot to learn about blogging, but I told her to just get busy!  So, with that said, we have some questions for you experienced cats.

  1. Is this smaller font a better idea?  We notice a lot of people use a smaller font than us.
  2. Does ANYONE else out there use Blog.com?  So far, we aren't too happy with it, but we already paid for it. How hard would it be to move our stuff to another place?  We think Blog.com doesn't do what it should (like let Mommy put a photo on my blog from her photos in her computer - grrrrrr!).
  3. Those codes for things like Thursday 13?  Is that hard to add to our blog if we want to do it?
  4. Is there anywhere that sells tuna flavored ice cream? Laughing Hi Daisy!

Thanks again for the warm welcome yesterday - you kitties really are cool!

Keep you tails held high and your fake mousies close!

It isn't tuna, but Mum knows a place in Maine that has lobster ice cream! (Comment this)

2 - We are so glad that you are blogging, Parker! We use Blogger, and it is free, and seems to have few problems...Also, the Thursday Thirteen Logos, you can google images and lots of them will show up, and then just save the images and post them as pictures... (Comment this)

3 - Hi! we use bloggerDOTcom because it is free. it can be a pain sometimes but usually goes smoothly. I think your small font is easy to read. Skeezix and some computer savvy kitties have created wwwDOTcatbloghelpDOTblogspotDOTcom which is a great resource for us blogging kitties. You can find the answer to almost any question there (we gotta' find that tuna!).
Don't worry, I've got my fake mousie "buried" for later under my old towel (long story short - mommy and daddy put a towel under the coffee table so it wouldn't dent the kitchen floor when they shampooed the carpet. I love it so much, it has stayed there looking all gross and torn for months! I sleep on it, bury myself under it and store my toys there.) (Comment this)

4 - Mr. Hendrix, Blogger is FREE?!? Blog gives a free basic service, but I had to upgrade if I wanted to do ANYTHING except put photos in an album. Mommy is really wondering if she's smart enough to move all of my stuff from blog to blogger. Hmmmmmm. (Comment this)

5 - Hi, Parker. I saw your URL over at Skeezix's and came on over. I am very glad to meet you and will add you to my links. I'm afraid I can't help you with your questions, as I just started blogging myself a little while ago. I second the suggestion of going over to the Cat Blog Help Center. I found it extremely useful when I was setting up my blog. (Comment this)

6 - Oh Parker, the cats in the cat blogosphere are very nice! I am so happy you are making new friends, and I am glad I met you. I use Blogger too. It took me a little while to figure everything out though! The Cat Blog Help Center is great, so that will help you a little. Your blog looks really pretty though, I like the pale green color.

I will let you know if I am able to invent Tuna Ice Cream. My laboratory is pretty messy right now... (Comment this)

7 - Hi there - thanks for the email and a pleasure to meet you! I am new to blogging too and have learned a lot from the other cats on here as well as the cat blogosphere. I use blogspot.com cos it is free and seems pretty user friendly!

Looking forward to hearing more from you!

8 - Parker,

Last yeer win I was having lots of problems with Blogger (thare "New" blogger is much much better), I investigayted switching to anuther blog platform, and after trying all of them owt and waying all the pros and cons, I deesided to stay with blogger. I rekommend riting off blog.com as an ixperiment that didn't werk owt and switch to blogger. (Try blogger owt ferst to see how yoo like it). Yoo don't wunt to end up with a lot of cats having yer link on thare blogrolls, then switch to a diffrint blog platform, and the links point to a ded blog. Sinse yoo don't have that many blog entreez yet (copying them over shood be pritty qwik to do), switching won't be that bad. But switching, say, 6 munths or a yeer frum now will be a pane, and yoo'll looze owt in serch enjine optimizayshun, too.

With Blogger, yoo'll git a lot more traffic, and better serch enjine optimizayshun. And, it's free free free. I'll think yoo'll be much happier with it. (Comment this)

10 - I say follow what Skeezix says, he's really smart! Wordpress is another one we tried working with and we would have switched to but we have so many followers on our current blogs we decided against it. I hope it all works out for you! We're certainly glad you're joining us!! (Comment this)
