SOB Buttons and Directory Update 2

No Worries The SOB Directory Page

The Directory is coming along and looking fine. Go on it. Check it out! But it would be looking grand, if I got more of your bios in. So start sending them . . . . hint, hint, grin, grin. 🙂

Surely you must have 1-2 sentences description of your blog from some directory listing on your computer. Dust it off and send it along. It will get featured as others did last week. Think of it as free advertising to a substantial future readership. grin grin, hint, hint,.

By the way, if you’d have a better version of your logo feel free to send that too. Only one restriction–60 pixels high and not more than 200 pixels wide is what fits.

In case you don’t know where to send them . . .e-mail them to me at lizsun2@gmail.com.

The SOB Button Still Exists

If you are an official SOB and need a new one. Here you go.

By the way, please feel free to slightly adjust the size to fit your blog design. We want SOBs to have Successful and Outstanding Blog Designs too. (And Rob at Jamdo, it would look great in your sidebar below your ad space–hint, hint, grin, grin)

Successful Duncan Riley

By now you must have heard about the secret auction held to sell the

Blog Herald Logo

to an as yet to be named new owner for what is being reported at over $70,000 USD.

Congratulations Duncan Riley on building an enterprise and a brand valued so highly. I think that officially qualifies you as an SOB–a Successful and Outstanding Blogger. I hereby award you with the badge of honor and your name on this blog forever.

Duncan’s Blog Herald has been on my reading list almost since the day I started blogging. It’s a one-of-a kind read that holds the niche of understanding the blogosphere and reporting on blogs around the world. I’ll miss reading Duncan’s take on things. I’ll miss having Duncan around.

On the other hand, it couldn’t happen to a better guy.

Duncan shares some of his reasons and reflections on the sale at these links, which I’ve tried to place in chronological order.

Seriously, Duncan all badges aside. I’ll miss reading you at 2:30 a.m. up here by Lake Michigan. So once you guys get b5 going strong, I’ll be looking for your new blog.

Best of Luck Always.
Liz

SOB Buttons and Directory Update

The SOB Directory and other pages are under construction. New Pictures. New Presentations. I thought it best to keep the Directory undercover until I got more of your bios in. So start sending them . . . . hint, hint, grin. 🙂
