In Lightening’s Blogworld This Week
I came across this free offer during the week. If you’re considering entrecard or would like a 125×125 graphic to use for advertising your blog in any other way, EzMoneyOn.Net is offering a range of free banner ads you can save and make use of.
Fussy has just launched a new blog called The Gentle Art of Ruling Your Husband featuring some wonderful thoughts and ideas for wives and wives to be. 
Mrs Fussypants always has a great way of expressing her ideas so it’s well worth a visit.
I have been enjoying a number of Ben Barden’s blogging articles of late. In particular his Quick Tips where he has mentioned a few little changes you can make to improve things on your blog. I think things like this article are great, particularly for those who haven’t been blogging long. They’re things you perhaps might not have thought of that can make quite a difference. And being nice and short, they’re easy to read and take in. I find it difficult on some blogs about blogging when they write in-depth articles on topics that are way beyond me. So this was a refreshing change.
I must like what Ben has to say because I notice I have 12 articles marked “keep new” in my bloglines folder and I haven’t been reading his blog all that long. 
Also updated this week were the Top 100 Australian Blogs Index and the Top 100 Australian Women Blogs . These lists are updated once a month and provide some interesting reading if you’re in the market for some new blogs to read.
Congratulations to the following blogs who have featured in the Top 100 Australian Blogs Index for the first time:
- Aussie Bloggers
- Neil Duckett
- Notjustmama.net
- The Original Mx5
- Lightening
- Schwoit - Gardening and Geekdom in the Urban Jungle
- Hobart Daily
- My Big World of Crap
Yeah, my other blog made it up there too - much to my shock and amazement!!!
I won’t list the new blogs for the Top 100 Australian Women Bloggers as they went from 50 to 100 this month so the list is quite long!!! You can find the list of newbies at All For Women.
Interesting threads on the Aussie Bloggers Forum this week
The debate continues about the benefits of Entrecard, with many bloggers dropping like flies as they succumb to the lure of traffic that Entrecard is bringing to other Aussie Bloggers.
While we’re on the topic of Entrecard, there is also an interesting thread of what NOT to do with your Entrecard.
And just so you don’t think ALL we do is talk about Entrecard (), there is a great thread on Blogging and Sleep Disorders as well as a discussion on Google Bombing (which I had never even heard of until this discussion).
And that’s just a tiny sample of the great discussion happening over there. If you’re not already a forum member, feel free to pop on over and join up. You’re sure to receive a warm welcome!
And that’s it for my wrap-up of my Blogworld this week. Hope you’ve all had a great one!

Ben - you are more than welcome. 
Ian - you’ve done very well.
Meg - ROFLOL. That sounds hilarious given that I always think of you as one of the “cool kids”. 
I LOVE your entrecard by the way.
Aw thanks for saying that 
I tried to come up with something catchy for my card - I’m no graphic designer!
Tina and Greg, you are more than welcome. Congratulation on the success of your blogs. And thanks for dropping by.
