Music Gates ...are wide open...because music knows no barriers.
I too am a blogspot blogger (http://www.musiconmyradar.com/) and I have spent countless hours working out the little knicks and crannies to try to better streamline my blog. This is what I have learned through my experience that might also help you:…

Haha that mom is a champ! I agree, a blog twitter is completely redundant. This is what I'm thinking though. I think that I am going to keep the blog twitter, purely for the fact that it is just another way that people can share your blog to …

Multi-blog weekly playlist. Anyone interested?
I like it. I'll rip off an e-mail soon. Gotta wait for this wave of homework to go away. Probably, get one out within the next week or so.

The only one of those suggestions that we use is Stumbleupon. I think it's time to expand into Delicious. @Sean I've only used Reddit for two days now and it really does seem that people like unusual links. That's very strange that …

I've never heard truer words. I only write about my favourites. Lol that reminds me, I keep telling my friends that I never use my iTunes anymore cause I basically just play music off of my website now lol. I guess that's the downfall t…

Haha funny that you'd mention that but yes, or a stream only soundcloud

Yes, I completely agree with Ben. Very good point. Some way to preview the song before downloading would be optimal for not only you, but for the artist as well. Sometimes not all artists want their full tracks to be downloaded (hence why they might …

Ping Elbows - Beta
@John Lol no problem. It's a more traffic to both elbo.ws and to your own site so it's a win win. Also, Thanks Brandon (I'm assuming it was you) for fixing our RSS feed. I think th reason it stopped working was because we had just b…

Hey Brandon, I've just come across an issue with my Atom feed and it appeared to have stopped working about a week ago, unfortunately. This is a major inconvenience for all of us, but we got the problem fixed and here is the updated Atom feed…

Hmmm ... from all of your comments it seems as though your blog twitter account is like a mini aggregator solely for your own website. I find that kind of humorous. Anyways, besides my little observation; @brandon I completely agree with your comm…

A Sincere Humble Request To Help "Grandpa" With This.....
@muruch I also am a fan of your blog as well. Nicely done. @ Loose lips has a very nice blog as well. I also like Fat Berri's Electronic Music Blog. I'm not sure if he is on the Elbo.ws forum though. Nonetheless, he's got a great…

Average traffic without hypem/elbows?
I have to admit that I check my stats quite frequently as well. I think it is, in a way, an obsession. Being another one of the younger websites (blogging for 6 months now), I like to see a spike a spike in traffic if a post gets picked up. It's…

Very nicely done Muruch. Very good idea. Approve. It's creative and it's like a blast to the past. Like you said, it brings back a strong sense of nostalgia. I like it very much. Hmmm ... the first album that comes to mind is London Callin…

This is intruiging. I just signed up my website for the free plan, so I think I'm going to at least try it out. I guess after 24 hours (max.) i'll hopefully notice a difference.
