Happy Birthday to EckSpot! A year ago this weekend I launched the blog, replacing our older family website. To date the site has received almost 1900 hits! We are very pleased with the site and so appreciate all of you for visiting and following the adventures of our family on the web. Keep visiting and by all means send me suggestions.
What will year two of EckSpot bring? I'm glad you asked:
1. The launch of the "occasional sports and life commentary" portion promised in EckSpot's header. I plan to post a weekly column on something of interest to me (and hopefully you). I asked a few creative friends and EckSpot readers (Matt Bachmann, Dave Borchardt and Matt Frankovis) to suggest titles for the column. Rather than pick one I am going to post a poll on the site and will go with the winning selection. The four finalists are:
- The Weekly Eckstra
- Eck’s Box
- Seven Days, One Thought
- I Love Cities That Begin with "S"
Stay tuned for the poll!
2. The addition of Google AdSense (which was actually live as of two weeks ago). This service places ads from Google in the lower right side of the page. When a visitor clicks on one of the ads, I earn something like one-millionth of a penny. Perhaps it will add up to enough to buy a Diet Pepsi to enjoy while writing my new weekly column.
3. Even more family updates, pictures, and videos. Now that Cassie has her own real pink digital camera, and Tommy has a nice toy version, the sky is the limit!
Thanks for reading and please watch for more EckSpot fun during year two!
