Welcome to the Marini Family: Blog!

Thanks for joining us! I’m very pleased with the performance and features of WordPress! I had originally hosted a WordPress blog on our servers and while that gave me more creative freedom on the design and ultimately more control over the blog, having it hosted professionally and having it more available is much better. There are some things I want to explain about how I have the blog designed. Understand that I reserve and will exercise the right to change things here.

Let’s begin at the top! This picture was taken in Utah, between Salt Lake City and the Nevada border. It’s a sculpture called Metaphor: The Tree of Utah. Below that are four links; Home, to get to the main Blog page; About, this page; Family, info and pictures; and Links, some favorite sites. The two latter items are also available on the Marini Family: Home page. Beneath that are two columns of content and linkage. Obviously, the left column is where all the blog posts sit. The right column goes like this (again, I will most likely adjust these):

  • Subscribe Use Feedburner technology to get email notices when I update the blog!
  • Photos Each month I will hopefully feature some pictorials from our trips or projects
  • Popular Posts These are the currently most read posts
  • Categories The high-level subjects of any posts on our blog
  • Tag Cloud All the rage in the blogosphere. More specific than just a Category. Sized according to how many posts are related
  • Your Take What are you saying about the posts?
  • Past Posts An archive of posts sorted by month posted
  • Family Pages Linkage to my sites and those of other kin
  • Great Links Other favorite sites
  • Feeds I will feature your blog! Let me know you have one and I will feature it. Currently featuring Chas Marini’s, Marie West’s and The Huntley’s blogs
  • Blog Stats Blog hit counter - how many visits
  • Where Are You From? Cool little gadget marking where you are visiting us from
  • Tools You may or may not see this depending on whether you are signed into your WP.com account
  • Other This has some copyright notices and other interesting links

I really hope you enjoy this blog and make it part of your regular web-surfing! If you do, find the Tools section on the right and click Entries RSS. Then use an RSS reader to subscribe. Please leave comments for any post that strikes your interests. Let me know if anything is needing my attention as well.

Thanks!
