I’m still trying to figure out how to use the Google Reader sharing thinger, and if I make comments there, do they show up on the original post? IDK… I’m trying to find a more effective way to use the blogroll without it taking up 29 inches long of blogspace. Meghan at Medieval Bookworm has a nice little widget, why can’t I get one for mine? *whine whine whine*
Other things I’ve done:
I updated all the links on my I Want More Kool-Aid! page. Apparently, the BookMooch link there took you to a member’s only page, and was therefore sorta broke. I also added my Goodreads profile, so if you want to add me on goodreads, now ya can 😉 And my facebook link is on there, too.
I removed the Giveaways page. I’ve really been bad about keeping up with that thing anyway. There was only ONE giveaway listed, and it was for my giveaway of Something Beyond Greatness, which was HOW LONG AGO?
***** ADD break – Since the kids came home and noticed RIGHT AWAY that I was busy and took IMMEDIATELY to fighting like cats and dogs, I put on my MP3 player and cranked it up…. Currently playing: Mere Saath Chalte Chalte (from the Humko Deewana Kar Gaye soundtrack)
The girls in this video are all so beautiful, and I just love this movie! AND… It’s hard to listen to Hindi music without dancing! Okay, back to work 🙂 ******
Okay, I cut the ARC-alanche list and pasted it over the Mt. TBR Inventory, deleting all the previous mess. Then I added the link to my LT catalogue, and renamed the new page It’s an ARC-alanche!! I had went through and updated the list in anticipation of focusing entirely on these books this year, and STILL I had a book that had escaped the pile… lol. I think it’s complete now. As I review books, I’ll add the links and strike off the completed titles. 1 down, 66 to go 
And now I’ve got my challenge page updated, including the books I plan to read for each challenge so I can strike them out and link the reviews as I finish them. I’ve retitled the page Reading is Challenging!
Yay!! Getting soooo much done!
Okay, so one thing I need to do is to go through and check all my images to make sure they have alt titles, as MawBooks pointed out that the ALT title helps the search engines find the images, and by that, my blog 🙂
Then I’m good to go on checking out the mini-challenges, I think 😀

In the Shadow of Mt. TBR 
You have been busy! Keep it up!
You are doing awesome!!!
Hmm, I don’t know if you can add the Google Reader widget on wordpress.com. If you can though, here’s how – in GR, click on “sharing settings” which is on the middle on the left, under the people you follow. At the very bottom of the sharing settings page, there is an option to add a clip, and you can format it as you like and include only shared items or all items. You can also put more in the widget by clicking on settings at the top right of the page, then folders and tags, which should enable you to share an entire folder. I try to put all the book blogs I read in one folder and I share that.
Also, when you share a post, it essentially pops up again in the feed readers of those who follow you – so I don’t think comments will be on the original post.
