The home page and original site for the Famous Grazing Blogs

There are more than a dozen Famous Grazing Blogs residing on the cybersphere. Some are dormant and some very active. They all link back here to the Granddaddy of our blogs, founding in May of 2004.

March-Lamb Thing

For the last few years, March has certainly held on to its lion identity.

This year things have definitely stayed to script. It's gorgeous out there. So much so, Spring Fever is upon me. It is Friday and I DO NOT want to get dressed and go to work. Even though there's a go-away party at the end of the work day, I only see that as a reason to stay longer than I really want to. TGIF is alright, but not at 0627.

The Tuesday- Not Quite As Dreary

Things were fixed today. The sun came out and I feel its effect on my face. It was good to be out of the bunker and in the fresh air at least for a little while. An extra hour's work today saved me grief tomorrow. Grief of a very minor sort in the grand scheme of things. But then aren't we all minor but so very important at the same time in The Grand Scheme of Things? =30=

Even After a Long Hard Day

It was a long dreary Monday. I am about to tranmorgraph into a pod in front of the TiVo. But I still found it easy to use the Performancing Firefox extension to make an entry for today. Amazing that! =30=

The Rarity of a Monday Morning Entry

This is an example of the ease of use for Performancing. I would never think I had time to make an entry on a Monday morning when I barely have time to peruse the news, drink my tea and get on the road to the city. But here I am, making an entry about making an entry. This is either Zen or spitting into the wind. Perhaps both. =30=

AllPeers ...still waiting.

I just came back from allpeers.com again and still don't see the product. In the FAQ, many things are promised. I will be glad to try it when it comes out. WHEN it comes out. =30=

Zen Saying in MetaTab

Firefox Performancing Handbook.

Performancing, when you visit their website has many features related to data. This is probably interesting to someone to whom this information matters. What is important to me is its ability to pop a pager up in Firefox that gives you the option of making a quick entry into the blog of your choice. For more information go their Firefox Performancing Handbook.

Moleskine Addiction...

Anyone who has ever felt the need to blog and wants to stay blogging, should avoid tapping into the Moleskine Consciousness. The Furrygoat blog entry on this subject is a good example. Even though I've been slack on all my blogs for the past few months, there's a rare day I don't make some sort of entry either in my large square Moleskine, or my 2006 Moleskine calendar. I haven't taken my Palm out for ages. =30=

File Hippo - Free Software Downloads

File Hippo - Free Software Downloads
This is being written with another Firefox extension called JustBlogIt! I've wanted to post a ling regarding File Hippo for a while. It isn't SnapfilesPro, but it is a good source of Free and Shareware. =30=

Now I don't even need to leave Firefox to maintain the blog

This is way too easy. Life has been hectic and February was too short a month to accomplish any blogging. It's not like there were a lot of entries in March. I believe and hope more time can be given to this. =30=

Firefox Extensions

If you want to see what is happening at Firefox with the advent of version 2 coming soon, it would be a good idea to go to Chris Pirillo's website and download the Firefox tips pdf. It deals mostly with extensions. I am using one of those extensions called perfamancing to make this entry into Blogger.

The Ides of March

It was the Ides of March at work today. Ceasar fell and the minions danced in their chairs, in the halls and in the freight elevator. =30=

The Pats! Say it Isn't SO

I had to just turn off the game. If someone said this was a thrown game, I wouldn't have a hard time believing.

What a disappointment!

So Much Fuss Over What?

All over the tech blurbs AllPeers is being talked about.  I am sorry, I just don’t see about what the fuss is being made.  Talk about hype.  The extension is not even functional yet and its praise is being sung to the high heavens.  Let’s wait to see if it does all that is promised.

Don’t go on about the paradigm of the Swiss Watch Makers.  I will watch this and if it meets all of the promised hype, it will be reported here or at Home Grazing.

Beware of Writely

If you blog, beware of two things, Writely and Moleskine.

The two of them will drain you of your desire to write in your blog.

When I tried both it was with the intention of using them as tools to enhance the blog entries. What actually happened was the entries became Writely and Moleskine entries which never made it over to the blog platform.Beware the Moleskine and Writely

It then occurred to me none of the fourteen or so blogs on the Famous Grazing Blog field had received attention in quite a while, some not since the beginning of the new year. It is a new year, isn't it? Hold on, let me check my Moleskine Date Book which arrived on Friday. Yep.

See! These books are a definite addiction. When my wife saw me open the box from the Vickery, I believe she thought it was a place like a Victoria's Secret. She was somewhat disappointed to find the Vickery is a good location for Moleskine products in the Boulder CO area. In what a small world we live.

Just a few hours more!

Only a few hours left in 2005.

I wonder how long it will take me to write 2006. I know it will be a while because I wrote ‘1995’ before correcting it.

Most of my blogging of late has been over at Grazing Planet and Home Grazing, using Easy Blogs and Thingamablog respectively.

It all comes down to ease of use. In the case of Easy Blogs it is ease of use as it relates to graphics. Once you learn the use of the big X on the right side of the window, your illustrations are limitless.

Thingamablog has the attached newsreader that with a click becomes a blog entry. So, two blogs with two different engines of creation. And then there’s Blogger.

Happy New Year!
