I have some exciting news that I will share with a full blog post that I am working on but here is a hint in the form of a sign I had made.

I had an idea of something I would like to see on WordPress.com. Traditionally on an about page you talk about yourself, the author of the blog. However, on my blog I thought it would be neat to have a spot on the about page for my blog itself. Your blog is kinda like your co-author, nothing would get published without him (it?). It would be nice to have some way to showcase the great things about your blog. Here are some of the things that I think would be cool to have in an “About this Blog” shortcode.

  • Age in blog years (not sure how I’m going to calculate this yet :) )
  • Number of words used across the entire site
  • Number of media files separated by media type, maybe have it display the total number of pixels for all images
  • The theme being used
  • Any upgrades being used
  • The site stats
  • Number of posts
  • Number of pages
  • Number of comments
  • Number of commenters
  • Number of followers
  • Number of categories
  • Number of tags

Decided it was time for some new shoes so I picked up a pair of Nike SBs and added some custom lacelocks I got from Speakeasy Goods.

Really awesome talk on introverts, which I am in case you don’t know me which is highly likely as I’m an introvert :) . I also bought Susan Cain’s book today so I hope to share more with you about it soon.

Ok, the intro video is a little corny but their videos are top notch, they just need to get some WordPress ones :) .
