I need to start following more photography related blogs. All 5 links you posted in that category today, looks interesting – I’m gonna take a look at them and maybe subscribe to their RSS feed as well. Bloggers, you better thank Kristi for getting another subscriber 😀
Awesome list, as always! I’d been looking for a resource to learn more about BuddyPress, so you’ve given me a great one. Have a wonderful weekend!
I’ve only recently set up my FB fan page so the find on Google Analytics is excellent – thanks.
Also loved the B&W animal photos – awesome. Oh…to be able to photograph like that!

Thank you for the link to the 60 free high-quality WordPress themes. This is a lifesaver since I need to find a decent free theme to use for a project at work. Have a nice weekend!
This is where I keep my “stash” of WordPress theme related items when I’m in need of a new theme – WordPress Themes on StumbleUpon. 🙂
I like the post of Thesis side bar, nice and simple idea! I am more into design these days and preparing another surprise soon 😉
Nice video by the way!
