House in Progress Diary

{waving hello madly...}

You know...this Internet thing is super fun.

I had no idea the interesting sites that I would find by looking at people who had looked at OUR site. This is one big Internet-fest. Sorry I sound so much like a geek but honestly, this blog thing is a pretty new phenomenon to me. Though I really miss the Table Talk crowd at MWT for Salon.com. :(

And to those of you who are tuning in to just our site (like my family), roam around a little bit. These folks, especially some of the livejournal crowd, are very good writers and FUN!

Our top ten linked sites (according to web stats) are:

1. BoingBoing - This is some very cool stuff served up piping hot daily.

2. American Bungalow Magazine - If you love the site, the zine will have you swooning. Plus, such a helpful house restoration crowd.

3. Old House - If you have an Old House, you need this site. Not to be confused with "This Old House".

4. Purejuice - She's a great writer, she's got soul, and she's got a kickin' site. Also voted Livejournal user we'd most like to have a margarita and conversation with.

Rest of top ten if you click the link...

5. Gapers Block - Something else in Chicago that I love as much as the Chicago Reader but didn't know it existed until 3 days ago.

6. Craigs List - What do you want to know? It's on Craigs List.

7. Saucy Dwellings from LiveJournal - The sauciest! Dwellings! Ever!

8. Morphius 7 Friends - Dang! Who is Morphius 7? And how'd he get so many friends?

9. Cadence 90 - Lisa Williams is insightful, funny and interesting. Get to know her.

10. Vicki and Friends - Again...many, many friends. Dialogue, random-ness, photos, entertaining!

11. Blogwise.com - A directory of blogs...thanks Sven!

We are just blogging away about the house...these folks have real exciting lives! With photos! And points-of-view!

Someday. Someday.

Okay, back to the stuff.
