While working on my baking skills, I'm still continue learning more on how to improve my blog . It was a month ago when I know nothing about blogging but now thanks to Allah, alhamdulillah, at least i know the basic ideas on the 'know-how' that includes:
- Using or changing the layout/design template
- Adding widgets, java scripts, gadgets
- Linking to other sites like flickr slideshows or picasa album
- Inserting labels/categories
- Inserting FB profile badge
- Inserting video from youtube via mixpod.com
- Little bit on html editting (havent know about CSS yet)
- Inserting picture for the header (as the template that I am using doesnt come with the header, so i just find one from the internet! easy..)
- Tips/tricks from the blog experts.
And last but not least, there is one more simple thing that I want to do on the layout and that is, to add menu tabs either vertically or horizontally. Finding the labels/categories on the right side are not as catchy as compared to menu tabs, I will try to change it hopefully within this week or next.
My most challenging experience about blogging is not much about the design but its content, what information that I would like to put in and share to others. Well, I have nothing in definite so far but surely, something to do with cooking and crochetting will be my focus subjects at this point of time. Having a nice layout and pictures without a good content will make your blog becomes so 'stale' to the eyes of others. There are so many webistes that you can refer to about creating/managing blog, among my favourite websites are:

So lets start blogging for those who havent. Frankly, I feel more comfortable in here in expressing myself comparing to other social networking sites. Believe me!! :))
