Blog organization is one of those things that you don't realize you were in need of until you stumble across someone's blog and see how cleverly they have designed their blog to make it easier to navigate. Don't be afraid to ask how they did that! Bloggers are usually friendly and like to help out. They will probably be thrilled; someone noticed their blog!
Blog Tip Challenge of the Month
This month, let's not wait to stumble on some great blog organizational tools. If you have a widget, script, or other handy blog goody that can help us get our blogs all spiffed up, then share it with us! Even if it's just an idea on how to make your blog entries clean and tidy, we want to know.
Write your hints and tips on your blog and then come back here to leave a short comment telling us what your hint or tip is and then a link to your post so that we can go find out more.

Not a widget or a tool, just a general blogging tip.
Back. Up. Your. Blog.
I just learned this the hard way. My blog was only a month and a half old, making a backup was on my 'to-do' list. Last Friday, I accidentally clicked the wrong button in my file manager and the WHOLE THING is gone, just like that. My hosting company is looking into whether or not they have a server backup, but odds are I'm going to have to reconstruct everything from scratch, rescuing posts from google cache as much as possible.
So, I don't have a link to my blog post about this... for obvious reasons lol... Once it's back up, I certainly will though!!!!
