Theme change at Spencerbarron.com

Being snowed in, I finally found some time to change out my theme to more of what I wanted. I’m going with this Cutline theme by Chris Pearson.

It seems to be fairly well supported, and when I look at the templates it almost makes sense. Well, at least in that I recognize a few English words. This is good because I’m hoping I can make a few more tweaks to make it exactly what I want.

Here are the resources that I’ve found most helpful in putting my page together.

1. Wordpress – Everything you need
2. The Cutline theme page – Great simple theme that really isn’t that simple
3. MyBlogLog – Great social network of fellow bloggers
4. FeedBurner – To track your subscriptions to your blog
5. Google Analytics – Track where your viewers came from, how they got there and what they looked at.
6. Technorati – Blog bookmarking page

There are many other great tools I’ve come across so far that seem to appeal to the entry level bloggers, but these seem to be the ones I keep going back to. I still have a lot more changes to make before I’ll be satisfied with it, but it’s a start.
