I love the "bits" theme of your blog. Are you thinking about incorporating that into your new design? Awesome! I love the “bits” theme of your blog.

You can see my Recent Bits on the sidebar now. Thanks, Lauren. I didn’t have it in my existing theme, so I looked for it in other themes and finally got the right code.

Yes, I was planning on adding Recent Articles list, but then got sidetracked and thought of adding it to the new design. Which plugin do you use for your Recent articles? hehe, I was wondering if anyone else notices the resemblance of DOS with the operating system ;-) I'll use lower "s" in the future posts. re: my lit bits. I know that many readers just skip them, but those who read are enough for keep me going. If I get a comment that they've never read that author, but after reading my bit, went to get as book by that author, that's what makes it all worthwhile. Plus, it encourages me to do read books other than design-related ones ;-) And I get quite a traffic from Search engines - people looking for those stories. Ok, I've noted all your comments, will keep them all in mind, and try my best. Thanks again! Lauren, thanks so much for answering to all my questions – very helpful.

It's kind of a design thing, but it's content, too, and I wish I could move faster through the five or so most recent articles (to check new comments, reference the titles for links in my articles and such) One more thing: I’d like to see a Recent Articles list in the sidebar.

Which past articles on Inspiration Bit were the most memorable for you? I like the ones where you compile details you notice. The one that sticks out the most to me is the Focus on the Details and Get Inspired. 2. What type of posts do you favour the most, what topics would you like me to focus on more? Inspiration of course! Be it from art, design, literature... and I love seeing people's processes. How they came up with a look or discovered a concept. And you always seem to find things around the Web that I've never seen. I like it when you share cool stuff with us. And it doesn't just have to be Websites. I will never forget that you introduced me to Contact Juggling (I've shown that video to so many people!) 3. What topics/posts are your least favourite? I would not say "least favorite" but ones that if I don't have time I skip over are the Lit Bits :( BUT!! Only because the short stories are still a bit long for the Web and I have a difficult time tracking from line to line after reading on the screen for a while. Yes, I know I need to stop being lazy and print them out. 4. What changes/additions would you like to see on Inspiration Bit, in terms of its content, structure, focus? I like your idea of having a weekly (or maybe even monthly or quarterly) feature. And I think you could do a roundup post at the end of the month to give a peak into your past articles. They don't have to be from that month either. Maybe you choose a theme, like Web design or maybe they are posts from a particular category (like you did above). You could also intersperse some links on a similar topic from <em>other</em> blogs. Ooo, that's a good idea! Maybe I'll adopt that, too :D Oh, and one last note: DOS helps run Windows... I just see that every time I look at it! Perhaps change it to DOs (with a lowercase s)? I know that it shouldn't have an apostrophe, though, thanks to John! 1.
