• Upcoming Posts Are Done & Scheduled

Four upcoming posts have been written already and are scheduled via Blogger in the following order.
Local Tackle, Spooling Tip, Split Shotting, Bass Weight Calculations

If you haven't noticed, I'm getting close to 200 posts. By the end of this week, I will have 202 posts. I'm not planning anything to celebrate having 200 posts. I don't think it's that big of a deal. It just means I need to start coming up with more things to write about. Easier said than done it seems.

Enjoy!

• Subscriber jump?

Somehow the number of subscribers on my blog jumped from 26 to 40 over a few hours. I'm not sure how that happened. I know I added the addtoany subscription button to my page. Now Feedburner is reporting 25 subscribers again. There was only one "uncommon use" listed and that came from Blogcatalog, which isn't the least bit uncommon. I did notice the Technorati search bot was visiting a little more frequent. All I can figure is that addtoany somehow triggered a feeding frenzy, pardon the pun.

• Some Fixes & Changes

I fixed a couple of things and am about to add something new. First off, I noticed my comments links were messed up. When one comment was posted, it still said "1 Comments" plural, not "1 Comment" as it should. Fixed that. My Recent Comments feed script is hosted off-site by a third party and it stopped working today. I said forget all that and found code to actually do it myself. So now my Recent Comments actually look better and I'm listing the seven most recent instead of five.

Blogger has just introduced a new add-on for Blog Rolls or Blog Link Lists. I'm going to give it a try and see how it looks.

• Revamped Pflueger Summit Review

I went back through and revised my review of the Pflueger Summit WLP baitcaster. I've taken the sequential edits from the bottom of the review and integrated them so that there is a little more continuity to the review. I've also reworded the review to reflect the high speed reel playing field at the time I purchased the reel and put it into context of the current offerings from Pflueger, including the new Patriarch and the Cetina LP. I still have to add a few links, but for some reason, the Pflueger web site is timing out on me.
