If you read this post, then you’d probably know that finding ways to improve this blog is something that I’ve been thinking about a lot. And, not just because Darren’s urging Problogger readers to Build a Better Blog in 31 Days. Truth is, I’ve been brainstorming ideas over the last few months - but, I end up going around in circles.
Do I simply write a personal personal blog? Or, do I begin to build this as a mini-magazine of sort? A place where I don’t just share stuff about me - but a place where people can really find lessons, ideas, and inspiration from (and for) everyday life.
So, after much internal deliberation, I realised that the best place to ask for some additional ideas and feedback is through you - the readers and visitors of this blog. So, I hope that you’ll take a moment to share some of your thoughts on this matter. I’ve posted some questions in poll-format here. Feel free to answer just one - or all - of them. And, maybe consider sharing more opinions (or questions!) in the comment form. I’m really looking forward to learning from you on how I can make this blog a better blog.
NOTE: If you don’t see your votes recorded immediately in the polls, don’t worry. They’ve been counted. These things are just a tad bit slow. The results are updated every hour. Thanks!

Robin: Thanks! Will definitely keep you posted. BTW, I’m kicking myself for forgetting to include Canada in my country list. Argh. :-p
Heather: Will do.
And, I’m looking forward to meeting you in person soon.
William: Yes, conscience… Your voice echoes everyday!
notsquare: Thank you so much for your kind words. I, too, have come to consider you as a friend after all these years. So I don’t think of you as a “snooper” at all.

I feel that this (what I consider to be personal) blog, does also inspire and teach at the same time. I like that when I visit I never know quite what to expect. I’ve been a reader for quite some time (Reclusivegirl, Love Tinsley, etc.) and am rarely disappointed upon my arrival. We all like to learn about the blogger, and if it happens to be educational as well, even better
