Infact I have seen your PhotoSyndey site before when clicking around randomly in the top bar bit from other Blogger sites. You might be best off having a look at your referrer logs to see how people are getting to your site. I don't know if you get access to this kind of info on Blogger - maybe that is one of the plus sides of getting your own/domain - you get complete control. Personally, I like hacking around with web programming languages and stuff more than writing a blog so its an easy choice for me :) Hey BHR, I don’t know if it is a good idea or not – I don’t know much about the community side of blogging, but I think the Blogger blogs would generate a lot more “accidental” traffic than if you do start up your own domain.

"upgradability"... "manageable"... "share"... What are you thinking?! I haven't looked in to the plugin development for WordPress, but I guarantee that someone has already made this module anyway - most likely with "useful" features. If I dig that up I'll whack a link here. Pfft… “upgradability”… “manageable”… “share”… What are you thinking?!

Might be a little tidier and manageable in future if you added your extra bits to the wp-content/plugins folder. Then you can share it all with the rest of wordPressers out there nicely.
