Blogroll Stuff

Tonight I spent a few minutes working with my blogroll.  I can do all the same things with Wordpress that I do here, but in this case I'll admit that Blogger makes it easier as long as you're working with the defaults.

I was able to add a dozen or so blogs in just a few minutes.  I remain a convinced Wordpress user, but I'm more impressed with blogger than I expected.

Book: Learning and Living Scripture

This post is intended specifically to test the Amazon linking and previews.  One of the features of blogger I wanted to test was the integration of Amazon.com associates links with the text.

So without further nonsense, I'm going to provide a link to my newest book, written with co-author Geoffrey Lentz, Learning and Living Scripture: An Introduction to the Participatory Study Method, and of course link it to Amazon.com.

After turning on the Associates code, I simply had to list the book in the gadget to my right, select the text, and click "Link."  This is very efficient, and not at all like my experience with Blogger in the good old days.

Say What?

I created this blog simply because I get so many questions from clients and authors (I'm owner of Energion Publications) that I wanted to have something to play with and test.

I will do some occasional cross-posting here, but mostly it will be technical stuff used to test or demonstrate the capabilities of blogger for people I help.

You can always find me at my home blog Threads from Henry's Web.
