I promise I’m not going to mention my first post with this new custom theme in every post, but I’d like to explain some of the new features I’ve added to the site in the hopes that it will make it a better, more visited site. In my earlier post, I discussed how I designed this theme with Search Engine Optimization (SEO) playing a big part in the coding portion of it. What I didn’t mention is that I designed the site to be completely optimized for communication and connection with the content as well as one another. I want people commenting and posting links to my articles. I think that I have a lot of valid information to share, and hope that soon people will start finding it and sharing it with others.

One of the tools that i have added to the site in the right sidebar is an application called Skribit. You may have or may not have noticed it. See over there –> where is says “Suggestions?” If you click the suggestions box, a window pops up with a form in it. This form allows you to submit a suggestion for a topic that you would like to see me blog about.

Skribit was co-founded Paul Stamatiou. Paul is a self described Tech Maven who recently graduated from Georgia Tech. He runs Skribit full-time out of his apartment. I have been following his blog for abut 2 or 3 months now, and enjoy every moment of it. It was only natural for me to sign up and try his service, Skribit. If you haven’t checked out his blog yet, I’d definitely suggest reading it. Plenty of good inspiration and great posts over there.

I hope to use Skribit as a way to communicate with my readers directly about the topics I write about. I plan on writing posts on all types of topics, ranging from Economics to Web Design Best Practices. With Skribit now all of my readers will be able to suggest topics for me to write about. Stats about individual posts on my site are great, but I still think that using a method of user suggestion will allow me to write content that more people want to read. I will also place topic suggestions of my own on Skribit and put more focus on topics that are voted on the most. With that said I am going to continue focusing on writing more great tutorials and resource lists.
