Best Buy: A Blogging Resource

I hope you have noticed the face-lift I have given the blog. I spent many hours wrestling with html within the Google Blogger environment where stuff goes on behind the scenes, thwarting your efforts to use CSS. Fortunately there are many great meta-blogs on using Blogger which provided the solutions every problem I had.

I have 2 pcs, both running Windows XP (!). I use Chrome, myself, and I have IE8 on both machines. Beyond that I have no way to see how my efforts look on any other type of machine (e.g. iPhone, iPad, etc) or browser (Safari). I happened to be in Best Buy picking up some iTunes gift cards (10% off) and of course, couldn’t resist checking out the various computers on display.

It occurred to me I could also review my blog’s appearance. So I tried everything from smartphones running android and IOS5 through tablets to an iMac with a 27in display. I was pretty happy with the rendering of my static page, and I may add some more of them in the near future. I highly recommend the exercise – go to your nearest big computer store and see how your blog looks to other users!

PS: I apologize to anyone visiting the Boulder Best Buy wondering why every computer in the shop is tuned in to some odd blog they never heard of!
