Format philosophizing

2010-06-21Uncategorized Standard

I’m guessing you’ve noticed that we’ve started blogging in English.  Will this be a permanent feature?  Perhaps!  It seems only fair since we used to blog in Icelandic when we lived far away from Iceland and were blogging for our friends and family there.  Now we’re mooooving so it feels like we’re blogging for our friends that we’re leaving behind in California (sniffles).  Hence, this blog might permanently switch, but I’m not making any promises.

Secondly, with our move to a new blog-system, we’ve stopped doing one “text-blog” (with the occasional small photo) and one “photo-blog” (with chunks of decent sized photos).  Now we’re doing it all in one spot, but we’ve started using a “read more” link so that the “photo-blog-esque” entries don’t eat up the entire front page of the blog.  For now I’ll be using a “read more” link after the first photo of each blog entry that has multiple photos.  (One aside: Are the photos big enough?  Too big?  Just right?…)

As always, the blog is a work in progress, so please speak up if you have ideas on how to make things better! 🙂

Já, tók eftir því 🙂
Fyrir okkur sem skiljum ensku er þetta svosem alveg í fínu lagi. Mér finnst myndirnar helst til stórar, því þegar þær eru portrait þá get ég ekki lesið það sem stendur fyrir neðan hana OG séð alla myndina um leið. En það er auðvitað háð skjástærð hvers og eins vænti ég. Ég er með frekar normal fartölvu.

Njótið NY!

We love the English! Also, limiting the length of the post that shows up on the front page makes it easier to see if there has been more than one post since the last time I checked. I also like the handy links to older posts.

Picture are just right. I’ve enjoyed reading your updates. I like NYC and want to go back soon. Sounds like you’re having fun! The office has been less fun without you :(.

@Una: Ertu ekki örugglega að nota Chrome browserinn? Ef þú vilt stækka skjáplássið (losna við browser-ramman) þá skaltu prófa að ýta á F11 🙂

@Sarah: You know we have an RSS-feed right? 🙂

@Lauren: We are having fun! 🙂 And I think you should install a boom-box into the office and crank out some happy music! 🙂

+1 vote for english! =D NY Blogs were great!

The RSS-feed doesn’t allow commenting — perhaps you could add a small link at the end for writing comments?

Also, your Comments (RSS) link (at the bottom) has lots of funny words and characters in the posts. 😛
(it’d be great to have a combined feed, so we could see both the entries and any comments in Reader!)

Finally, your quotes are “uʍop-ǝpısdn„ =P
