I decided to FreshenThings Up
I took a page from Alexa's book, and messed around with my template, and like the sleek new look. I also added a few more links. I added Luminous Miseries, which holds the record for being on my blogroll the least amount of time, because when I checked the link to see if it worked, I saw Owen had closed it down. He has replaced it with these new
blogs, and I highly recommed checking them out.
I was going to delete a few links, as they are inactive, but decided to just put them at the bottom of the list with a # next to them. Who knows, they might come back.
Do you ever remove people from your blog roll? If so, why? I have been dropped, and it makes me feel as if I have done something wrong. Maybe if there are reasons that are purely practical, I won't take it so personally.
Anyway, hope you enjoy the new look. I am open to feedback about it. LMK. And enjoy meeting Owen if you haven't already.
Blessings!

I don't mind being dropped from a blogroll. It just means my stuff isn't working for someone.
I've revised my blogroll, but it's not because I don't enjoy the blogs that aren't there anymore. I just happened to decide that I wanted a certain theme to my links. So I focused my blogroll on that theme, and still visit all my old friends via bookmarks and bloglines.
Hope that helps.
I enjoy dropping by here! :)
I did comment on your previous post that I like the new you here!!
I do from time to time clean house on my blogroll, it's already pretty short and the reasoning that I only "really" read a few of them, and for various reasons. Mostly my own effective use of time. Not that I am a poor time manager........nothing like that:)
Nice and clean. Good. No blogroll, no problem. I haven't kept one for quite a while now. I keep track of my reads via an rss feeder.

But you are sweat and I hang my head in shame because I just noticed your blogroll and who is there at the top, um, me. Oh how chagrin should have been my middle name. However, it is true that I don't keep a general blogroll. Obviously, you are in my rss feed list though ;-) for here I am.
I actually hesitated to bring up the "blogroll" thing , but for some reason it was "sniggling" at me. So, I am glad I asked, because Ginger, Amy, Ayekah, Owen, your explainations really do make sense. I always knew I was being silly, but now that I got it off my chest, I feel much better. Thanks, all.
renee - I like the new template. Easy to read and quick to load.
As for blogrolls - I've been dropped from quite a few in these last fews months of inactivity. I don't sweat it too much - I wouldn't be reading me these days ;-) - but it would hurt my feelings a tad bit if it was someone I feel I've gotten to know like you or Alicia. KWIM? I use bloglines myself, so it's pretty much just the blogs I actually read.
I like the new look Renee!
Linking on blog rolls does affect the TTLB system and blog ratings so in that sense it can make a difference.
You're on my roll!
Looks good.
I need to mess with my Blogroll, it's not been dealt with in an embarassing amount of time.
I really like the new look. Very refreshing.
Love the new look... maybe I need to freshen mine too. Then again, what if I delete myself again? *LOL*
