Yes, I do think you’re overly uptight about this. If something isn’t working you simply change it and do it differently. Trial and error is the best way to get rolling.

I’d like to use tags. I’d also like to use “social” bookmarks and pinging, but I worry that if I don’t have everything set up perfectly, I’ll screw up my chances and not be accepted at the sites in question anymore. Do you think I’m overly uptight about this?

When you post on your blog these services will be notified with a “ping”, and anyone subscribed to the topic you blogged about will be notified by RSS that your blog has something of interest to them. It also helps if you have submitted your blog to these sites and other RSS aggregators beforehand. There’s a great list of places to submit either your blog or your feed URL at Master New Media. Those who podcast will also want to do this, as well as submit to the more specific podcast sites.

For some reason after last night I can not pull your web page. I was wondering if there were any hits on the open thread and if you did get my post. The one regarding the race for Cherokee County.
