Blogging on the Road and Collection: Graffiti

20121220_145514_310HS_IMG_3476

Yes, this meta-blog is about blogging.  Specifically though, it’s about the challenges of blogging while traveling, and some of the things we learned along the way.  While we found a lot of other great information and tips on many aspects of world travel on other blogs, we did not find anything about blogging while traveling, so this post has been on our to-do list for a while, in the hopes that it will be of some use to other travelers.
The photos are of the street art we saw around the world.

Tweedledee and Tweedledum

You might have noticed, if you come to our blog directly to read the updates rather than just getting the emails or reading it in your feed reader, that we set up a Twitter account: @2bumpsontheroad. Feel free to follow us on Twitter if you want, but don't feel obligated. We're not trying to get into the social media racket. We're primarily setting it up as an easy way to encapsulate each day in 140 characters or less, which will give everyone a bit of an idea of our day to day, especially when I can't get a good internet signal or time to update any further. David will be tweeting from this account as well with observations about things we've seen.  I personally don't understand exactly how all the hashtags and such on twitter work, so I'm not really interested in that culture. But I like the idea of a brief daily update. They'll be basic. but will hopefully give some insight into our day to day experiences.

Also, I've updated my journal in Indonesia, but haven't done any of the month we spent in Australia (sorry! the internet sucked there and I also got lazy!). I'll go back and punch it in at some point, hopefully.

Anyway, that's all I want to say. We hope that you like the new features and changes we've made. Let us know what you think!

Blog makeover: help us!

Wharf
We’re frustrated with the limitations of our current blog design, and are mulling a complete redesign.  Is there anything that you’d like to see that we’re not doing now?  Anything about the current design that is annoying (we have a long list there, ourselves), or that we are doing that you would like to keep?  Shoot us an email, or comment here, on Google+, or on Facebook. We know what bugs us, but we don’t know what is annoying, or lovely, from a reader's perspective. Help us, help you. Thanks and stay tuned!
