So far this MyBlogLog has done a terrific job in generating new readers to my site. I like the fact this audience likes to read blogs, so that is something we all have in common. I have actually run into quite a few blogs outside my normal realm of interests of mma, boxing, computers, internet, stocks and finances. I have created a little sidebar which showcases the MyBlogLog visitors which have links to their respective blogs by clicking on their avatars or pictures. I now also have a community that you can join on the site that you can join by clicking on the sidebar link. Another great thing is you don’t have to be a blogger to join. You can join if you just like reading. No matter what you are interested in, their are others who share the same interests at this site.
Other bloggers have added me on as contacts and even joined my personal community which still is surprising to me since I didn’t do anything to set it up. I am guessing they will get updates of my recent posts by signing up. It just takes to clicks and is free. My profile has been viewed over 400 times and I have the snoopy avatar to thank for that. Even though new traffic doesn’t guarantee future visits, the overall experience is good for me. It didn’t cost me any money just time. And by visiting all these other blogs that I have some interest in, I have learned a lot and come up with some new ideas to write about.
On a different note, the stock market was up again. All the indexes I watched closed substantially up and is building some good momentum. They are still all far away from their recent highs but that is healthy for the market to build a higher base of more confident investors. I really think that people with money to invest that want more than what the bank is paying and no longer happy with the climate of the housing market pretty much have to get into stocks to have a decent return over the long run. Also, the more ups and downs you get through in the stock market, the more easy I find it to wait for the next bull run. I really don’t think we have hit the market’s potential and am still predicting a 15,000 dow by the end of the year. We can revisit that in December and see how right or wrong I was about this.
| DOW | 13,236.13 | +145.27 |
| NASDAQ | 2,552.80 | +31.50 |
| S&P 500 | 1,464.07 | +16.95 |

Hello! Australia just took a big dive in the stockmarket, with huge losses. Apparently had something to do with the American stock market. But thankfully their returning to normal.
Thanks Zmoney for your support. I checked out your site. Looks good. I appreciate the advice and will join the MBL community. Cheers!
Hi Paul, Sorry to hear about the Australian market taking a dive. Hopefully, it will bounce back up. In the last 2 weeks, the US stockmarkets have gone down 10% so we had an official stock market correction. In the last 3 days, the market has gone up overall about 3-4%. Cheers!
Hi there. The stock market really is the highlights of the news lately. Good luck. By the way, nice blog. I’m still learning to write more in my blog and your site really helps me a lot.
Hi Kumo,
Thank you for stopping by. I do appreciate your comment. For me, I have always followed the market since my college days when the market shut down from a 500+ point drop. I think it was known as Black Monday. Good luck with your Toast and Egg and Me site. Congratulations on posting for over a year. =)
