Welcome to Instigator Blog!

by Ben Yoskovitz

Hopefully many of you are coming from the IGotNewsForYou blog where I’ve been posting since January 2006. I decided to take the plunge and move the blog to WordPress.

As well, the blog didn’t fit with what I want to do at IGotNewsForYou and I wanted to branch out into further discussions, new projects, etc.

So Instigator Blog is born!

The feed is: http://feeds.feedburner.com/InstigatorBlog

The IGotNewsForYou blog will stay where it is, but its focus will be on promoting humor, fun sites, and crazy ideas. So for a laugh, check it out!

The humor will stay here too…I can’t avoid it, but I do see Instigator Blog evolving into my personal brand as an entrepreneur.

I hope you enjoy it here! And I hope the great community built up around the IGotNewsForYou blog sticks around and grows from this point forward.

Hey Paul,

I knew I’d like WordPress from the get-go having used it on Where Is Basil and other projects. It’s not “perfect” but it’s a significant boost over Blogger.

Thanks for sticking around and making the jump with me!

Welcome to WordPress, I’m sure you’ll love it here :D

Hey TechZ — WordPress is a solid blogging platform. Still, I’d love a “preview” option like Blogger has. And it occasionally strips out HTML that I don’t want stripped out, although maybe that’s the theme, I’m not sure.

Lorelle would probably know…

Working from home, either as a job or your own business, is becoming the growing trend.
There are literally millions of people looking for a valid work at home business today.

Hi there.

Some really helpful information here. I’m sorry for beeing a little off-topic, but I want to ask you about the design of this site. Did you make this template yourself or did you get it from any templates website? Looks pretty cool for me. I use Joomla, but wants something better.

#8 Uggboot

I like your blog and have bookmarked it accordingly.

@Peter - This is based off a template called Torn from Michael Pollock at http://www.solostream.com although it’s heavily modified. I definitely recommend it as a WordPress theme.

Please use your real name or a handle that's not driven by trying to gain SEO / Google Juice from my blog. If you put in a "name" designed for SEO purposes, I will edit it. I support the DoFollow movement, but this is also a community, and comments are meant to inspire discussion, not gain link love. Thank you!
