Dotventures Goes Daily

For some time now, I've been considering changing this blog's name and sub-domain from Dotventures to some other identification.

For several reasons, the first being that there's a registered domain for it as I've discovered from trying to search for this blog through the popular search engines. For the record, this blog has no connection whatsoever to said domain, and they to this blog. So there.

Besides, the semantics are different as they refer to DotVentures meaning something like "online business opportunity" while my take on the term Dotventures is, as my byline says, "adventures and misadventures in a dot-com world."

Second, as is, the term is less descriptive than I would prefer it to be. It needs something more. Something complementing, something familiar and welcoming - a sense of being "always there".

After much contemplation, what used to be known (most of the times) as Dotventures Blog now becomes "Daily Dotventures". I think that rolls off the tongue quite well, don't you?

Not much of a change you say. Wait, there's more!

With the name change comes a reformatting of this blogs emphasis on general news items and broaden it up a bit to include site reviews and blogger profiles. These would be sites referenced from StumbleUpon or Technorati for example or from one of the blog directories like BlogCatalog, GetBlogs Blog Directory or MyBlogLog. Perhaps, even a link sent my way from folks in the neighborhood (hint, hint).

That is just for starters, as I trip along the cyberfrontier we will be serving up some more stuff.

Daily Dotventures stays on the same web address - http://dotventures.blogspot.com. It seems that sploggers have a penchant for snatching up deleted blogger/blog*spot addresses to perpetrate their evil spam blogging schemes. So if you're thinking of deleting your blog - don't. Just pass it on to someone else.

This would now be a great time to subscribe to the Daily Dotventures feed.

Enjoy you're daily dotventures everyone!
