Fairly unanimous I guess. I’m not happy with the outcome as I really wanted to add this for January and may still do it. It was worth doing the Poll to gauge some opinions.
Some quick news, we have been having hosting issues which have now been fixed and also the new theme is getting closer. Again I wanted so many features I have had to drop some just to get the theme Live!
I would like to thank Hostgator for being a great host, although I have given them a bit of grief this month. I will be leaving them next month but I still have a Reseller Plan with them which I have had since 2005 and never had any issues with (small downtime). I really like that fact these guys are available at anytime day or night which is good to know in a Host.
You need to have confidence in your host as these guys hold your business up online. When you site goes down you lose visitors and or money
Just in case you want to know, I have a Dedicated Server on NetBusinessBlog.
Spec:
Processor Pentium 4 2.4Ghz
DDR Memory 1024mb
Hard Drive 80gb SATA
Bandwidth 1500GB
Monthly Price $174.00
HostGator have 20% off until January 1st - you can get this plan for just $139.20 using Coupon Code “SNOWMAN” in the checkout.
Note: The only reason I’m leaving them is because I have bagged a fully managed plan with some of the guys I use in the UK. Otherwise I was happy enough with Hostgators Dedicated Plans.
In my next update, I will be letting you all know how I’m getting on building my Mini Niche Forum

I think when I originally voted in that poll I said no, but the more articles I read the more I would like to further some of the discussions that get started in the comments. I think forums would be a good idea. A forum topic that you could occasionally append updates too would be very beneficial to see how your articles like the Forum series pan out over a longer time span rather than just letting it get forgotten after a few months.

Hello Justin,
I completely agree with you, I think some good articles on my blogs are forgotten about and some new visitors miss out on the quality Articles and advice.
I will plan to add this next year for sure…
Thank you for your input.
Hey Adie
I wrote an article about adding a forum to a blog, which you may like to take a read of.
I like the new blog design, by the way!
PS - You may want to change your anti-spam question to 2008 :)
