I try to keep the sidebar and footer here free of blog clutter. It’s so easy to get sucked into the clutter of sidebar “junk”… you know the things I mean. Banners, buttons, blinkies, and linkage to everything on the planet. Sometimes you just want to give the sidebar a good dose of Fenphedra to slim it down a bit. I recently did a quick clean up here on the sidebar and I think we’re still doing okay. Ads are minimal, I kept the Twitter bar up since I’m currently in total love with Twitter, and other than that it’s pretty free and clear of stuff. When was the last time you de-junked your sidebar
