I did find one template that is the same as this one except has 3 columns, I might go to that because I’d like to provide at some point an index linking to old posts with titles like “recipes” “Quick tips” “Works for Me Wednesdays” “Carnival Roundups” “Projects” etc.

I will be adding in a weekly poll (or at least occasional poll) and I’d like to try the reading list feature that Molly recommends. (or else figure out how to do the Amazon.com one that I see on other folks sites) I think that will add to the content without gunking things up or slowing things down.

Again, thanks for all your input.

In response to your question on my blog… here’s my husband’s blog with All Consuming in action: Professional Notes. Just scroll down to “Books and More” in the right-hand column. I think if you click through on the tiny little link to All Consuming it might give you a better idea of what it does than the link I posted earlier.

Of course, now that I think about it, suggesting a site called “All Consuming” for a frugality blog seems kind of silly. But since almost all of the books I read come from PaperBackSwap these days, I just don’t think of getting books as “consuming” anymore.

As for the polls and such, go for it, might be fun.
