Sharing reviews outside the blog?

I have a question for you today : Why do you, or do you not, share your reviews outside your blogs – for instance, on Goodreads, Librarything, Amazon, etc? I’m mostly considering maybe sharing my reviews on Goodreads, something I haven’t taken the time to do much in the past. I can see advantages to do so, but inconvenients too. In the past months, I didn’t have much time to blog at all, so when I posted a review here, I...

Time for a new look!

Yes, yes, there is something new on the Infinite Shelf! If you stop by, you’ll notice a small change in the banner and the background; it’s nothing big, and the organisation is still all the same, so you shouldn’t get lost :-p I’ll be doing a few more little changes in the coming days – mostly just making sure the colors are all matching. I think this new banner translates many of my passions at once; my love for...

Happy Birthday, Infinite Shelf!

Happy Birthday, Infinite Shelf!

Today is the blog’s birthday Happy blogoversay, we are now 2 years old! 😀 Two years… I can’t believe it’s only been two years since I started that little blog! I feel like it’s been both shorter and longer : some days, I feel new at this, and yet I can’t remember what I was doing of all my free time in that pre-blog era. Well, okay, I do remember; but it’s so long ago my memory is like a big blur....

A new look for the blog!

A new look for the blog!

It’s been a while since I last changed The Infinite Shelf‘s look, but lately I’ve been feeling like giving it a proper make-over. In fact, it wasn’t really a complete change, but I felt like pretty-ing it up. I wanted readers to recognize it, while making it less cluttered (even though I don’t think it was that much cluttered, I really felt like I needed more “air” in the design). So I kept the color...

One Year on the Infinite Shelf!

One Year on the Infinite Shelf!

Happy Blogi.. blogovarsary… versary… Happy Anniversary! The Infinite Shelf is today celebrating its one year in existence! That’s right; today, I can officially say that I’ve been blogging for a year. I have to say, I’m quite impressed : I tried starting a blog so many times in the past, that I never thought this one would actually stick. As much as I complain again and again about how fast time goes, the day I...

Surprise! A new look for Christmas!

So, if you’re following the blog in a feed reader, you won’t see it, but I did some small changes to the blog tonight to give it a new Christmas-y look! What changed : the colors, the banners, and the thingies that separate the sidebars widgets. I know it’s a little soon, but A : I love Christmas and B : I’ll be way too busy at the beginning of December to work on this! I might add a few things here and there by then, but...
