Blog update: Pinterest, Instagram and new email subscriptions

The blog is now on Pinterest and Instagram! You can now follow the blog on these new (and very popular) social media services. Like Twitter, Facebook and Google+, you can follow Pinterest on either the web or mobile devices, while Instagram is for mobile devices only. The social media icons in the right sidebar of the blog have also been updated with some nice new icons from Ashe Abbott Design.

The email updates have also been updated, using the built-in WordPress service instead of Google FeedBurner. Too many bugs with FeedBurner, and the format for the WordPress emails is cleaner and simpler. Subscribers have already been switched over, so no need to re-subscribe, but you may receive a confirmation email, which needs to be responded to in order to activate the service. If not, then you are already set up ok. You can comment on posts via the comment link at the bottom and adjust your subscription preferences to immediate, daily or weekly delivery (subscribe.wordpress.com). You can also choose between html and plain text format and change delivery times for daily or weekly subscriptions (subscribe.wordpress.com/?option=settings). A new subscription form is also now in the right sidebar of the blog.
