Sphere Blog 
Thank you for the plug!
While I have your attention, I want to tell you something that I have learned about related posts and mysql database. You may have your techies check into this: You actually get better matches by testing on the subject/title only and not on the content. I read that while researching and then I tested it. I changed my related posts plugin, built the keyword table and tested the results on several blog entries. The result was VERY POOR matches. Then I went back to just running it by the post title and got back my VERY GOOD matches. I do not know the technical reason why this is so, but as I say, I read it (so someone else discovered it) and then I tested it. Your techies will love sleuthing this one out; perhaps they can combine both methods or use one as a default when nothing or too few are found.
ok nuff of that!

I guess one good plug deserves another (double-entendre intended). 😉
Many thanks for the “casual” mention and plug for my new blogs. Who would have ever thought one could launch a blog focused only on tomatoes?
Again, many thanks.
