Yes, that'd be a massive book! Luckily, my blog only goes back to 2008. I only printed 2009 and 2010 in this book... I'll go back and do 2008 later.

Oh man I wish I had heard of this sooner. I had a blog from 2004 to 2007 and then my database got corrupted and I lost everything. I had everything from high school to my pregnancy with our son & his birth. I cried when I lost it all. All of those thoughts & emontions are gone.

I think I'll do it for my current blog.

How cool is that! I don't blog, but if I did, I would consider it.

It's totally cool. I used to blog for 4 years, but would NEVER print it (it was personal and it would be embarrassing to have it printed), but if I did a generic kind of blog, this would be perfect.

I looked into this a couple of years ago as I'd love to put my blog from 2005-2008 in a book. Did you have any trouble with the formatting? I think that was what my problem was - trying to get the pictures and text to look nice. But things could have changed by now.

Yes, you can do a lot more in the software now. You can even create your own layouts in it and adjust the size of pics and text boxes.

Gosh, how sad! That is partly why I got it printed... in case my blog got erased somehow!

I love it! I love your cover!!

I printed a 2004-2007 one (it's HUGE!) and then after that each year is it's own book. I need to make my cover and get my 2010 printed!! I might have to borrow your idea. I always use a picture but I kind of like it without!
