I don't know if everyone who signs in to igoogle has this, but on my page there is a section called "How to of the Day". How can a person like me resist seeing what is up there everyday? I mean, I obsessively watched DIY network to the neglect of my school work, apartment, and personal hygiene until all of my favorite shows got cancelled. Needless to say, I usually end up reading whatever article is up there. I am a little concerned though, and I am fully aware that expressing this concern will make me sound like a conspiracy theorizing narcissist.
I feel like google is trying to tell me something.
It was all fine and great back when the topics coming up were things like "How to take better pictures" ( http://www.wikihow.com/Take-Better-Photographs) or "How to make a yarn octopus", (http://www.wikihow.com/Make-a-Yarn-Octopus). You know these are things that I genuinely want to know how to do.
But
Lately, the How tos of the day have been getting a little personal. "How to Lose Belly Fat" (http://www.wikihow.com/Lose-Belly-Fat), "How to Stop Being so Needy" (,http://www.wikihow.com/Stop-Being-Needy) "How to Stop Procrastinating"(http://www.wikihow.com/Stop-Procrastinating). Then, the worst one so far "6 Ways to be More Feminine." (http://www.wikihow.com/Be-Feminine) OK, igoogle I get it...hints taken.
jeez.

Hey! It's nothing personal! :D The featured articles are picked out by wikiHow, and the topics you mentioned are actually very commonly searched topics, so they hit home for a lot of people. =)
Ha Ha! Don't get me wrong, I LOVE the wikiHow website...I was just trying to be funny. Please don't arrest me wikiHow police!
wikiHow loves you too ;-) Have you thought about coming on over and sharing some of your knitting projects? Might be a good way to promote your Etsy products, like this contributor does:
