?Still don?t know what I was waiting for? David Bowie

I love the new change in the registry. Instead of slowly trying to find everyone that is following me I can click on the ?Followers? and easily find out. I started to check out who was following me so I could see what they collect and maybe find out more about them; get a few ideas on a couple more articles or even something new to collect. I am still waiting for Lee K to write about the ?Go-Go? collection.

I wrote a Journal called Making Friends. I had only 20 friends follow me then and I tried to find out who they were to return the favor, at the time I was only able to find seven. This new change to the registry helps me to do that. I also got a kick that some follow me and no one else. I feel honored by this. I am beyond words that 29 people (29 was when I wrote this at work, and now 30 since I am typing this up at home) are currently following me. Pleased seems to egotistical; happy seems weak. I encourage you to follow others. This way the registry grows even more.

The other change I am still discovering is being able to look up a journal in the new search area. They still might be working on this because when I type in CGC vs. PGX my Best Laid Plans journal shows up. I thought maybe it looks up by title but it seems to also look throughout the text of the journal as well because when I typed in CGC, a lot more journals showed up. After my third try, my CGC vs. PGX title showed up along with ?Less than 24 Hours? and ?My 50th Journal?. I just had to type the title exactly how I posted it.

All in all, it is still pretty cool. I don?t know how well this link works but I decided to try entering New Mutants in the search box, and it seems that 101 out of the 153 journals I have I had something to say about them?.definitely obvious that they are my favorite title.

Every time I get a response from a Journal and every time I find out someone new was following me (either here or on twitter @CGCLee) I wish to write more. There are so many things I want to write about. I have my interviews I have to transcribe to paper. I need to inform you about my 5 minute cursory glance in ?Ten to Send Part Two?. I want to tell you that I finally got insurance for my collection. I'm about to research how to photograph slabs and let you know a manufacturer's defect won't count against you.

With this change in the registry and more and more signature series being offered I wonder what else CGC has in store for us. I guess we can do a couple things to find out, the main one: suggest to Gemma what we would like to be changed and wait.

Thanks for reading
