After posting an entry via the WordPress.com forum `http://en.forums.wordpress.com/`, I’ve lurked around my weblogs again and wanted to convert my tags (found under categories) back to categories.
Because I’m dumb and blind, I never noticed this feature. It appears as the second header called:
Categories and Tags Converter
[Use this] to convert categories to tags or tags to categories.
Gratefully, this converter tool worked! I’m happy again.

Then I noticed the fourth and last tool called:
Webmaster Tools Verification (?)
Enter your meta key “content” value to verify your blog with Google Webmaster Tools, Yahoo! Site Explorer, and Bing Webmaster Center
I followed the WordPress.com instructions for this `tool` VERY slowly and CAREFULLY.
I verified `Flynn’s Blogs` successfully but not the other two WordPress.com weblogs, which probably have too little traffic for tracking statistics. As result, I’m able to see how blog traffic looks like for my main WordPress.com weblog. There are four areas for viewing blog traffic:
- Search queries;
- Crawl errors;
- Links to your site; and
- Keywords.
Finally, I found that over three hundred links from other domains were from: http://digitalangeldonnadj.com/blog/ ! How cool is that? God bless you, Mews! Brouhaha.
But there is only one subscriber to my feed! That’s sucks! Waahh!
Anyway, I’ve yet to try the other two tools:
Press This
Press This is a bookmarklet: a little app that runs in your browser and lets you grab bits of the web.
Use Press This to clip text, images and videos from any web page. Then edit and add more straight from Press This before you save or publish it in a post on your site.
Drag-and-drop the following link to your bookmarks bar or right click it and add it to your favorites for a posting shortcut.
[Press This]

Post by Email
You can publish posts using emails with the Post by Email feature. To enable this visit your [My Blogs] page and create a secret address.
I already signed up to post by email but don’t have one of those fancy cellphones to make it work. It’s a weird link but easy to memorize.
