Right after MSN linked to your article, they linked to one of mine:

How crazy is that? I bet they found me through you. So thanks!
Loved the article, and am glad MSN introduced me to your blog! Will subscribe right after leaving comment.
I was expecting a more from being featured on MSN, but about 10 days out, the subscribers currently stand at 1,292. So there have been nearly 130 new subscribers since the article. Not bad, but not quite what I expected such a feature might do for you.
Regardless, congratulations. I am certain that it did assist your subscriber numbers.
Wishing you continued success!
Congrats on ALL your success- much deserved!!
Great tips! I use a lot of these, but there are so many I’m surely not using them all!!! Thanks for the most excellent post.
If you ever run out of subject matter, how about an update, with veggie photo
of your sq.ft. garden. Mine is rather modified, mixed with raised beds and intensive also, but the vertical grow sections of mine are all from the Sq Ft Gardening book which I hogged from my local library for 4 wks
(Legitimate renewal - LOL) I know my grandkids are sure getting a lot out of prepping beds, planting, and caretaking their own garden plots within my larger garden. For little kids, radishes are fast to pop up, and potatoes grow very very impressively and fast also!
Congrats on the msn also
