Blog survey: Sidebar

Since I’m still tutuing with the blog look and layout here, and since you lot are the folk who read this blog, I figured I’d ask you a question or two about what you prefer.

Today: the sidebar: what do you like?

Specifically, do I have the things in the sidebar in the right order. I have, in descending order, and after much consideration:

• Recent Posts, so you can quickly head to other recent pearls of wisdom that might interest you more than those at the top of the page;
• Tweets We Like, so you can get a regularly updated feed of hot topics and pithy comments, albeit slightly below the fold.

So that’s above or just above the fold. Further down:

• Tip Jar, so you can show me how much you love my work (or, as at present, how much you take it for granted – but feel free to prove me wrong );
• Recent Comments, so you can see what each other is saying (it’s further down the page, sure, but I figure if you’re interested in comments then you’ll be reading down this far anyway);
• Blogs We Read. giving you the latest posts from my own most read bunch of blogs (even further down, but there you go);

And then you scroll down even further, past stats, sponsors, searches and subscription gadgets, until you light finally upon

• Facebook recommendations from your friends;
• Popular Posts this month and for all time; 
• a cloud full of Topics; and finally
• Cue Card Libertarianism (whose links have strangely died, so I’ll have to fix that) and what’s left of my Blog Roll.

So, in your opinion…

•  do I have the stuff on my sidebar in the right order?
• what else should I have, and what should I get rid of?
