I’m light on original content today…

I keep on telling people how much fun it is to have a weblog and offer my assistance whenever they need it for setting up or anything else. So here are some good posts for beginner and more experienced bloggers. I have quite a bit to take from the advice dispensed here; things that I was aware of for a while but was too lazy to implement such as a picture of myself with an “about” page and some custom style/graphics. I’ll get to it.

“The Seven Deadly Sins of Blogging” - I pretty much agree with everything written here (except I wouldn’t go comparing JK Rowlings to Shakespeare.)

If all you post say, “hey look what I found over there (link), I think it’s great and you should look at it…”, then you will eventually lose all your reader because you have nothing original to offer.

“7 Mistakes for your First Week Blogging” - Good advice here for beginners and experienced bloggers. I am just now — after nearly a year of blogging — getting over obsessing over my stats.

“Been blogging 6 months” - Great advice from a pure genius.

While we’re on the topic of lists, here’s a good one:
“The Top 100 Things I’d Do If I Ever Became An Evil Overlord”

Enjoy.
