These days, you have the option of staying home, blogging in your underwear, and not having your words mangled. I think I like the direction things are headed.
Blogging and the Internet allow us to engage in a lot more real time conversations as opposed to a one-way dump of information or a message.
Blogging is to writing what extreme sports are to athletics: more free-form, more accident-prone, less formal, more alive. It is, in many ways, writing out loud.
I've been blogging since February of 2001. When I started blogging, it was a dinosaur blog. It was me and a handful of tyrannosaurs. We'd be writing blog entries like, 'The tyrannosaurus is getting grumpy.'
It's been so amazing. I've always struggled with this barrier that I felt like I'd had up until blogging came along. Just one comment from somebody really sparks something in me. It doesn't need to be this huge war between me and the listeners anymore. I really thrive on that.
I think of us as journalists; the medium we work in is blogging.
I generally blog between 5:30 A.M. and 7 A.M. I will from time to time add something during the day, but for the most part blogging is an early morning activity for me.
The challenge with being an initiator of projects is that you are never, ever done.
I mean suspense, twists are almost impossible these days.
Write. Rewrite. When not writing or rewriting, read. I know of no shortcuts.
Nothing is impossible, the word itself says 'I'm possible'!
The key with blogging is to lay it all out there because sooner or later people are going to know what you know, so might as well be the first one to share the information and get credit for it.
Blogging is best learned by blogging...and by reading other bloggers.
Guest blogging is probably the sort of thing that you should be thinking about doing in moderation.
In at least one way we are atypical bloggers. That’s because we just keep on posting. The typical blogger, like most people who go on diets and budgets, quits after a few months, weeks, or in many cases, days.
When it gets difficult is often right before you succeed.
It should feel genuinely good to earn income from your blog - you should be driven by a healthy ambition to succeed. If your blog provides genuine value, you fully deserve to earn income from it.
When I'm blogging, I think book writing is easier and vice versa. Writing is lonely work, and the good thing about blogging is that you have immediate feedback from commenters.
Where the Internet is about availability of information, blogging is about making information creation available to anyone.
Create something people want to share.
The heart of blogging is linking - linking and commenting. Connecting and communicating - the purpose of the Internet.
The right people to start video blogging are those with a passion to tell a story.
Blogging is different from both journal-writing and writing for print. It's more fun than either of those. The freedom to write whatever I want and the unmediated connection with readers are the payoff.
Blogging is like work, but without coworkers thwarting you at every turn.
The dark side of blogging is, of course, people can be (and are) just savage and uncivilized, deeply cruel and fully unaccountable.
