I have to admit... The blogging world has completely swallowed up the past several days for me. As if I didn't know already that this is quickly becoming an obsession, James asked the moment I grabbed the laptop tonight "What? Blogging again?" Yes, yes, I am.
What started out as a simple test for work, then just kind of a thought that was put on the back burner, has now blossomed into a full force research project. The more blogs I read, the more I want to know how they did some of the cool stuff on their pages.
Exhibit A: Airing My Dirty Laundry, One Sock at a Time. I now have discovered how to create a book for Kindle. I've always wanted to write a book, though I'm not sure that I will. But thanks to seeing it posted on her page, I now know how to go about it if I should ever decide to.
Exhibit B: Freelance Lady. By combing through some of her posts I was able to find www.cj.com which is an amazingly easy site to use for people who are looking to advertise on their blogs. You'll note to the right the new section labeled Awesome Affiliates. I added the Google AdSense, but at least with CJ it's companies I know and actually shop at. I feel much better promoting places I actually know something about.
Exhibit C: Mamamusing. I have officially joined my first link up today. Not sure what it will bring to my site, but it directed me to a couple cool new blogs to follow. In following them, it led me to www.BlogLoving.com which coincidentally allows you to link your Blogspot right into it. No double posting like I've found on the other directory sites like BlogHer.com.
I didn't realize when I first started this page just how evolved the Blogging world has become. Speaking as someone who works in marketing, these are things I should know. That I need to know. I'm just excited that I decided to give it a second look because there's so much to learn. To steal McDonald's tagline...
"I'm lovin it!"
