A Ramble About Blogging: Content and Safety

By nature your blog should be something you post content to in a timely fashion. Its a chronicle of your life and your world and there are lots of things to post about daily. Some post multiple times a day, like me; while others are more methodical and will post only on a schedule….both ways are good, just different in their approach. Just think about how many things happen in your life daily that you can blog on. Some of it might be mundane but perhaps that is how you can connect with others.

When I see a blog that hasn’t been published to in over a year then it makes me wonder if it is being used as a real blog or for nefarious actions. You can never be too careful about what some blogs are there for. I say if there is content on a consistent basis its cool if it is something without having been published to in several months then its abandoned. Some use their blogs are about bots, data mining and spam which we don’t like.

I wish blocking were an option with WordPress because there are some fellow bloggers that look shady. Maybe I am being a little paranoid or perhaps just exercising an over abundance in caution. Either way I want blogging to be a great tool for self expression while being a safe place to share what is happening in your corner of the world.

Dear Followers, Thank You!

I believe you can never be too thankful for those who take time to read your posts. We have things we need to say and this is how we say it. Sometimes you can’t read them all because there is a overabundance of goodness on your reader or dashboard. Time is valuable and there isn’t enough of it to do everything you want in life and online. My friends I want you to know you inform, inspire and enlighten me as a blogger and I hope to return the favor. Keep on blogging.

Two Months on WordPress.com

I have been blogging actively for two months here on WordPress.com. My time here has been a really good one I must say. People here are creative, responsive and geeky about something like me. I really think the platform has helped me improve my blogging which is a good thing. So, I look forward for the next two months and beyond. Thank you to all who are following me for making my experience awesome.

Grace and peace to you all!

Share, Blogging Style

Reading your posts is something I enjoy doing. Getting a glimpse into your lives is a study in our common humanity. It helps me to know we are all in in this thing called life together. You pour your hearts and soul out to share what you are thinking and feeling and I think that’s awesome. Every word matters and you say it with moxie. Blogging is our way of informing the world who we are and where we come from. What makes us different can bring us together. Keep on blogging good people. Words, pix, video, audio it is a how we express ourselves here. Continue to share your story and your corner of the globe.

A Ramble About Blogging

A blog is like a book being written daily. Every blogger is the star of their story. Each blog is the chronicle of a unique character who is finding their way in the world. I love blogging, bloggers, blogs. This is literature being made in real time. You inspire me to keep on blogging.
