Blogs?

[Chris 2.1]

Yay or nay? I know they can get a bit LJ-ey but I'm keen to set one up (something a lot of struggling journalists do, apparently). I was wondering if anyone here has one; what it's on, how they find it, any tips?

I've been blogging for ages, to varying degrees of success. I had over 3,000 blog views on Myspace (most I assume were from people I already knew), but this dried up when Myspace took a backseat to Facebook and Twitter. I tried a LJ, but garnered no success there. Nowadays I've moved my works to Blogger, where they're growing stagnant and ignored, but I'm pressing onwards anyway.

Best bit of advice I have, pick a catchy title for eah entry to gain more views. I once titled one of my blog entries 'NAKED PHOTOS', and it amassed hundreds of views.
Also, be sure to network. If you reach out to others, they may, in turn, read what you have to say.

Start by givin my blog a squiz, eh? ;)

I used to blog humorously, somewhat inspired by Maddox. The 2005-06 got pretty popular, but I do like the 2008 one, too.
