A few local thoughts about what a blog is ... and isn't.

Thanks for the link. KOB aka Patrick Thibodeau

You might want to look at this. There's a web site, Mr. Snitch in NJ, who penned a piece, in the form of a letter to the editor to the new publisher of the Jersey Journal. As I said in my note comment to him, I thought he was dead-on. Worthwhile read: http://mistersnitch.blogspot.com/2005/09/so-you-want-to-be-newspaper-publisher.html

Here's something I posted recently on blog critics. http://blogcritics.org/archives/2005/09/17/113653.php

Does the courant blog yet?

Call me crazy, but it's hard to read anything and take it seriously when penned by a guy who finds the subject of parents sending their kid off to kindergarten as interesting. Perhaps it’s the teacher in me who sees this all the time and is unimpressed, but c'mon! He was disappointed to find out that the sappy kindergarten article was usurped by comments on New Orleans? Niether sounds very appealing.

I think any blogger who writes about authentic life experiences is making a contribution, whether it's of personal interest to the reader or not. If you blog about what you know and about what you've been through, or are facing, you're blog will be better than most others.

Most people blog about what's important in their lives. And out of that you can find some real insights.
