In many ways, blogging is like sex:
- The first attempt is likely a bit awkward and sloppy
- It improves with practice
- ALOT of people think they are good at it (though only a few really are)
- There are a million “experts” on the subject
- Sometimes it’s a bit disappointing but sometimes it is incredible
- It is 10% technique and 90% enthusiasm
- It can be completed in a few minutes or can take up a whole afternoon
- To really enjoy it you need to “get out of your head”
- There are few ways to make money from it that don’t require you to prostitute yourself
- If it’s not fun… you are doing it wrong
Great list, Kim, and so very true. I always sleep really well after a good blog post.

Thanks… “Comparative analysis” sounds so much better than “dirty-talk”!

From what I see, it appears that one must line the right side of the blog with advertisements then dedicate at least some posts to endorsing those products. Sometimes, this doesn’t seem so bad… like a blog about cats, cats, and only cats, might not be too compromised by adding a Purina Cat Chow ad (although that stuff is shit). But some of the “mommy” blogs are ridiculous. There are so many ads that it is hard to even find the posts.
