8 Things every blogger needs to understand

2 comments July 9th, 2006

As you’re blogging, it’s always a good idea to keep these things in mind:

1. Every reader has an opinion - and they’re all correct.  At least, in their own mind they are.  Don’t be too sensitive about what people say on your blog.  Remember, they’re entitled to their opinion, especially if you don’t agree with it.  There are going to be people who don’t agree with you - does that make you wrong?  No, it doesn’t.  Just because you don’t agree with others, doesn’t make them wrong either.  Let them have their opinion, and use it to encourage discussion.

I found a great site here that gives you the coding instructions to add ‘emoticons’ to your blogspot blog.

:O

I hope you enjoy adding these to your blog too.

My Sunday, lovely Sunday

Yesterday - Sunday - was a lovely day. Considering that we’ve had almost a week’s worth of freezing cold, torrential rain, and general nasty storminess, yesterday was an absolutely fantastic day!

We started the day by having brunch (breakfast/lunch) with some friends, and then going for a walk around Oriental Bay.
