Tips for blogging

Here’s a series of posts I wrote in 2009. I will probably update these one day, but I don’t think I’ve changed my thinking too much.

• Blog regularly
• Don’t blog for comments
• If you want hits, write lists
• If you need to write about stupid stuff in order to keep writing, then write about stupid stuff.
• If you want regular readers comment regularly elsewhere.
• Blog mythbusting: is less more?
