Today is my 1000th post, something I would have never expected to get to so fast, but then I've always been a bit of an old windbag! For the number crunchers amongst you, my average is 2.28 posts per day. So to celebrate, I thought I'd share some of my thoughts and experiences on blogging.
- A blog is alot cheaper than Counselling!
- Blogging is another great form of networking
- Comment, if you want comments
- Lifes mundane offerings, can be blogging gems
- If it made you laugh, others probably will too
- To meet bloggers, you need to visit blogs
- Write with honesty about what you know
- Keep a list constantly handy to write blog ideas down
- Photographs make a long 'wordy' post digestable
- The majority of bloggers are just nice, normal folk
- Rise above the few that aren't, they're not worth it
- Try to come up with a regular fallback feature
- 'Followers' are very nice, but not what it's all about
- Always acknowledge sources and give backlinks
- Join in a group blog event like Skywatch, it's fun
- If you wouldn't say it face to face, then save it
- Always carry a camera, pictures can make great posts
- Have fun, and if you're not, take a break
- Bloggers: Lifes Orators Giving Great Entertainment Real Style!And now onwards with the next 1000!

But I still love you Sarah! I'm so glad you started blogging.

Congrats! Thats awesome. 2.28 posts a day, thats a lot of writing. I admire you for that.
Very good list, with perfectly sensible advice.
Congrats on reaching that milestone! I'm sure another 1000 won't take long. Love your blog. It is always a pleasure when I can find time to pop over and see what you've been doing, seeing, saying, etc.
I agree about your fallback feature (especially loved your purse one). In case, it sounded like I have a negative opinion of those, my hesitation is merely with those ones where everyone copies the link and then leaves a long list of people/bloggers who participated. Those seem like such a lot of work. Then again, maybe I'll try jumping on that bandwagon once my little guys are in school full-time and I find more time for blogging.
