I came across a page of notes from a blogging panel I attended. This may have come from my visit of Story@HOme conference. These are very old notes so we’ll see how coherent they are.

– Seek out blogs that cover the same stuff you present as that will be the people most likely to hop over to your blog.
– Seek out information about web site optimization
– Start a blog and tell your friends you have a site.
– Tag/label is technology that gives you a chance to put a label on each of your comments (I need to do this)
– When you look up terms on the web it will give you a list of common phrases.
– When use pictures ask permission and give source.
– Check out media fire.
– For used photos, use backlink to give credit
