New Year's Blogsolutions
Well, with the New Year fast approaching, I thought it would be a good time to take stock of my life, and blogging is one aspect of that life. With that in mind, I have compiled a list of New Year's Blog Resolutions -- or Blogsolutions, if you will -- that I thought I'd share. Maybe you'd like to share you list, too.
(This list is not so much for you, the reader, but for me to refer back to from time to time to make sure that I'm doing my blog job, or blob, if you will...)
Here we go:
Bill's 2006 New Year's Blogsolutions
1. My ire for our country's political climate well-known at this point, I will try to be more vicious in my comments about it, leading people to want to personally attack me more than they ever dreamed.
2. I will post more often -- on this and the other two blogs I run -- with hopes of informing and engaging readers.
3. I will post more cute crap than ever before.
4. I will FINALLY upload my vast archive of multimedia projects for your perusal.
5. I will encourage and promote the blog as a valuable communication tool.
6. I will try to elminate grammatical errors in my posts.
7. I will not shy away from posting my true thoughts about issues, regardless of how "outnumbered" I am.
8. I will thank Josiah and Ron repeatedly for maintaining this FREE, CONVENIENT service.
9. I will try to post about the Red Sox more often.
10. I will try to post more pictures.
11. I will try to be of help to somebody via the blogosphere.
12. I will admit when I'm wrong, or when my convictions have changed, via my blog.
13. I will praise and direct readers to blogs worthy of attention.
14. I will use the blogosphere as an added outlet to my other media outlets in order to provide the community with more useful, helpful and important information. I will push myself into fatigue to do this, as this medium is too powerful to be taken for granted.
15. I will try to watch my language and be respectful of those I disagree with. (Notice I said "try.")
16. I will use this blog as a creative writing outlet and a message board to exchange ideas with fellow creative folk.
17. I will use this blog to stay in touch with my friends and loved ones out of state.
18. I will use this blog to let other people learn about me and, hopefully, as a means to learn about others.
19. I will limit my discussions about "the importance of blogging," but will meet to discuss it AWAY from the blog.
20. I will try to liveblog more often, as well as organize and produce audio and video podcasts.
21. I will try to make money via my blog.
22. I will try not to delete comments.
23. I will laugh loudly in the faces of those who ridicule blogging in favor of, say, message boards, which are (essentially) the same thing, just circa 1993.
24. I will laugh loudly at myself for being such a dork about all this.
25. I will do all of this and more.
