Blogger Etiquette - Pt 1

If Emily Post were defining etiquette in the modern world, I am certain she would have quite a bit to say about blogging. And a cardinal rule for bloggers would, no doubt, be the following:

Never, ever ask people if they have read or are reading your blog.

This is a tough one to follow. I must admit I have broken that rule many times, and I apologize. But no more! You see, I’ve thought of some new ways to keep my blog on the forefront of people’s minds to ensure consistent reading.

Some examples:

1. I've got a great idea! Let’s write a list of words that rhyme with "smog"!

2. Who doesn't love a puzzle to sharpen the mind. Try this one: Change one letter in each word to create a new word.

Clo_
_log

3. Let’s play 10,000 Pyramid. I’ll give the clues. Ready?

It’s bigger than a breadbox…its red and gray… it’s a little dumb… it has numerous references to Oreos…it’s like a 79-hour Melissa monologue…

4. Hey I know. How about a song? I’ll teach you. Here we go:

There was a nice girl
who liked to write
and blog oh she did
oh
B-L-O-G oh!
B-L-O-G oh!
B-L-O-G oh!
and blog oh she did oh

Ok, now your turn!

With these brilliant gems, I'll never break the cardinal rule again.
