Northern Voice 2008: Talking About Authors

I can't believe it has been four years since I first blogged about Northern Voice. Sadly, I wasn't able to save those posts from the big database meltdown of 2006 but I do remember them fondly. Northern Voice is a conference about blogging, how to write, and how people may use the power of blogging software to improve their web sites.

At the moment, I am sitting in a session where five authors are talking about how they started blogging. This is one of the more fascinating talks because the discussions are about content. Why is this exciting?

More on this later...

buy the book, blog your world, feel like a million bucks

Just in case you didn't know, I co-wrote Blogging For Dummies! Before you send me any congratulations, questions, flowers, or blow me any number of kisses  - why don't you go buy ten copies and make me rich and famous.  

Or you could just buy a copy since it is a really good book and it has loads of great information for those of you out there who want to jump into blogging because it is fun and exciting.

podcasting

What else do I do? I talk out loud, record it, and post it on line. I chatter about all kinds of things. Some of the things are nerdy, some professional, and some of them are very much NSFW. Why? Because do them for myself and my non-work life. You can be the judge.
