Get Fed: RSS Day May 1
If you don’t read blogs via a handy feedreader, you should. It saves sooo much time.

Penelope was recently featured in a TV segment about professional blogging here.

Introducing Bob Meets World
I’ve had the pleasure of chatting online with a blogger named Bob Jones who is using my Web 2.0 WordPress theme on his month-old blog and have just been amazed at his success.

His 5 […]
Linkbait These 40 Big Boys and Girls
Frantic Industries has a post listing the Top 40 Blogs according to their Feedburner reader stats.
I’d venture to say … get linked by ANY of them, especially if they’re in your blog topic, and you’re likely to score some HUGE traffic and launch your blog onto a whole new level.
On my main blog, I found […]
