In the meantime, keep in mind, whenever you are buying/using blogging software, especially if your selecting new software, be sure that it is simple and easy to use; this will Save You Time in blogging.  If you can’t get a post in and looking good in a few minutes, you got the wrong program.

Remember, you may be using your selected package for YEARS!  So, spend a little time and select the right software for you.

It’s people who have never used or managed a blog, now getting into full gear… and…

it’s experienced bloggers going to the next level… an example that I recently saw of next generation blogging was 2advanced.com blog. They are already world class with flash, but, their blog is rather cutting edge as well.

In January, we will be discussing these trends and will give you more samples.

Best Regards…

This is NOT a BlogExplosion event, however it’s a GREAT event and I would love to see every single BlogExplosion member participate this year.

It’s simple. It’s like a walk-a-thon, except that instead of taking pledges to walk, you take pledges to stay up for 24 hours and blog. You choose the charity you will blog for, get pledges, and starting on Saturday, July 29th at 9:00am EST you will stay up for 24 hours making a post on your blog every 30 minutes.

Let’s all stay up late and make a difference together as a community. To that end, I will be setting up a special chat-room at the Shoutbox for all members participating in the Blogathon. I’m going to stay up late too and do a special radio show!

For 24 hours, BE Radio will have full Blogathon 2006 coverage. I will be your humble DJ for a whopping 24 hours straight. There will be music, contests, announcements, give-aways, call-ins and lots of tips to help you stay awake!

BE Radio is open to everyone - not just members of BlogExplosion. I will have special buttons made up and there will be more details in the next newsletter.

I’m not doing my show for charity directly, I’m doing it for you: the bloggers. This year promises to be the best Blogathon by far!

You can find all the details and sign-up at Blogathon.
