Blogging to Learn… Learning to Blog

It’s funny, but as much as I try to network, be it by attending events, meeting with people, or consuming blogs, I find that the more I learn, the more I come to grips with how much I don’t know.

Many people think of blogging as a chance to be a voice… to be heard.  But while that is true to an extent, I think that to really get the most from blogging, or communicating in any way, you really have to check your ego at the door. 

To that point, I wanted to share some really valuable information that I gleaned from a couple of blogs that I follow religiously.  Jason Alba, who has been a huge help to me in many ways, writes on the blogs JibberJobber and on JasonAlba, recently found a real gem if you want to learn how to do a better blog (which, for those of you who read this article… bear with me… I will be taking much of this advice shortly )

 Additionally, Janet, who writes for the blog Newspapergrl recently pulled together some other exellent materials on how to ensure that your blog gets the “google juice” that you really are hoping for. 

Want a slick looking Blog?  The article from Jason couldn’t be better.  Want people to find it?  Thanks to Janet for passing along how to do it.  These two posts really do pull together more valuable information than any blogging self help book I have seen.

Want to learn more?  Another blog that seems to consistently have great info on the subject can be found by Alister Cameron.
