Once you start blogging and you regularly blog, you start thinking about things a little bit differently. You look at it from a bloggers angle and you start planning out your post well before you’re even near your computer. Sad, but true.
I was speaking to someone on Friday and he was telling me about this site he was launching and he said…well, if it fails, it will be a blog post. That’s the attitude!
Last week I joined a new stats program and a close friend asked me why I did that? Why pay $5/month when between awstats and analytics, we are pretty much covered as far as stats go. He didn’t care, he was just curious. I didn’t really have a compelling reason to give. I like trying out new things and I like being aware of whats out there so I can make an informed decision on what is best for me. So I responded, “I just wanted to try it. It’s a blog post either way.”
Always looking for that silver lining and it seems now-a-days we can turn anything into a blog post. Heck, I just did!
So have YOU become that person who when hearing something on the news or having a discussion with a peer or friend, is always aware of the blogging angle? I don’t mean that you actively are seeking out a blog post, but the idea just pops into your head. Sadly, I am that person.
Or are you that person that DOES things for a blog post. I have thought about that too. Just trying something out to document my experiences.
