Random Rebel Blog Basics -- Updated!
Sunday, April 22, 2007 at 10:13PM
From my time away on Wordpress.com:
My intent here, with The Rebel Blog: Daily Update!, is to post daily, at about the same time everyday, for Mom's Coffee Break. We all need to take one everyday, whether we are working outside the home or at home (like me).
I invite anyone and everyone to join me anytime to take a few minutes, to chat about whatever is on our minds. I encourage Comments and interaction!!
Today's post, since I have been distracted cleaning bathrooms and what-not:
Random Rebel Blog Basics:
#1 - Posts should be short (100 - 200 words), interesting, not completely self-absorbed or self-serving.
#2 - Ideally, there should be more tips, quick lists, pictures and images than long, rambling paragraphs. (I have to work on pics & images -- the technical mechanics of that.)
#3 - Content is Queen, and advertising should be subtle, but provide revenue to support the Community (which is good). Any advertising should be directly relevant to the content, useful to the Reader if he/she is looking for more information on the topic.
#4 - The Blog should be INTERACTIVE -- coffee break/water cooler interaction. Please join in with your comments and links!
#5 - There will be NO SPAM or verbal abuse -- Zero Tolerance, at my discretion. Because I am The Queen, dammit! (Profanity, on occasion, may be acceptable, perhaps even necessary for emphasis or effect. As I tell my kids when they catch me spicing it up once in a while: Those are 18-year-old words, never to be used in the presence of your Mother. So, as long as you are over the age of 18, and you are not in the presence on your Mother...I will not bitch about it.)
