Proud To Be A Blogging “Brand” Newbie
I just finished reading a blog post entitled “10 Easy Ways To Make Yourself Look Like A Blogging Newbie”. It is a satirical article poking light-hearted fun at being a blogging newbie while at the same time illuminating us to the amateurish mistakes we make.
The article was posted on May 19th 2007, has 128 comments and still generates comments today.
I’d say this author knew this post would strike a nerve with his audience.
