When you think of what makes an update or conversation especially attention-worthy in Facebook, it helps clarify what makes a good blog. You can find articles anywhere online, but blogs are a different form of media.<br /><br />Sara and Alfred, yes, it took me a long time to kick the academic-speak habit. Part of what I like about blogging is that I can be even more conversational than in most of the articles I write. (Sara, don't you love the free istockphoto images? This one helped me generate the topic for this post.) <br /><br />Alfred, yes I read Problogger. Another excellent one is Copyblogger.Amanda Vogelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14183824337443331641noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4757526091075948849.post-25960687309032074572010-10-26T12:19:48.893-07:002010-10-26T12:19:48.893-07:00Amanda,

I taught a student Kinesiologist to write to the audience of our blog in an informative, yet entertaining way rather than the academic tone she is used to needing for research papers. Long posts lose my attention. Short, sweet and to one topic is how I like them.<br /><br />Have you read "Problogger"?Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11734696498418784529noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4757526091075948849.post-25450054881865465012010-10-26T11:48:34.757-07:002010-10-26T11:48:34.757-07:00I blog a couple times per month and my content is ...I blog a couple times per month and my content is different than what you'd find elsewhere by me. My dad, who is a college professor, makes fun of my grammar in my blog. I keep telling him, it's a blog not a textbook!

Seems successful blogs offer a unique rich experience, but one that is heavily reminiscent of enjoyable social media.
