Hello

     'Hello' is one of the most friendly words in the English language.  I recommend that people use it more.  It makes people feel good, especially if delivered with good intent.

     My writing got called 'verbal diarrhea' by a man I'm not especially fond of today on facebook.  Nice of him, huh?
     I see him on an almost daily basis, and I've seen him around for over fifteen years.  I never see him writing anything.
     Who knows?  Maybe he is a famous author, but I know he isn't.
      I can handle a critique, or suggestions, but I don't need his particular brand of 'sour grapes meanness'.
      I had a mean brother growing up, I don't need another one of those.  I've had enough of people like that who just say everything I do is bad, and that I can never do anything good.  Screw them.

     Anyway, let's see...'About Blogging'.  It is my intention to write about blogs.

     I don't exactly know what the precise content will be, but I will have fun exploring 'The Blogging World'.  Maybe I will make some discoveries.

     I have tried other blogs, particularly 'wordpress'.  It seemed too serious to me, like all of a sudden I was writing for an English teacher I didn't like.
     Blogger seems a lot more enjoyable to me, and easy to use.  Plus, it is linked to my adsense account, so it makes sense to concentrate on Blogger.
     I'm not against trying other blogs, though,...just not at this time.  I have more than enough to keep me busy.

     I have noticed at this point, that even just starting a new blog, and writing a couple of entries will earn me some hits.  The newness of the blog is the selling point.  Maybe some people are curious, maybe it is automated bots, who knows?  So, it is worth it for me to keep creating new blogs.  I hope to create at least one-hundred, and then go from there.
     Whenever I get a good idea for a blog, I'll just start a new one.  Easy as pie.  Or punch.

     So there you go, and I hope you enjoyed reading what I had to say so far about blogging.

     ( 'Diarrhea' is not an easy word to spell.  I had to look it up in a real dictionary, but then I used the search bar to find this commonly misspelled word.
      A lot of people misspell this word, because it is hard to spell in the first place, and because most people don't use this word that often, because the subject is so disgusting. )

     Anyway, there you go....so stay tuned.

     Oh yeah, I just remembered a conversation with a friend who works for Google.  He said that most people wait two or three weeks to update a blog.  I think that is a mistake, because you don't want people you have hooked into reading your stuff to come back and not find new content.  They eventually stop looking at your stuff if you don't have new posts at least once a week.  That is my two cents...laters.

     Final Note:   Read over your blogs once in a while, and edit them.   What looked good or made sense at the time of writing might make no sense a week or two later.
     Always go for clarity, and your readers will thank you for it.

     One more thing:  The more work you put into your blogs, the more you'll get out of it.

     One more additional thing:  Love what you do, or why bother?
