    I’m usually uninterested in “what not to blog”…I say people should blog about whatever they want to.. Now “how-to’s” are something else…her “how-to” section is certainly the most … interesting I’ve seen yet.

    most whatnotto and howto blog stuff does make me yomit. having been blogging for far longer than most people writing the stuff, it just seems absurd to think that everyone should blog the same. this list just meshed with my pet peeves.

    i forgot to mention (at least outside of the cite attribute), the rules come from http://heresmybyline.typepad.com

    but yes, violet blue’s howto’s are terribly fascinating. as are her books.

    The travel advisory is very interesting. They never say any of that on the airline tickets…

    …and it’s especially relevant given recent discussions in the forum

    I see what you mean :) . I felt like linking to it but I felt the shock might be a wee bit much for some. Or not.
