Blogs are one of the most valuable marketing tools ever created. I started blogging in September 2003, and since then I have written almost three thousand posts. I'm proud of this blog mostly because it serves two personal Gods for me: my love of writing and my love of sharing. with his post: Watching Mitch Joel Blog.

But really, how many blogs does a gal need? If you and I talk regularly on Twitter, or Facebook… heck, even in the early days of WUL (and I have to stifle a giggle as I say that, because this blog is barely two years old!) So it’s probably high time that I started a food blog. Image: kennymatic via Flickr, CC 2.0.

As you continue to hone your craft (as I try to do), here are some of the exercises I put my writing (and those of my guest bloggers) through on a daily basis, to see if it looks as attractively as it (I think) reads. I just get kicks out of mobile blogging w/ multimedia.

And they wouldn’t bother to poke around on the blog to find it.

Blog design sure has come a long way since I started doing them 6-7 years ago. Sidebars were crammed full of stuff that would take you away from the site (blogrolls, sponsor ads, Google Ads) along with things that really didn’t need to be there (remember tag clouds?). Today we’re in the midst of a new evolution for blog sites.
