My History of Blogging

I have a confession: I'm not a blogger. Never was, never will be. However, there are a number of reasons why this may change.

First, I work for Mashable. If I were given one slice of pizza for each time someone asked if I write for Mashable, I'd be a very, very happy (and very, very unhealthy) man with more than a lifetime amount of pizza. Well, I don't write for Mashable, but I love pizza.

Next, I chose a few topics to write about: Music, Horror Films, and the Internet (startups, technology, etc). These blog posts will be brief and to the point. Yes, I promise.

Finally, I've noticed a number of job descriptions focusing upon a candidate's blogging experience. Ruh Roh!

Overall, I expect to write a few blog posts during the week, and then maybe a few posts a day. Then, you'll wish that I never blogged at all.

Awesome! I'm glad you're jumping into this foray. It's a lot easier to just blog on Posterous to start off but eventually you'll want to optimize your articles for search engines. Just start writing. It'll get easier as you go. If you look back to my early blog posts they weren't that focused but as they say, practice makes perfect. Looking forward to seeing what you have to say buddy.
