As I was reading the comments I wished I had access to this kind of advice when I first started blogging. Hearing these words of wisdom from bloggers who have been there, not only shows others what works, but also shows the kind of support that can be found in blogosphere. Again I want to express my appreciation to all of you for your input. You are AWESOME! Hi again,

I can’t thank you all enough for the fabulous advice you’re offering up to others. As I was reading the comments I wished I had access to this kind of advice when I first started blogging.

Hearing these words of wisdom from bloggers who have been there, not only shows others what works, but also shows the kind of support that can be found in blogosphere.

Again I want to express my appreciation to all of you for your input.

You are AWESOME!

I agree there is more of a committment if it's a business blog. But I think there are way too many of us who see ourselves as big players floating their duck in a large ocean. When in the Real World, we're just small fish in an even smaller little pond. (Disclaimer: I'm not referring to anyone specifically here...I'm just referring to "us" as bloggers in general.) :-) But an interesting experiment would be to pick a "succesful" A-List Cool Kid Blogger, who's 100 times "Cooler" than you are Now, go to downtown Vancouver, and ask 1000 people off the street if they've ever heard of them. Or if they even blog. I bet you the numbers aren't as great as we'd like to think. Davina

However, there are other perspectives about blogging. A blog is more than a "diary" to many people. It is a business. And in that case I can see the value of having a mentor. Anyway... I see a diary as equated to floating your rubber ducky in the privacy of your own bathtub. Float that rubber ducky in the Pacific ocean (Internet) and then you might need a mentor :) .-= Check out Davina´s awesome post: <a href="http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/ShadesOfCrimson/~3/1sDDftlg9xs/">Life Coach for the Knobs</a> =-.
