Does a blogger need lessons in blogging?

Fark, yes! Of course. Definitely. In life also we need lessons mah. Otherwise, how do we develop? Lesson in crawling, toddling, khau lui, sex, aging with grace, dying with style wateva la.

But then, what exactly is lesson in blogging? First know the technical things like how to set up a blog. Then, for fark’s sake, spend time in the sandbox in PPS and learn how to ping correctly before you subject your spanking new but dead boring blog for us to see.

If a beautiful woman strip naked and walk in public, people loves her. If an ugly babboon strip naked and walk in public, that babboon is at fault for traumatising the people around her. That is what bad blogs are all about. It is bad so keep it to yourself. (don’t argue what is bad because ‘one man’s meat is another man’s poison’)

But bad can be improved. So, bloggers need to look up to some mentors or good examples from prominent bloggers so that they can improve. I do that too. I read conspicuous amount of drliew.net, Buaya69, Loopy Meals and Thousand Words (say thank you to me, guys) before I even dare to start a blogger’s account. Oh yeah, I read a lot of blogs that I do not like too so that I don’t fall into the trap.

Then, only I dare to showcase my blog on PPS. Yes, when you PING to PPS, it means you are ready to share your thoughts.

So, I don’t see what’s wrong if a new blogger aspires to improve him/herself.

You do need a sifu/tok guru/sensei in blogging, no? But then hor, if no one wants to take you up as his/her dou dai (disciple/anak murid), you can always come to 5xmom and check out her categories under blogging.

*muahahahar, I am only promoting my blog, no offence to anyone

slithering off, looking ever so sweet*
