For a couple of months now, I have been reading 4 bloggers: Court, Vic, Griz, X. The last one is the worst of that gang. So, today, I decided to tell you my opinion about Court, Vic, Griz, X and get it out of my chest. I wrote a small review about each and examples of why they are full of ... Anyway, you can read the rest on my

After a short hiatus, I'm back with my thoughts on themes, RSS feeds and splogs.

I've noticed a lot of bloggers changing their themes and I'm sure some of it was unnecessary work.
I've also noticed, while re-subscribing to feeds after clearing out my Google Reader account, that the buttons and links for feeds were eith

I think some times BZ users forget that Blogging Zoom is still a baby. March 1 will be our 5 month birth date but yet I feel that it is a blessing that folks forget that because this means that people already see us an established site.

This isn't intended to be a comprehesive guide to proper post titles. It's intended to provide a clue to the clueless.

Creating a proper post title can be an art form in itself. My personal guide is at

Kirstie Alley is following in the footsteps of Tom Cruise. Unfortunately, not his rich, successful footsteps but the crazy ones. 

Take this excerpt from an interview Alley did with the church's official magazine, where she is listed as a founding member of Scientology's "Super Power Expansion Project."

It's inevitable. The Digg Bury Brigade already exists, even though the cronies at Digg will deny it until the cows come home. My apologies to the cows.

I wrote this article with one intent: To make you aware of what will happen eventually. The BZ Bury Brigade will make an appearance and it's up to us as well as Vic a

I've been seeing too many comments, in too many places, which tell me that the commenters simply do not understand what pings, pingbacks, and trackbacks are and how useful they can be.

I wrote a guest post on another blog back in August that was widely and favorably accepted, but I went into more detail about specific

I was doing my regular daily BZ run and through a post and a comment I came on this post. I must say I was taken back and it just makes you think. I look forward to people read it and Zoom it as it may serve as a memoriam.

Garry Conn did a pretty good review of the events that recently took place (and will air on Sky News in the UK on Jan 22).

I submitted the story to Digg under the title of "3000 Reasons Why Diggers are WRONG about Bloggers" (okay, I don't remember exactly what had caps and what didn't).

I didn't do it just for Garry. I also did it

This is a second experimental post. The purpose is to see what effect it has on the first one that I did -- http://bloggingzoom.com/Money/How_to_Make_Money_Online-10/ -- and to see how well it drives collateral traffic (outbound links).

I wrote this article as an experiment. I'm looking for a particular type of traffic (not you, believe it or not). If you read the whole thing (and I feel your pain), you'll know exactly what kind of traffic I'm talking about.
