Weekly Roundup - Week Ending June 22, 2007

by Sheryl Sisk

Golly geewhillikers. Friday already? Let’s hop to it!

It’s the BNW weekly roundup, social networking edition! Practical Blogging: “Social Bookmarking - What Have You Done For Me Lately?” Sounds like a song … Blog-Op: “Stumble Upon Friends Are Your Best Friends” - why SU is the cherry on the ice cream sundae of social networking sites … Blogger & Podcaster: “Social Networks: As the World Turns” (are you sensing a theme here?) … Blogging Basics 101: Plain English vid for RSS feed explanation - yay for the non-geek-speaking bloggers among us! We all rejoice (end of theme! that was fast)… Blogging for Dollars Blog: Asks the question “how often should you post to a blog?” I’ve been asking myself that very question lately and feel a post of my own comin’ on …. The Blog Herald: Lorelle’s penned a thoughtful piece on apologies and bloggers (I did one of my own on this theme a while back that I think all should read, and not because I wrote it) … About WebLogs: Deb has some great ideas to drawn non-blogger readers to your site … Yaro Starak’s got a new “mentoring” program called “Blog Mastermind” - check it out (it ain’t free but it’s cheaper than it will be later) …Problogger: Darren teaches you how to increase RSS subscribers with “10 Techniques” …  The Renegade Writer Blog: They want to know who to contact “in case of emergency.”

Have a super weekend, kids.
