Podcast: More tips for beginning bloggers

One of my heroes, Pam Slim of Escape from Cubicle Nation, did a “tips for beginning bloggers” interview with me for her podcast. My main points were:

  • Don’t worry about doing things perfectly; worry about producing lots of output. It’s the fastest way to improve.
  • Goal driven design and measuring success.
  • A bunch of technical stuff that makes me realize how difficult and mysterious all this stuff is for the uninitiated. It also makes me realize I could totally write a kick ass book about “demystifying blog technology”. Also, it’s really hard to try to talk about technical stuff without lapsing into jargon that only confuses normal people. I need to work on that.
