X-List bloggers need exposure, too!
Feb 1, 2008 Audience Participation, Blogging, Internet, Linkage, Money
I was thinking of a way to drive more traffic to my site, and I have been reading on several different blogs that a (somewhat) decent method to get attention is to interview bloggers.
The only problem is I’m not any kind of interviewer or anything. I just blog about dumb stuff. Why would an A-list blogger waste their time letting me ask random questions?
So I propose this - if you want to get some exposure for your unknown (or semi-unknown) blog, and don’t mind fielding a barrage of silly questions from someone on a sugar/caffeine rampage, then drop me a line below. If you are special (and we know that you are), I will do a quick interview with you for posting on this site, as well as your own. Heck, you can post it wherever you like. Linkage galore…or epic fail.
Fire away! Or you can interview me if you like. I’m boring. But let’s face it…we can be the A-list of the future via a stupid idea like this!

1001 Bloggers Needed!
Dec 29, 2007 Audience Participation, Blogging, Charities, Linkage
I received this comment on my Less Is More post:
Would you be kind enough to consider taking part in the 1001 Bloggers page which is at http://mencap.wordpress.com
We have just started, and we have about 30 links in place at present, leaving just 970 to go. I hope you will feel able to take a look.
I picked your blog because of the ‘blogging’ tag on your recent post, via the wordpress homepage.
If you have any queries about the 1001 Bloggers page, or if you just want to check this isn’t spam, please feel free to email me at davidtheheads.co.uk
Kind regards

Mencap is a UK charity that helps to fund learning disability research (I could be wrong on that, I didn’t check too deep into it).
The 1001 Bloggers project is to raise money for this charity. There are 1001 squares where you can have your avatar featured (which links to your blog) at the cost of about $10 U.S. They still need about 972 bloggers to reach their goal (at the time of this posting).
Due to circumstances at home, I cannot donate right now, but perhaps you can! Not only do you get more traffic for your blog (which is right up your alley if you write about learning disabilities), but you help a good cause.
Check it out! Tell ‘em The Sugarbuzz Project sent ya!

Bad Advice
Dec 27, 2007 Audience Participation, Funny
2007 is (finally) coming to a close. It’s the time of year that people begin thinking about ways to improve upon their performance of things from the past year. Everyone wants to change something about themselves, and most of the time those ‘resolutions’ fall by the wayside within weeks of the new year’s beginning.
I have made one resolution: I would like to lose weight. Yeah, I know…kind of silly because everyone says that. But really, I need to lose at least 75 lbs. this year. Yes, I’m that fat. Yes, I still get around and work a normal job (so other than my size I’m in pretty good health). But I am getting older.
I’m even setting up a new blog to track my ‘progress’ or lack thereof.

It’s still in the infantile stages, so you might not want to look just yet.
So, considering how everyone wants to change for the better, what about those who just don’t care anymore? Ever wonder what kind of resolutions they make? What kind of bad advice can you give someone who is down in the dumps?
Because everyone knows that there’s no advice like bad advice.
This is the part of the blog where you post your comments…what is the worst advice you have either given to someone or received?
