Much better- does your blog have spellcheck?

I wasn't saying there shouldn't be any kind of intro- but one that says basically nothing isn't helpful in getting people to come back.

Make your blog compelling from the get go- otherwise, why should I read it over the 18 trillion other blogs out there?

No, its more an open ended pop culture blog. I was just inspired by NE saying i should comeout with guns blazing. Its a blog post and a smart ass response in article form :)

As far as an intro, i will be expanding the "about me" page to explain why I am bothering.

Yes it does, and I reminded myself over and over to run it before submitting, then forgot while adding the images. Thanks for catching that, i need to pay closer attention :)

Or i will have to start a new one: Fat Fingered Retard.

you earned me $0.02 and for that, you have my eternal gratitude :)


Oh, and lest you think my pimping would end with a simple blog, check out my article for Associated Content:
http://www.associatedcontent.com/art...if.html?cat=40


it is the first official time i have been published, so its kind of a big deal to me :D

Congrats on the publication.

I believe in this paragraph:

Quote:

I will most likely be accused of viewing the past through rose colored glasses; it's not like most of these things were just attempts by soulless corporations to make money. Of course they were,
You mean "it's not like most of these things wereN'T just attempts" ...

That way what you're saying makes sense.....

I hope it doesn't seem like I'm picking on you- mistakes in published works are a pet peeve of mine.

i will have to check the Word copy I wrote to see if that was my mistake or theirs. I read through it myself and it irritates the hell out of me that it made it past the editors....

I appreciate the feedback and i am flattered you read it thoroughly enough to catch that :)

I guess I'll have to proofread better.,

For what its worth, I am taking it as constructive criticism, which only makes me better,
