My continuing quest for information on blogging has led me to Brian Clark's CopyBlogger. Based on his post on the essential elements of an influential blog, I'm thinking I'm hitting on being unexpected and doing a fair job of telling a story (I'm hoping my arc posts qualify me there).
My concern is in the simple, credible and concrete aspects. Nobody's complained so far and all the comments I've received have been positive. It was suggested that I use the <p> html tag more to make my posts easier to read and I hope I've been doing better on that count. Credible - I like to document my posts as much as possible. Should there be any questions or concerns, please let me know and I'll do my best to provide documentation for what I write here.
Concrete - This one is always a concern to me. Working primarily as a researcher, I've learned that what what is obvious to me might not be so for others and vice versa. I'll work a little harder to provide some concrete examples in my posts. As I posted earlier, if there's something you'd like to know from NextStage's data, let me know and I'll see if I can provide it to you here.
Simple - I'm sorry. I always feel I fall down on this one. I'm told I'm much better in person than I am in print, and as much as I enjoy sharing in both media, I'll work on being better in print.
I'll work on it. Your suggestions and comments, as always, are welcome.
