Link to thought-provoking blog posts about blogging?

Wayne, this looks like an excellent resource.

One suggestion: In addition to the headings you've got, I think it would be good to have one called "additional resources" where we could add links to thought-provoking blog posts or articles on blogging. One that comes to mind is Stephen Downes' post "Fads and Fanboys: The Top 10 Tricks Bloggers Use to Drive Traffic" (http://www.downes.ca/post/54933). It would sort of fit in under the heading "Anatomy of a blog" but it is wider ranging in its scope, going to the heart of why we blog, and challenging us to think deeply about how we present our ideas in our blogs.

Hi Gabi

Appreciate your feedback and that's a good suggestion.

I had originally thought about including guidelines on blogging -- but then decided to leave it out for an introductory resource on setting up a blog. This feedback confirms that leaving it out was not a good idea. Thanks for that.

Rather than squeezing it in under the "Anatomy of a blog' section, I think it warrants its own page. Thanks for that!
