I made it into Girlfriend magazine again this month, nominating my top 3 photo websites.

Of course Flickr was number one, alongside the photobloggies and strobist. I originally included Nikola Tamindzic’s website instead of the photobloggies, but Girlfriend’s sub-editors deemed it inappropriate for it’s occasional nudity.

As a teenager i would take pleasure in reading my sister’s Girlfriend and Dolly magazines. At that impressionable age these mags are like your bible. They taught me all i needed to know about girls, for better or worse.

So while it’s exceedingly daggy to get a mention on a topic like blogging, i’m still quite chuffed.

I offered up some tips on blogging, they’re fairly commonsense, but are worth being reminded of.

  1. Write about something you’re passionate about; your enthusiasm will come through in the blog.
  2. Keep it fun! Blogging shouldn’t be hard work and you’ll be more inclined to update regularly if it doesn’t feel like a school assignment.
  3. Make your posts short and to the point; readers will get bored if your blog is full of wishy-washy rants.
  4. Update a few times a week. If you want readers to keep coming back, it’s good to regularly have new posts up.
  5. Take care with what you write – it may come back to haunt you.
  6. Engage with other bloggers; link to them and leave meaningful comments on their sites.

In that spirit of linking to other bloggers – my pal Elmo is blogging again. Go say hi, lest she get bored and stop. And if you’re looking for other blogs to read check out my blogroll. It’s not always up-to-date, but there’s lots in there.
