All About Blogging

1. How did you come up with your blog title OR what does it mean?
Life is a Work in Progress – it’s because everything that I plan to do lately rarely gets done. It’s because I try to do all kinds of things at the same time so the stats is always in progress. Whether it’s purchasing a house, raising a kid, managing our household, working on a new portfolio website or planning a vacation, they all end up having the same priority.

2. What are your general goals for blogging?
I’ve always been an open book. I love writing down my thoughts and sharing good finds with online friends.

3. Do people “in your real life” know that you blog and do they comment on your blog OR is it largely anonymous?
Most of my offline friends check out my blog now and they comment once in a while.

4. How often do you post (x per week)?
I blog a lot, like 3-4x a day on multiple blogs.

5. How often do you read other blogs (x per week)?
I read blogs 2-3x a week too. I try not to do this when I’m working on a deadline because time passes by so fast when I’m reading someone else’s story.

6. How do you select blogs to read (do you prefer blogs that focus on certain topics or do you choose by tone or…?)
Aside from my online friends, I really like fashion and technology blogs. I enjoy viewing photoblogs too – interiors, web site, paintings, etc.

7. Do you have any plans to copy your blog entries in any other format, 0r do you think that one day, you’ll just delete it all?
I’d like the possibility to have them printed someday especially the ones about my little girl. For not so important ones, just delete them all.

8. What are the things you like best about blogging?
Gaining friends and learning new things everyday. If you need to know something, just do a post about it and people will reply. For example, you can ask “what is the cheapest auto insurance” and you’ll be surprised at the number of suggestions you will receive.

9. What are the things you don’t like about blogging?
People reacting first before really understanding the article.

10. How do you handle comments?
I love comments even if they are negatve.

11. Do you have any burning thoughts to share on blog etiquette?
Aside from using a spell checker and avoiding too much javascripts? Respect. Don’t copy and be friendly but not too personal.

12. Any desired blog features?
Just the best spam filter that’s all.

13. Have you suffered blog addiction?
Everyday.
