Today I’ve added a ProBlogger In the Press page to this blog as a central place to list the mentions this blog has had in mainstream media (and some of the larger online news sources.
My name is Darren Rowse and I’m a full time Blogger making a living from this new and dynamic medium from blogs like Digital Photography School and TwiTip - Twitter Tips.
Back in 2002 I stumbled upon an article about ‘Blogging’. I didn’t know it at the time but that moment changed my life. Since then I've become a full time blogger and have blogged on over 20 blogs and co-founded the b5media blog network.

Good move, Darren. One thing though, I don’t like the use of the third-person. Maybe it’s okay for a proper media kit (one to attract advertising and/or to attract media publicity) but it’s still basically a page for potential new visitors to see how much coverage you are getting in the MSM.
Personally, I’d write the page up as a normal “first-person” post and then offer a link to a fully-fledged pdf “media kit”.
And I know what you’re going to say: By writing “I” have been in this media and “I” have been in that media it might make you seem like you’re tooting your own horn too much … but stiff, no one’s going to do it for you.
just my 2 cents worth
