Oh Darren(and btw belated Happy Birthday),

You never seize to amaze me-just keep giving more and more good content. If I may suggest-now teach in real life the ‘how to’ of capturing scenes-with camera, etc.

The field is so wide-right now I’m trying to figure out how to use seesmic for my own recording and for people leaving comments. You are really a fabulous teacher.

It never fails, you always leave me thinking “why didn’t I think of that?” I’m sure you receive plenty of e-mails how do you structure your time to answer back all of therm, or do you?

I run a Japanese language and entertainment based site, and I recently came up with a new idea for content – keeping a blog of my life in Japanese. This is great for me as it forces me to actively use my Japanese and people more knowledgeable than me can either correct mistakes or even converse with me. It is also good for the readers who are learning Japanese themselves as my Japanese isn’t very advanced they will be able to read it and ask questions of me if they can’t. – compared to real Japanese websites where the Japanese is too advanced for us.

I really enjoyed your post. I found it very informative and insightful, thank you.
I teach meditation, so most of my posts come from student questions and from my own personal practice of meditation and are written in article form. I love the idea of adding video and photos to the blog and making the blog more personal, perhaps including more about my personal practice of meditation and mindfulness.
Again, great tips!

I often get a post idea from my morning beach walks, always take camera as often that will spark an idea. I am looking at recording my thoughts too for podcasting

Sometimes I don’t get a good idea for a blog for a few days and begin to panic. But something always comes along and gives me an idea in the end.

I guess the trick is being able to identify these little sparks of inspiration and not to worry about those ‘dry’ days.

I blog about my life all of the time. I am always thinking that there is nothing left to blog about for me.

The secret is paying attention. I mean really paying attention to what goes on during the course of “your day.”

Believe me if you do this you will never run out of things to blog about.

I get most of my writing ideas from clinical experience I’ve had with client situations, and working with people in general. In other words, I never go empty! I also pull subjects from my own book, and do mini-series. The everyday experiences are important, and especially when bloggers use their unique voices in portraying them.

@ Maria Palma, That is very true! Yesterday, I’ve got an idea for a post about salaries and net pay from overhearing a conversation between 2 guys on the bus.

Very appriopriate and useful advice! I’ve written several posts as responses to comments left by my readers on previous posts. The usual reader reponse is “Wow, I’m sort of famous now!”

This is a great post. Theories and ideas are important but in this game it is all about taking action. How do you implement your theories and ideas into making you money? This is what I’ve been working on at my blog.

I reminds me of sitting in business classes in college and listening to the professor talk about marketing, finance, advertising and than watching them walk out to the 89 Honda Accord. Now there is nothing wrong with that, but if you have all this business knowledge why are you making money.

Again, great post

Commenting and interaction make blogging unique. Thanks to call who have commented above me, I’ve stumbled your sites.
