I was a little bit or a lot to be fair confused of the blogging thing and here i go asking super idiotic questions adn torturing RAM my fav lecturer n friendly guide on the topic that i misunderstood most. Also misguided most of my friends with perceptions that sounded foolish after this conversation. Well may be It helps to talk to such friends.
But to be fair I wanted to influence friends that spoke eloquently and uninterrupted to put that in black and white, so told them blog is informal and you can write it like SMS. No serious work just your usual lingo. That infact worked and a lot of them are writing now(though not reggular).
Here you go….
veeru: i hav resolved 2 write somthin everyday
srramakrishna: great!
veeru: yeah
srramakrishna: 1) choose your area (what you are going to write about… pets, politics, hyderabad, secularism, religion)
veeru: mm
srramakrishna: 2) your blog can be about one of them (focused) or all of them (general)
veeru: can i , i mean capable of writng 1 single topic?
srramakrishna: 4) hyperlink wherever possible
veeru: ok
srramakrishna: 5) revise what you have written several times before you post it
veeru: that means it shall take several hours b4 i post once ?
srramakrishna: 6) use pics, embed video links, make it as colourful as possible. even pics taken from a mobile phone look good on blogs
veeru: ok
srramakrishna: not several hours… revise thoroughly after writing something
