Blogging – One Chris tells you why, another Chris tells you how

The 1st Chris

Chris Brogan Blog

Chris Brogan Blog

On the topic of startups, Chris Brogan says if he were to start today “No matter what, the very first piece of social media real estate I’d start with is a blog. It’s a website, with lots of built in features that make it useful from a search perspective, and simple from a content creation perspective. That alone is worth the price of admission.” And Chris should know.

Chris Brogan is a ten year veteran of using social media to build digital relationships for businesses, organizations, and individuals. Chris blogs at www.chrisbrogan.com, a blog in the top 10 of the Advertising Age Power150, and in the top 100 on Technorati.

With a blog virtually anyone can publish their thoughts, ideas and opinions to millions of potential readers.  In return, those readers can “participate” by expressing their view points or comments.  This method of communication is allowing all of us a means to become involved in information rather than just being passive consumers of it.

Free Hosting Rescue

Free Host Rescue

Men and women have been going out onto the water for thousands of years. There is something inherently adventurous about the sea, and those who make their living off-shore are a brave and daring group. Even the most seasoned mariner can get into trouble, and when they do, the Coast Guard Search and Rescue are there. Search and Rescue is the oldest and noblest Coast Guard mission.

In 1994 when GeoCities launched, having a website was not as common nor as easy as it is today. Since then, millions have jumped into the internet’s waters with GeoCities free sites. They created websites that showcased their community, shared information about their businesses and displayed their creative endeavors. By now you probably know that Yahoo is shutting these free sites down this summer.

Rescue Swimmers are in the water!
