Getting Biz-zy
Biz Stone's book titled Who Let the Blogs Out? may have the corniest name in the history of all literature ever written, but the fact of the matter is he has helped revolutionize a billion dollar industry with weblogs.
The author offers many insightful tips to future bloggers and also details how he himself advanced so far in this field. His biggest point was that links are what enable blogs to thrive. Links are the key to success. A person may find a link and tell others, leading to a vast web of readership. He stresses that weblogging is a community practice. People must want to be a part of it.
Another important piece of information was that every blog should be an individualistic approach. Every digital author should bring something new and refreshing to the table. Readers will only be interested in works that they have not seen or been a part of before. Creativity is what makes the blogging world go ‘round.
The book is written in a informal manner. It uses prose and verbage that is hip and young which appears consitent with an author of a blog. His book is though he thought of his ideas and merely put pen to paper. Nothing is over thought.
This book was an enjoyable read. It educates, illuminates, and entertains. The not-so-modest author’s (his website is titled Biz Stone, Genius) book can be purchased on at Amazon.com
