What Should I Blog About?
\"If I were going to start a blog now I would
go very, very, very niche -- as niche as
you can get...if you pick something
specific and maybe that's not too
heavily covered yet, you have a chance
to establish yourself as a voice in that
area.\"
Peter Rojas, founding editor of Gizmodo and
chief strategy officer of Weblogs, Inc.

Stimulating Good Conversation
The best discussion leaders take the skills of a great
interviewer and apply them to their online
communities, writing with a style that acknowledges
and builds upon previous comments, sustaining the
momentum of threads and eliciting knowledgeable
responses. Smart, personal and well-informed words
help these writers make their readers feel that they
cannot possibly spend even single day away from the
conversation.
