Blogging basics

For many people just understanding the concepts of blogging is half their battle.  And now with Twitter available a lot of people are questioning why bother to blog in the first place.  Good thoughts, but truth be known just like going to the theater to see a Movie vs see it on TV there will always be people who want have it on the big screen vs 28 inches or in other words; read the whole article vs. the 140 charachters!  So remember blogging can still be the answer to some of your readers and your followers.

Blogging doesn’t need to take a lot of time in your day and if you are writing about something you are passionate about it most likely only takes you a few minutes to type something up and get your thoughts out.  And if you are really think about it you could actually have someone do the work for you.  You may have to pay for it but there are people out there that offer this as a service. 

To learn more about blogging and to understand it you don’t even have to read about it on line, at your local book store (be it Amazon, Barnes and Noble, or Borders) you can find books on the subject.

Here is a book I highly recommend;

Naked Conversations by Robert Scoble and Shel Israel

Actually what I consider a fun and interesting read - if you are into “how” and the “benefits” with some great company stories - this is an excellent read.  I have dog eared and underlined many parts of this book.  Fascinating read.

 

 I will have some other recommendations in the coming weeks ;-)

Sassyword a beginning

Sassyword came about last year 2008, when I, Saskia would get questions from friends and family how to blog.  You can read more about me at About us.

So the idea of this blog / website is to link you and educate you in the value of blogging.  Use this site as a resources site for blogging and bloggers.  It is our aim to be of service to you.  We plan to give you insights into books, reviews, recommendations etc.  We also want to introduce you to people who we feel will be a of service to you.  There are people out there that know more than me about blogging, but we plan to interview them, link to them and give your resources to others out there that can help you with creating the blog that you, or your company need.

Resources and outsources are the key to make your life “The Ultimate Life”.  To understand the Ultimate Life more please read the about us to understand why we are an advocate for the Ultimate Life.
