Your Words Travel the World Thursday 2007-01-11
By automatic syndication and by your loyal subscribing readers, the words you write, will travel far and wide. And fast! They may meet and influence people of different age and sex and from different cultures. Manuel Amador of weblog tools collection has written an interesting essay, “The wonderful journey of a blog post“, on this very subject.
It is humbling, and it makes you think ( again ), on your own blogging efforts. Is what I write about interesting enough? Would anything of it offend someone? In short, do I care about my readers enough?
Well, I promise to try. For now, I’ll say no more. Read the article and get amazed!

2 things:
1. I’m only associated with WTC because my article is on their contest.
2. Do NOT concern yourself about offending your audience. If I have learnt anything in years of blogging, is that offended audiences are the most rabid readers and effective spreaders of your word. Now, don’t necessarily offend them, but a couple roughed feathers won’t harm anyone, and they could benefit you.

Thanks for your comment and correction. I was a bit hesitant when I wrote “of weblog tools collection”, as I thought your article might your only association.
Hopefully I didn’t offend you – by the way
Your view on the effect of being slightly offensive are truly interesting!
And then of course I’m happy to see your Gravatar. In my opinion more people should use them, to personalize their appearance on the big web.
