To keep people coming back to your blog day after day you have to go through the extra effort to keep your visitors interested in your content. Think of your blog as a TV show.

Yesterday I attended another inspiring edition of Barcamp Ghent . Thank you IBBT and One Agency for making this happen! 29 November was also No Blog Day , in memory of the victims of the Mumbai terrorist attack. There are two things about this protest action: The role Twitter reporting has played in this attack reminds me of the role blogs played during 9/11, when the mainstream media were unable to...

If you're a connoisseur of the NBA blogosphere, then you know that today is NBA Stadiums Blog Day , where bloggers share their favorite memories from their favorite NBA venues. As someone who's only attended one NBA game in person, I've only got one memory and I've already shared that with you . So rather than regale with some memory of something that didn't happen, I figured this would a good time...

Health Care Law Blog (Free subscription) | 09/10/2008
David Harlow blogging on health care law at HealthBlawg tagged me via his version of 5 blogs & 5 blawgs . A new law meme started by the editor of Blawg Review in honor of Blog Day . The basic rule is to post links to five great blogs (other than law blogs) and tag five of your favorite law bloggers (otherwise known as blawgers ) to do the same under the post title "5 Blogs & 5 Blawgers"....

Today is the anniversary of King's lesser-known "I have a meme" speech. Well, actually it's not. It is, however, the day the Blawg Review Editor chose to honor the recently-passed Blog Day with a meme : "The idea is to post links to five great blogs (other than law blogs) on your blawg and tag five of your favorite blawgers to do the same under the post title '5 Blogs & 5 Blawgers'."...

Travolution was busily attending to other things yesterday, so missed the official Global Blog Day (fancy doing it on a Sunday!?!). Anyway, for the fourth Blog Day, the idea is that bloggers point to blogs that are "preferably different from their own culture, point of view and attitude". Our five: Buzzmachine : Authored by respected former journo and academic Jeff Jarvis, recommended reading...

Today is International Blog Day , and bloggers are supposed to recommend 5 new blogs to create a greater sense of community in the blogosphere. Incidentally, Blog Day was created by an Israeli, Nir Ofir , who created BlogTV which I wrote about on israelplug a while back! If only it was easy to narrow it down to 5! But that’s how this game is played, so here are some new blogs I’d recommend...

One of the wonderful qualities of the blogosphere is the number of different ways we are valuable to each other. Some bloggers give us great links to resources we find useful. Some embed delightful YouTube videos in their blog posts. Some get long series of comments that take the original post into fascinating, expanded territories. Others are especially good at getting me to think, which I love to...
