Personal blogs vs. topic blogs…which do you prefer?

This probably will get a few comments one way or another.  :)

What do you think?

Personal blogs are great to get to know people or follow people as the live their lives.  A topic blog seems to be more what we are looking for in professional arenas, whether we are learning something at work or wanting to connect with someone that has great ideas and knowledge in a certain field.

What types of blogs to you prefer and why?

What happens behind the scenes of a blog post

I debated whether or not to post this since I could not find it again online.  I guess I will error on the side of education.  So, here is the description of what happens behind the scenes of a blog post.  I found this in Wired magazine a while ago, and now I can’t seen to find the original location of it.  I will upload it here and if anyone knows where the original one is, I will change the post.  Give credit where credit is due…thanks Wired Magazine!

Well, with Summer University upon us, I thought we could post a few key concepts here that pertain to the “Blogging” presentation at the conference.  If you would like to contribute to the blogging discussion, feel free to comment.

The first thing I wanted to post is the cool “Intro to Blogging” video I found.  I thought is was a unique approach to what a blog is.
