On Starting a Blog for The First Time

An Anonymous "visitor" (euphemism for "spammer") wrote:

"Hi there! I know this is kind of off-topic but I had to ask. Does running a well-established blog like yours take a massive amount work? I'm brand new to running a blog however I do write in my journal every day. I'd like to start a blog so I can easily share my experience and thoughts online. Please let me know if you have any kind of ideas or tips for new aspiring bloggers. Appreciate it!"

My first tip would be this: Writing badly, but with originality and personality is better than spamming people with copy/paste spam boilerplate from a website that clearly demonstrates that you have no serious intention of starting a blog and are probably boring your journal to tears. While I have never actually seen a journal spontaneously combust in an act of suicide, yours may be in danger of doing just that.

If any of the above were true, you'd find that it's not a massive amount of work to begin a blog so that you can "share your thoughts and experiences online." The part that takes work is getting anyone to read them, or care.

Tone Deaf

As a hint, I have just in the Chinese class. Nothing can make you feel that the tone deaf and language less than than the Chinese faster. In addition to perhaps English, if you Chinese people are learning English as a Second Language. Sound is a flat, a bit high - "Mom, I'm going outside." Sound from low to high - "Ma did not hear I'm going outside now?" 3 audio-visual roller coaster (think Junior the sound through her ​​eyes, rolling after being told to go home 9:00, do not do any "sly" with her boyfriend) - "Ma!" If this analogy is not as you work, try to imagine the horror movie girl called uncertainty, her mother (almost certainly die in the top of the stairs) - "Ma" sound 4 the end of the outcome of a parameter, from high to low - "the horse get off my case."

Culinary Adventures of a Mandarin Chicken Hunter

It takes a special brand of courage to whip up a culinary masterpiece from a recipe that must first be translated into English from French. I take off my hat to the inimitable E McFinkerdink Fan, but I still think it may be intended to make shoes from chickens to sell to weary hunters who traipse through his dinner, when she is the subject of a sex change operation under the counter. I'm sure it could have been worse in Mandarin. I took lessons in Chinese, I'm sure I can now say: "Hello How is your cat I hear you already fly the plane in which the geometric lines are cut What color be your chips.?.». Or something. I am terribly BAD at it.

If You Can’t Beat ‘Em…

And you can not, of course - you are about it, the law - but again pulls a spammer of practice because you can not beat them, as well as you can jomiteul fun mocking them.
My friend (co-writers on this blog), Marian Allen, called today's Spomment Facebook(Facebook) have. It's your favorite spam is also a great place to share ideas.

And on this blog well - the new Blogger and "imported" to add a Google blessing. I, "Reject" the moment I am a little surprised, but obviously a geobogo was immediately broken. Or this blog reported "OHhhhhh, say that Google, a real man was. I get it. Such splog's not - the real people, that is, parody is true. Or satire. Or something. Oh, is that somehow - she is.” Let's get sploggers fixtures and blogging around the world to find out if you can, whirling dervishes, wormholes through their words have invented a way to force a couple creative writers. Reached and the blog constantly so some lewd joke in the game a few coins and get the strands to create some semblance suite-o gotta stretch it out.

If I’m right, Marian, drinks are on me at the Hugo Awards in San Antonio. Wait – did I say “drinks”? If I’m right, I’ll buy you an ice cube and three nanolitres of good Scotch.

Revival: Phonics from the Ashes

Hours on this blog has once again breathe life.

A friend of mine in the world or something. Gently humorous posts, as well as nature, technology help and so far all that could be interfering with each other in the world to understand the importance of seeking to please everyone could understand.

Once upon a time, it is translated to create a hidden agenda as part of a misunderstanding (or a royally inappropriate), and may have been shot with a subtle interpreter. On the other hand, machine translation opens up a world 20 years ago, ordinary people, may not have had management was able to make conversation.

I only care what they're scratching their heads that he or others have sudden urges to kick puppies really, really, maybe it's not the fault of others will understand.

And meanwhile, it's probably all of us in English (I am passionate about it that was being claimed by the Romanian people first raised the concept) but rather say that if the story may sound a very ethnocentric. To be sure, there are Chinese Hindi part of the dialect-speaking more and more people are - but the English, because probably the most common language in the world have learned, and most Asian languages ​​to learn than likely easier to claim that one, it's practical is optional. Honestly, what needs to learn the alphabet than 1000 characters, but the idea terrifies me time on the Internet for business and an "official language" I feel like we choose, and it is recommended that all learn from- I do not care at least one or two other its beauty and diversity of language is alive.

Devastating heart, respective tea - this is China's best?

Chinese tea ball is very small. They did not give a very satisfactory, if it is a big cup of tea thirsty. Sometimes, the scale is very important. ("Size does matter.")

Scrapers, and sploggers can kiss my Chinese tea ball.

中国茶球是非常小的。他们没有给一个非常满意,如果是一大杯茶渴。有时,规模很重要。

刮削器和sploggers可以吻我的中国茶球。

This post is a link bait, simple. Let us see how stupid scraper - Automatic - blog aggregator. This post, "Do They Have the Balls To Do It?" was ripped off from Elmot's post, "Do They Have the Balls To Do It?" by China Best Tea, which has nerve claimed in his blog at the bottom:

Ironically, it is. Maybe they did not by their search engine optimization services "master" in the http://wordpressseo.cn/, because the This is a good example of how not to do.

I will drink a good ol 'protest of Lipton tea, today, in the fight against rampant stupidity on the Internet.

The aim of this blog is defined rationalization at its finest

It's like Pig Latin, only one is not entirely understood. We just back to climb it again - on purpose tower of babel, stopped. Randomness of such words in a poem's beauty, is unity in diversity, mish-idiomatic expression of interest for the communication of ideas, not just language but cultural values and beliefs create a tool for communication.

Of course, all this nonsense is sublime - one of the scholars try to prove the existence of this blog for. Prices do not include rationalization, where the need should be: Laughter really is the best medicine.

The twists and turns of the path of the word

Do we really need more chaos in our lives? Education for technical writers to inform and clarify. Our job is to simplify the concept.

Creative writers, on the other hand, enjoy the pun. Creative writers, we can deal with a Web page exactly the same as if the treatment of the full canvas Salvador Dali clock. They insist that we can melt them fuzzy bubble gum machine, if we choose to do so.


Post here all the different machines. Please mangle your views.
