A failing blogger
Reading Jakob Nielsen’s top ten mistakes by webloggers, it’s clear I am a failure as a blogger, on most counts.
- I’m too lazy to write a biographical page (mistake #1). My readers (both of them!) know me already.
- Nor have I a photo (#2). Ditto.
- I try to invent slightly curious titles, with a whiff of pun about them (#3).
- My blog motions are quite irregular (#7).
- And I spread them thinly (#8).
- Doh! How could I keep forgetting that I’m writing for my future boss(es) (#9).
I do OK on the other points, so I get 4 out of 10.
What is my blog about? I have some whimsical notion of it as a multi-faceted portrait of myself that reveals itself (and thus me) piece by piece.
Sorry to disappoint you, Jakob.
