Merlin Mann on how to blog

by Jeremiah Andrick on December 13, 2008

I have really grown to love the CBC radio program Spark.  If your anything like me the CBC is not one of the presets on my radio dial. But I highly suggest you add it to your podcast list. Spark, hosted by Nora Young, is a radio program about technology and culture.

One of my favorite contributors to the show is Merlin Mann, who you may know from the blog 43folders. Based partly on his 43Folders.com post What Makes for a Good Blog?, Merlin has been sharing about voice, obsession, and the importance of trying.  I highly recommend that you listen to this series of contributions to Spark.

The series had 6 themes:

  • What Makes a Good Blog?
  • Consider Your Audience
  • Manage Expectations
  • Get Better
  • Attract an Audience
  • Q & A

I highly recommend that you check out the blog post with a full description on the contributions and download the MP3 files.
