My blog is up! Free New Hampshire

[Friday]

Me three.  I was going to put her blog on that list, but it didn't seem like she was blogging anymore 

Friday was an excellent blogger, an excellent NHLP organizer, an excellent NHLF organizer, an excellent FSP board member, an excellent MVP organizer, and a score other excellent things as well.

At some point, you gotta scale back a bit, ya know?

Plus she has a full time job since she needs to eat and sleep too! I now know very well what happens to people when they forget to do either...   

Yeah, no kidding.  That's exactly what I looked like two days after Liberty Forum.  As luck would have it, my building caught on fire that day, so I had to crawl out of bed, leap into my sweats, and hold the door to the building open for the Nashua Fire Department *and* the Nashua PD.  I must have looked quite a sight with my uncombed hair and dried puke on my face.   

Maybe I should start blogging again;  my so-called life has gotta be good for laughs if nothing else.

Must be my feng shui.  I'm sure if I hang a mirror, re-angle my bed, and purchase a ceramic cat holding a pot of gold, my luck will change.

At the request of a friend, I've started my own blog.  I've only got two posts up and the page sucks right now, so I don't want to post the url yet. 

My question - What all do I need to know to get started in blogging?  Of course it will be political in nature, and I'll probably put up links to books I like, political music etc...   And I guess it's possible to get some kind of revenue from doing this (I wouldn't assume very much).

So what advice can everyone offer me?

My I suggest a banner ad to link to NHFREE.com, KeeneFreePress.com, FreeTalkLive.com, FreeStateProject.org etc

Of course!  Once I figure out how to do stuff like that.  I seriously know very little about computers...

If you really want to know about political blogging, you should ask an expert. Someone who's been doing it a while. Like your downstairs neighbor.

My main advice would be to use Wordpress instead of Blogger/Blogspot. It's far better, without the notorious Google downtime. If you're just getting started, now is the time to switch.

Two other points:

1) anyone pro-freedom in NH who wants their blog syndicated onto FreeStateBlogs, just let me know & I'll plug in your feed

2) Jim Ostrowski is a Free-Stater and the founder of blog.freeny.org
He's looking for a Free-Stater to blog stuff on FreeNY.
It would be awesome to get one of "us" blogging there!

Err, I wouldn't know that since he didn't give us a URL.
