Eric,
I would not advise anyone to start a blog who didn’t have a genuine case of logorrhea. It’s like, gee, wouldn’t it be nice to have a daily column in the newspaper. Yeah, for about a week, but then…..? It’s like having to cook dinner EVERY night. I have logorrhea, but it’s a form of the disease called “responsive logorrhea”. Responsive logorhheaics (!??) are silent until asked a question, but once asked, can always be counted on to write an answer so long the questioner won’t possibly read it. Like, for instance, this message …. Nick From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of ERIC P. CHARLES Sent: Tuesday, May 17, 2011 4:56 PM To: friam Subject: [FRIAM] blog recomendations? Hey all, Against all my wife's better judgment, I am considering starting a blog. Enough of my professional colleagues have them, and enough interesting stuff seems to be happening on them, that it seems a good idea. I was hoping for some collective wisdom about the pros and cons of different blogging platforms. I do, in theory, have the ability to host it myself, or to use Penn State's in-house system, but my initial inclination is to go with an established entity that makes it easy to do things like track other blogs and track user stats. I'm not even sure what other factors I should care about. Again, any collective wisdom would be appreciated! Thanks, Eric
