How To Tell If You Aspire To Reach “Blogebrity” Status:
A Checklist
-
You scan PopCandy and Entertainment Weekly web sites daily, hoping to find third-generation videos of Amy Winehouse smokin’ on a crack pipe that you can embed into your blog.
-
When asked for your social security number, you absent-mindedly provide your blogspot.com password.
-
You use words like “embed” and “link” to arouse your significant other during lovemaking.
-
You think of readers as “fans.”
-
Choosing between private, mundane social activity and blogging is too hard, so you do both.
-
More than twice a day, you’ve thought to yourself: ” What can I blog about now that people will like?”.
-
Your blood pressure soars when Sitemeter reports a reduction in visits.
-
You no longer debate internally the narcissistic qualities associated with blogging.
-
At least once, you’ve wondered about the possibility of getting a press pass based on your blogger “credentials.”
-
Your blog’s technorati ranking number is tattooed on your forearm.
