If you don't do that, no-one will find out you are blogging, except by accident.Croydonianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14670533609622717223noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22202011.post-1158505317616528752006-09-17T16:01:00.000+01:002006-09-17T16:01:00.000+01:00I've long said that Miliband's blog is nothing oth...I've long said that Miliband's blog is nothing other than a ministerial post and he refuses to listen or respond to his readers. Even top social media experts have removed him from their feeds, they find him too boring. So very true words from Guido. I like Margot Wallstrom's blog because she will tell you about her personal life too, the friend's wedding she attended, her aged mother's problems, as well as the European issues she is dealing with.<BR/><BR/>I did think the guide could have included examples of top stories broken via blogging that have been picked up by the mainstream media. Certainly it is a great read.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22202011.post-1158496328096814072006-09-17T13:32:00.000+01:002006-09-17T13:32:00.000+01:00A fair point pedantically made.

Therefore I clearly hate it. <BR/><BR/>In seriousness I thought the inclusion of Milliband's comment with Guido's was masterful. I think Kevin Macguire is up his own arse. Overall it was great, the only thing I wonder is whether all 400 blogs will be running still in two months time.<BR/><BR/>For some reason I can't stop thinking of the Goonies right now though.dizzyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04250325010662356883noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22202011.post-1158495802996951822006-09-17T13:23:00.000+01:002006-09-17T13:23:00.000+01:00Dizzy, that is a summary, not a review.
