POPSProBlogger helps you build a better blog Bryan Person's Social Media Top 10 post drove me to this blog that's about how to get the most out of blogging and how to earn a living off of it. I find the ProBlogger creator, Darren Rowse, to be very intriguing and he does a great job at aggregating everyone's thoughts and experiences on how to blog more strategically. Thanks Bryan, Darren and ProBlogger contributors I am finding the ProBlogger blog to be not only helpful but also inspiring. This is a post-to-blog clip for: clipping the social web, http://www.clipper.typepad.com

POPSBoston is the "Bloggiest City" Between March and April of this year Boston residents generated more blog posts that discuss Boston than any other city in the U.S. has about their own city. Hmm, I wonder why? The article says that blogging typically is more prevalent in cities with highly political and well-educated residents. Does the fact that it is between March and April have any significance? Any thoughts?

POPSJohn Mackey, Cheif Idiot of Whole Foods What John Mackey did really blows my mind. I, along with Shel Holtz, thought of him as a sort of grocery store hero with his Whole Foods Blog. Maintaining a respectable blog, while posting bogus comments on Yahoo Finance message boards like "13 years from now Whole Foods will be a $800+ stock before splits," "while I'm not a 'Mackey groupie, I do admire what the man has accomplished" and my personal favorite "I like Mackey's haircut. I think he looks cute!" Confusing me even more is his response to his actions. He tries to play it off like what he did wasn't a big deal. It is a big deal, especially when, at the same time, you are publishing a "credible" blog to build truthful and authentic relationships with your current and potential customers, influencers and even investors!! I hope he faces serious repercussions for his actions... serves him right for acting so two-faced.
