FIGHTING BLOGGER vs TECHNOLOGY

September 17, 2024 by David Gillaspie

The fighting blogger is more than stirring things up. It’s responding to problems, not making problems. When the problem is technology, the fight is on. What is the current technology problem? DNS propagation.

BONA FIDE BLOGGER WITH VERIFIABLE TRUE STORY

July 29, 2024 by David Gillaspie

The idea of a bona fide blogger doesn’t come from O Brother Where Art Thou. They say bona fide, just not blogger. Lately I’ve been working with the words verify and verifiable in terms of truth and bona fide fits right in. So does the word trust. You know the word trust?

THE NON-BLOG BLOG REPORT

June 21, 2024 by David Gillaspie

One of my non-blog blog readers had something to say, which is nice. They liked the travel posts from England better than the current production. We ended with a promise to get together and share half-lies, speculation, and innuendo. I like the plan because I like good readers with a lively opinion.

EVERYDAY BLOGGER ON EVERYDAY TOPICS

June 10, 2024 by David Gillaspie

An everyday blogger needs to stay sharp to what’s happening around them. If they don’t pay attention, they won’t be able to write a blog post. I’ve been cooking one up this morning, but I changed my routine. Instead of getting up, making tea, and sitting down to compose, I went to the gym. It […]

EVERYDAY BLOGGER, EVERYDAY WRITER OUT LOUD

March 29, 2024 by David Gillaspie

Hardly a day goes by that I don’t add another brick to the wall, another blog post into the black hole of the blogosphere. As an Everyday Blogger, with help from my sharp readers leaving comments that become blog posts, I focus on finding a better communication form than writing. But wherever it’s found, the […]

BLOG TRAFFIC: THE LINE STARTS OVER THERE

March 10, 2024 by David Gillaspie

Blog traffic is easy, so expect instant results. Start a blog, write a post, and stand back. The clouds part, the rain stops. You stand in the warming sunshine, not the blazing warm that melts asphalt in parking lot, but the cuddly warm of wearing strap t-shirts and cargo shorts. Let’s warm it up.

BLOGGER’S ROLE? IT DEPENDS ON . . . ?

March 5, 2024 by David Gillaspie

The blogger’s role depends on context. And money. If someone offered you $25,000 per post, and they give suggestions? Come on, you’d listen, I’d listen. Who wouldn’t listen? But who would start writing?

COMFORT BLOG LIKE COMFORT FOOD, BUT LESS FATTENING

February 19, 2024 by David Gillaspie

Comfort blog? You don’t know it, but you need one. Fortunately I write one. But why is it comforting? What’s more comforting than Jeff Bridges explaining the origins of life? By his measure, I’m a nine year old.
