Through the Tollbooth -- Zu Vincent

I hope you aren’t all getting tired of hearing about the Kidlit ’08 blogging conference because here’s another post.

Zu Vincent of Through the Tollbooth talked about three important components of a group blog:

1) Passion for writing;
2) Participation using our own voice and style; and,
3) Presence: Shared presence on-line turns a monologue into a conversation.

She says that “You energize one another in a group blog.” And, “Putting your presence out there . . . you will get things happening.”

You want to vary your tone and content of the group blog so that you don’t get the “Blog Blahs”.

Listen to her for a minute.
