This is a MUST read for any blogger who desires to review products — Are Mommybloggers Misunderstanding the Marketing Game?
And THIS is a must read if you use Twitter. I get SO sick of all the RT (that’s a retweet for you all still living in Twitter ignorance) posts but yet I still use them and still appreciate them when others retweet MINE. But they really are getting old. There is a BETTER way to retweet, says Darren at ProBlogger. I totally love this. I’m doing it from now on.
Okay, enough with the blogging links. Here are a few good reads — go grab a fresh cuppa coffe and hunker down for a good chuckle.

And now I’m off for a day of shopping with a dear friend! Enjoy your weekend!
I agree. A lot of re-tweeting is going on right now. It’s getting kind of annoying. I know people are trying to promote their contests and get entries, but seriously.
Some things need to be re-tweeted.
I’m getting tired of the spammers with the same tweets, every 10 minutes too.
Oh, I’m SO going to read those links! Thanks for the resources!

Have a great weekend!
AWESOME link on the RT. I RT a LOT and have used “via” only when sharing links I gleaned from a blog, never another’s tweet. LOVE THIS. Thanks for sharing, Jo-Lynne, you Twitter Maven, you!
Excellent weekly re-cap. Thanks so much. I missed the BlogHer article but the topic is high on my radar as I was interviewed and had a v. brief mention in the Forrester Report they were discussing. Really great advice in the BlogHer article and loved the Retweet ideas. And isn’t Steph’s birth story just amazing? I had been reading her blog daily waiting for news on her new arrival. What a birth story. Loved it.
I was a RT abuser and didn’t even know it. Thanks for pointing out this great article.
Something weird is going on with my website. Can you advise? Thanks. (Photobucket)
I like that RT tip cuz usually we kind of all follow the same circles anyway – so it’d be nice to see someone put their own views on the RT as well.
The problogger, always thinkin…
Awesome blog makeover, girl
You’re my new best friend. I have wondered what RT meant! Now it makes total sense, and I agree it is annoying. Love the via option.
Thanks so much for linking to my first post about my new baby. You sent over quite a bit of traffic and I really appreciate that. Muchas Gracias!
