Links and Shout Outs

links-and-shout-outs2How To Make the Perfect Cookie fast and furious 4 dvd — A High and Noble Calling.  Hat tip to ohAmanda and her snazzy new design compliments of DCR Design.  She shared this link on Twitter and I had to click over.

Remind Me Again Why We Buy Toys — Blonde Mom Blog. I had to laugh at this.  I posted something similar a few weeks ago.  It never ceases to amaze me how long a child can entertain him/herself with a cardboard box.

As Marketing Shifts Back to the Everyman — Chris Brogan.  You know how sometimes you want to write a post but you fear you can’t really do the subject justice?  And then you come across an article that says it WAY better than you ever could yourself?  So yeah.  That’s pretty much what Brogan did right here.

Follow Friday; Too Much of a Good Thing — TwiTip.  I discovered this article when I went to write my own article to submit to TwiTip on the misuse of #followfriday.  After reading this, I decided there was no need for me to write my own.

If you are not a Twitter user, feel free to skip over this link.  If you ARE a Twitter user, this is a MUST READ.  My beef with the whole concept is explained succinctly under the bullet points “Blind Recommendations” and “Packed Recommendations”.  Follow Friday will only be effective if people are suggested in a thoughtful and informative way.

*Steps delicately off of soapbox.*

How to Avoid Losing Your Readers Along the Long Copy Path — copyblogger.  This is well worth the read if you’re a long-winded blogger like I am.  It’s geared to a more business-minded blogger, but the points can apply to a hobby blogger just as well.

    Thanks so much for the link love! They are both still playing with that box and yesterday they actually colored it with crayons to turn it into a rocket ship. Just when I start to get frustrated that they watch too much TV they go and surprise me. ;)
