Thank you so much for sharing your questions, everyone! It gives me an exact idea of what topics I should focus on.

Feel free to add any more here as you think of them! I’ll check these comments regularly.

What's the deal on Carnivals or Festivals and the like? How to enter? How they work? What's the point? Etc. Em.s last blog post..Links!

I second every single one of Julie’s questions.
Also, if you are just blogging to write and to build a memory for/of your family, how do you retain your own voice in the din of blogs out there? How do you choose your audience instead of being swept into a trend by the sheer force of the BLOGOSPHERE. It’s still a nascent form of expression, so as it evolves I’d like to use it to express myself rather than to write for some imaginary host of critics, fans, bots or future readers.

I guess that’s more of a writing technique question, but I’d love to hear what you think.

1. How can I get a custom looking header w/o having to pay a designer
2. How do you put custom frames around your pictures (like in this post) and how do you give credits to the photos you use…say from flickr
3. How do you decide which rss feed to use on your blog
4. Why would you (or not) use technorati or de.lic.ious on your blog
5. What are some of the new widgets that are available and helpful

Looks like I’ll be checking you out Blissfully Domestic!

yes, so many questions…. as a newbie blogger, i’m trying to figure out what exactly it is that i want to accomplish- i have a lot of thoughts, but having a hard time making a plan… i guess my question would be if you had three things that each blog should have- what would they be?

thanks again for all the great resources and encouragement!
God Bless you and congrats!

How about time management for blogging? How you prioritize your time with responding to comments, visiting other blogs, and writing your own content. I like blogging, but if I'm not careful it can take up way too much time and I want to strive for balance. Rachels last blog post..The Compost Results
