Humanity is a failed experiment, but I think I’m God and I’d like to start over. I don’t want to die, I just want everyone else to. I certainly would not be lonely. It would be exciting never having to listen to another person again but just my own self droning on and on. That’s why I write a blog. And I read it, too.

You won‘t be exiled to permanent unemployment just because there’s a picture somewhere of you holding a red Solo cup and looking underage. But, your Google results tell a story: Have you been in the news? Authored articles or blog posts? What types of topics do you frequently tweet about?

At Shutterstock, we’ve been offering tutorials to customers and contributors on our blog for many years.

If you take a print magazine with a million person circulation, and a blog with a devout readership of 1 million, for the purpose of selling anything that can be sold online, the blog is infinitely more powerful, because it’s only a click away.

Once I found this possibility to use Twitter and Facebook and my blog to connect to my readers, I’m going to use it, to connect to them and to share thoughts that I cannot use in the book.
63
And increasingly, as people live online, we are used to making really snap judgments about somebody’s character based on their Facebook page or the way their blog feels or look.
64
I started my blog in 2002. That was pre-MySpace, pre-Facebook. That was back before newspapers realized they were going out of business. That was back when no one gave any credence to Internet writers.
65
My job, originally, was to write blog posts for their ‘HubSpot‘ blog. They have a business model built on content. Then I was writing e-books for them, and after I came back from L.A., they had this new plan to launch a podcast.
66
I will not stop my blog.

I was the first model to get a blog and talk about anything in modeling.

When I finally accepted a full time job, I saw that as giving up on my artistic dreams. But three years later, I wrote a blog post based on life in the corporate world, which went viral and became the basis for my first book, which allowed me to quit my job to be creatively independent once again.

In many ways, our marriage is anything but traditional. When I started my blog in 2006, Ladd was the only one that really understood what I was doing, probably before I even understood what I was doing. He wasn’t tech-savvy, but he just got it and was totally on board with it.

I was a bit of an accident really – I certainly didn’t set out to write a cookbook or three. I didn’t have a plan. I was unemployed, writing a blog about local politics and a few recipes, and it was more successful than I could ever have imagined it to be.
82
It’s long been my dream to have myself declared incompetent so I could just practice all day, and blog, and not have to take care of any normal life things.
83

On paper, I am a Tesla guy. I’ve got money, I’m a nerd, and for years I professionally ran a blog advocating for technology that helps decrease our impact on the environment. I love what Tesla does.

Sometimes, reading a blog, which I do infrequently, I see that generations of Americans have been wilfully crippled, and can no longer spell or write a sentence.

Too often black people are confronted with an assumption that there is only one way to be black, and that anyone who doesn’t conform is a ‘coconut‘ an ‘Uncle Tom’ (or as Ms Dent Coad stated in her blog, a ‘token‘). It implies we are too stupid to understand what it means to be conservative, or are race traitors.

Some people have a blog that’s, like, ‘Today I brushed my teeth.’ Well, who cares? Who cares that you brushed your teeth. Okay – you brushed your teeth! That’s so massively egocentric, it’s just ridiculous.

105
When I did stand-up at U.C.B., and I had a blog for a couple of years that started my writing career, ‘Totally Confident and Completely Insecure,’ it was the same kind of self-deprecating humor and stories about being out in L.A. and being treated like a loser at a hair salon because you are not famous.

I got my first trademark in 2005: ‘EcoGeek.’ It was the name of a blog that had become my job. I had a dream of turning it into a big business. After spending a huge amount of time and money attempting to ‘protect‘ that trademark, I let it lapse. It was still 2005.

Stock photos are used everywhere on the Net. Chances are, the website you are on right now uses stock photos somewhere – maybe as the featured image of the blog post. This also means that there will always be a large market for stock photographers.
