Friday Finds — 05/18/2007

May 18th, 2007 - - Filled in: Friday's Finds

Yesterday I was over at The Wrong Advices reading Dan’s daily dose of d-d…uh…dlogging (sorry, it’s early and I haven’t had my coffee yet). He discusses how being a female on MyBlogLog has its advantages. I couldn’t agree with more with Dan’s assessment. So, I’m going to use his post to segue into this week’s Friday’s Finds. A fitting way to make up for missing last week.

  • Danielle (that’s Ms. Danielle to you) shares with us her first golf experience with coach and fellow blogger, Gary Lee. Her performance reminded me of the time I shot a 72. Its only a matter of time before we meet on the course…and she whoops my butt.

  • Jane has “winner” written all over her. Not only did her blog, CareerRamblings, win the first ever Bloggers Tournament but the popularity of her personal blog has skyrocketed in only a month. Consider buying a review from Jane today.

  • In a related post, Ilker Yoldas over at The Thinking Blog discusses The Cute Factor and how it can benefit as a marketing tool. She would know. She has over 3,500 members in her MBL Community. (BTW, Ilker is a “he”. DOH!)

  • In keeping with the “Chicks That Can Beat Me At Golf” motif, Patricia Hannigan, author of Golf Girl’s Diary, promotes golf as an effective tool for women in business. Do you offer lessons, Patricia? If you haven’t read by now, I need some.

Please don’t forget to visit a few of my other fav femme fatales…the good kind. :) Kelly Cho, Wendy Piersall, and Kumiko Suzuki. Have a great Friday!

I should do a follow-up on the advantages of being a guy on MyBlogLog. I’ve been getting approached by alot of teenage girls who think its like MySpace. It’s flattering but a little creepy. :)

I think Ilker is a guy. :)

(I know this might be posted twice - I fear the first time it went into your spam folder because I included a link to the number 4 Google result for “Ilker”.)

Hey,
I observe that you follow, rel=’nofollow’ in your template for the comments in your blog.
An incentive for a few people to comment on others blog is that their own blog gets traced out by the search engines. But rel=’nofollow’ restricts that. Sometimes people get discouraged just because of it to comment.
I don’t know what tis right or wrong, it was just a passing thought.
Regards.
