Blog Tagline: Blogging at the crossroads of work, life, entrepreneurship and play…with a twist!
What makes the blog worth visiting?
Where else can you discover how to make exercise more fun than sex, spend 12 days watching Cool Whip NOT melt, learn box-bashing marketing strategies, billion-dollar (okay $9) blogging tips and entrepreneurial power plays and see seriously doctored pictures of Jonathan lifting weights with a cast on one leg. It’s the ultimate resource for a life worth living and a business worth building…or at least laughing a lot about!
Blogging advice or a short bloggy quote:
1. Be real – Your own authentic voice is good enough, go with it, develop it, deepen it, revel in it, but…
2. Be valuable – Blog because you’ve got something to say, not because you’re “supposed” to have something to say. If that means you can only add value once a week instead of once a day, so be it. I’d rather read something that flips a switch or engage in a wonderful conversation once a week than suffer empty drivel once a day.
3. Be light – Don’t take yourself too seriously. Blogging’s natural state is fun, it’s us expectation-driven humans that make it otherwise.

Blogging advice or a short bloggy quote:
“The Blogging Curse”!!
Been spending too much time on the laptop…
Internet,
Wordpress,
SEO,
Digg it man!!
Out of control,
out of mind,
I’m hooked…
piddly dial-up connection!
Instead of writing and posting,
I’ve been obsessed!
The right theme,
the perfect widget,
the ideal plugin!
De.licio.us!
Feedburner
and RSS feeds,
not to mention comments.
Engrossed in stats…
How can I attract more readers?
More bots…
than real people,
embarrassing!
Optimisation,
tagging
and stylesheets,
gibberish.
In the meantime…
over 1000 broken links,
posts without excerpts
and tabs playing up in Firefox!
Blogging…
what is it all about really?
The writing,
the playing…
or both?
What purpose does it serve,
whether I have two sidebars
or just one?
Customise that header!!
Google it!
Add that feed!
Check out the forums!
Time…
Full-time…
Where do they find it?
These folks.
As for me,
got to cut back,
find that balance
and get back to blogging!

Conflict Zen is about simplifying your life and transforming your most important personal and professional relationships. It’s the only site on the web meshing the know-how of a professional mediator, master teacher and coach, and conflict resolution author.
Blogging advice or a short bloggy quote:
There’s an old story about a professor whose teacup is filled to overflowing. Like this teacup, the Zen master tells him, “you are full of your own opinions and speculations. How can I show you Zen unless you first empty your cup?” Conflict is like the professor’s teacup — full of judgments, diagnoses, opinions, attributions. Nothing can get in until you know how to empty your conflict teacup.

Blog Title CityStreams
Blog URL: http://citystreams.wordpress.com
Blog Tagline: n/a
What makes the blog worth visiting?
I’m a newbie mom, a high school Science teacher and the wife of a cop. Every day’s an adventure!
Blogging advice or a short bloggy quote:
I love blogging because it’s cheaper than therapy, easier than scrap-booking and helps me remember the millions of moments, that I would surely forget if I didn’t write them down. My journey has taken me to places I never expected to go. After two years of medical school, I decided that I didn’t want to be a doctor. Instead, I took a job as a high school Science teacher. Then Hubster and I decided to test our genetic luck, and we had a baby. While I was still in the hospital, recovering from the C-section, he got the call for his job as a police officer. Life’s never dull around here.
