The road less travelled

I'm evaluating a multi-media course on blogging from the folks at Simpleology. For a while, they're letting you snag it for free if you post about it on your blog.

It covers:

  • The best blogging techniques.
  • How to get traffic to your blog.
  • How to turn your blog into money.

I'll let you know what I think once I've had a chance to check it out. Meanwhile, go grab yours while it's still free.

Sounds like a pretty good deal to me. I'm in the process of trying to make my blog more professional so this is right up my street.

Well the day has finally arrived. Mcain/Obama, who do you think will win this election.

Personally, I was touting Obama as the next American president months ago. I just felt that America was ready for a change. Since then the global economic collapse makes me even more confident that he will win.

I've heard some whacky reasons for voting preferences but I heard today that since Sarah Palin is a 'bird shooter' a lot of the hunting community will vote for her. WOW.

Anyway, I think that the American Election far overshadows anything I can write today...so...out of respect for The American people....for today I will keep my mouth shut, and stand back and watch as Barack Obama gets ready to settle himself into the White House.

Don't be complacent...YOUR vote DOES make a difference.

I was never interested much in blogging right, but now that we all do it, and so much, it´s so worth knowing better how to do it. Will take your advise and see if can learn a bit. Thanx for the tip. Trust you had a wonderful Monday. Tuesday, today, will be such an interesting one, won´t it? Let´s see how it goes.

Yes Dougal, I voted about a month ago via mail to my hometown. Trust it got there ok. Anyway, hope my guy wins, but regardless, the winner will still be mine to have. Over here in Spain, am very American still, and keep up the spirit no matter. Generally there is much USA bashing (which I don´t like at all), but I plan on making myself like the winner, back him, and hope for the best. For sure he´ll be a better prez than the one we now have in Spain. My idea is that the best man will win. We´ll see.

ps hope all is going well for you...

It's great to see you back in action Dougal! Looks like all those prayers were answered! I'll still be praying for you though. Everyone needs it even when times are good. Good luck getting ready for your "Super-Challenge"!

Hi Dougal! Yep! the big day is here. A new Prez for the U.S! Very exciting.

well now we know.
It was obvious that obama was going to take away the prize of leading the USA.
He is fresher than Mccain and younger of course.

Sad for Mccain though. I liked him since i saw a couple of interviews on late night shows. Even though i was slightly on mccains side i congratulate obama on his win.

(lol, not much of a fitness post or comments today)
