Technorati Launch Twittorati
Uncategorized Once a major player in the blogosphere, Technorati has been out of the limelight a little since Twitter crashed the party.

Their tagline is ‘Where the blogosphere and twittersphere meet’ but I have to agree with Jordan McCollum from Marketing Pilgram in that they don’t actually meet per say, they just happen to be ...

Uncategorized In “Possessives or Just Possessed“, I discussed the trouble I have with possessives and plurals and asked for reader input. Be sure to read that if you missed it.

It focused on five of the “beta” features of Gmail that can be very helpful to those of us who run their own sites. However, today Google announced that they were pulling the “beta” label off of Gmail and, honor of that occasion, I’m going to take another look at how Gmail can help bloggers and other power users, this time by listing 5 ...
Continue readingPossessive or Just Possessed?
Uncategorized I have to admit that possessive nouns, plurals and punctuation give me a lot of trouble. I often look at things many times before I decide if it’s correct or not.
