This is a great, non-partisan article for any blogger to ponder - "Blog Alert" by Dan Zak, originally published in the Washington Post.
Lots of great tips.
I would only add this - Could we please put a moratorium on gratuitous vulgarity, and words like 'lockstep', 'intellectually dishonest', 'wingnut', 'Neocon', etc. which are quickly becoming blogging clichés?
I'm sure you can think of others.
Yes, 'lemmings' too. Even I'm getting tired of that.

BTW - New post coming soon related to the Ontario education debate. Various permissions had to be obtained first.
And can anyone please explain the seeming inconsistency here? (H/T National Newswatch). Greg Weston has a theory - Voters zoning out.
Maybe I can replace 'lemmings' with Zombies.

Maratorium....a moratorium on female horses.
Clear to me.
How about a moratorium on worrying about spelling?
Platty — Sorry, I couldn't resist.
Joanne — Hey, here's another one for your list: "specious"... Oh, and my wife would appreciate banishment of the word "douchebag." She finds that offensive for some reason.
Red, I agree with your wife. Does she read your blog?
moonbat
Chamberlain
sheeple
citoyen
shrieking
dhimmi
Satan
Hitler
Pol Pot
McMillan
Pickton
Thanks in advance.
Joanne — Unfortunately, yes. (Have to mind my Ps and Qs these days!)
Does she keep you on a short leash too, Red? ;)

MoraToryum That's pretty clever.
