Seven Great Reads for Saturday
By
Do you have some free time this weekend and want some thoughtful reads? Here are a few that I managed to miss this week and am glad I have some time this morning to enjoy them.
- Creativity in Action: From Boring to Magical – Inspiration Bit has a great discussion on the creativity of children and attributing sources in your work.
- Lorelle VanFossen asks “Is your blog a conversation blog or an answer blog” at the BlogHerald. Very interesting post as so many of us get caught up in the conversation aspect of blogging that sometimes you forget that not all posts (or blogs) really require a response.
- SEOmoz published the ultimate glossary for SEO terms and jargon this week. Bookmark it, use it!
- BlogHer is going on this weekend in Chicago and I wish I were there mixing it up with some of my blogging buds! Anyhow, eMoms at Home, Techmamas and Practical Blogging have some updates/live blogging posts from Blogher.
- DoshDosh shares some great articles and resources on Facebook Marketing. Facebook is now the 7th most visited web site with over 30 million visitors. How are you using Facebook to market your blog or business? I’m there – Facebook me!
Have a great weekend!

Thanks so much for the mention, Char.
I just checked out your About page – how do you manage to run so many blogs and be so good with all of them, plus finding time to read other blogs (I’m not even talking about your family and work here)?

inspirationbit – you are most welcome! I’m not sure how I do it, but I do. Actually, the more I manage multiple blogs, the easier it gets – not all of them require daily attention and I have gotten very good at future posting and writing off the top of my head.
Have a great weekend.

I thought you probably had received it, Char – at least I realized you should have! But I didn’t see any mention of it – probably I just overlooked it in my search … or maybe it was on a different blog. Anyway, congratulations.

Thanks, Char. I don’t know why I missed it when I looked today, but I know why I missed it when it was posted. I was reformatting my computer, upgrading programs,and restoring backups that week … and didn’t get online much.
I too am pleased to be in the company of the Rockin’ Bloggers Girls.
