Everybody reads him.  Everybody loves him.  Every blogger envies where he is at.

Even those who do not blog heard of him.  Darren Rowse The ProBlogger is every Bloggers' envy.  He founded two of the most popular blogs today - ProBlogger and Digital Photography School.

He is soft spoken with no airs about him. He works tirelessly on his blogs and delivers HUGE values in every single blog post he writes.

Whats more he has been blogging fulltime for years now.

Cheers!

Ever since Copyblogger coined the Third Tribe, thousands of bloggers starting identifying with it.

It's cool to be a part of this Tribe.

Every blogger big or small wants to differentiate himself/herself from the sleazy internet salesmen and copywriters who make to make a quick buck.

So in simple terms what makes a blogger a third tribe? Here's a quick checklist!

• You contribute value to the Tribe/community (It's way sexier to be part of a tribe than a community!)
• Your every second post is not a review, promotion or advisement of your or third parties services or products.
• You either promote your own services or products (like Copyblogger does) or none at all (what most bloggers do!)
• You realise blogging is writing and copywriting (for bloggers promoting their services or products).

Yes to all > You are definitely a Third Tribe.
Yes to 3, 2, or 1 > Welcome to the rest of us! Blogging community!
No to all > Shame on you!  Start another blog!


Cheers!

From the how-to-blog blogs to Gen-Y blogs, internet marketing blogs to make-money-online blogs one topic every blogger loves to debate on is the WordPress v Blogger.

The debate on choosing the best platform to blog on is one valid but seriously overdone.

Blogger is free and the advice is for beginners to choose this. WordPress though free, has to be hosted and so is NOT free and the advice is for bloggers who are serious about their blogs and where they want to take.

We love talking and a great deal at that about the blogging platforms we use. I personally use both.

And I don't want to debate on the pros and cons of either.

The debate has to stop.

We have more pressing and important stuffs to talk about.

Remember Blogger or WordPress is simply a tool. A tool for you to utilize for you own needs. If it meets your requirements and get things done for you, it's a good tool.

The truth is most bloggers simply love blogging.  But, ironically, hate writing.  However, since it comes with the territory, so to speak, writing is blogging for most of us. So should it be. 

If only our English teachers knew if all of us would be writing, how so joyous they would be! Right?

I mean, in my secondary school teachers would often ask us, students, to contribute to the school magazine. And, how many of us do you think actually wrote for the magazine.  NIL.  No one.

Nobody wanted to be the  

Who in the world thought so many would be writing someday

This is the first ever post on Stuffs Bloggers Like - about blogging, bloggers and blogs in a lighter vein.

Blame it on Blogger, or WordPress.org for that matter, starting a blog is a breeze. So much so that most bloggers own at least a couple of blogs to their names. (Including yours truly).

And we love it. This is stuff bloggers like!

We experiment about topics we might be interested in and then after a couple of months, there they are left unattended, uncared for like the proverbial orphan.

At least blogs don't have to be literally sheltered and fed!

Another reason being, they are FREE! For God's sake! Show me a blogger who doesn't like free stuff I'll show you a white crow! We're so used to getting stuffs for free one might even predict the blogosphere demanding our Houses of Parliament for free housing and free Internet by 2035, or something!

Side note: Do we still call the blogging community a blogosphere! It's not a sphere by any stretch of imagination. It's more like pyramid.  There are like 58 (who's counting, anyway!) A-list bloggers on top and a zillion Z-list bloggers at the bottom. Of course, the X-list bloggers are spam. Be f**king weary!)

So...where was I! Yes, behold, the millions of bloggers writing about how to start a blog and making the process sound like the War Plan, when Blogger.com claims you can start one in a minute!

You thinking about a blog you might want to start? Do it already and blogroll this one. I promise you will LOVE it!

Cheers!
