Content

They say that it's not about how many blogs you comment on or how dope your layout is.  They say it doesn't matter how you monitor your stats or how risque your flickr badge is.  They say no one really gives a damn about your masthead.

They say you just need to have good content.

Kinda like a Field of Dreams for the internet..."Write it, and they will come out of the digital cornstalks of the blogosphere."

My problem is that my standards are too high.

Example 1:  I could write about the guy that showed up in gorilla suit and a pink tutu at work today and proceeded to sing a dirty song about his "banana" to a co-worker.  Except I didn't get any pictures, so blah.

Example 2:  I could elaborate on how Google's April Fools joke about their pairing with Sir Richard Branson to lead a team to colonize Mars would actually be the most bad ass move ever, but that might just come across as more Google worship.

Example 3:  I could post pictures from when I had my back waxed pre-honeymoon, but ultimately that's content I don't need to come back and bite me in the left butt cheek 20 years from now when I'm attempting to lecture my children on the importance of internet privacy.

Blogging.  Thou art a cruel mistress.
