This is The Greatest and Best Post In The World... (tribute)

You had a personality (and it didn't suck)
discovered something new that made us want
to try our luck

No "How To" post for love of Digg,
it's something new you said -
no millionth link to Problogger (which we've already read)

You made us think, or maybe smile
(sans web-A.D.D crap),
you made us STOP, or be inspired -
no sugar spinal tap

The title hooked, the promise kept
to rss we fed it,
and there was no link to Copyblogger (we've already read it)

How To Annoy The Entire Blogosphere

1. Ask a blogger for a favor , especially if you have no intention of reading their blog. Bonus points for starting your request like-a-so: "Hi, I don't read your blog, but would you mind..." 2. Use messaging on social networking sites ( StumbleUpon , MyBlogLog ) to ask people to visit your site. Bonus points for not visiting the sites of those you ask. 3. Sport the dollar signs in your eyes with pride. Whether it be links, traffic or money, we're all here to serve you . Demonstrate your dedication to self-enrichment with every comment, email and post. 4. Avoid writing comments that resemble actual conversation. Comments that begin and end with "Great post!", "I agree!", or "Ditto!" are best. Bonus points for fawning. 5. Copy another blogger's content. Bonus points for not linking to their original post. They love that. Gold star for submitting your copy to Digg. 6. Borrow heavily from another blogger's post...

The Commenting Cool Kids

The people listed below are but a small selection of the outstanding commenters here at FTM, each of whom has a blog well worth checking out. The comments section of a blog is where its true life is. While monologuing has its place (particularly when a would-be hero lies helpless in your clutches), dialog is the true key to success in the world of words that is the blogosphere. For challenging us with your unique perspective, raising the level of dialog, or just being plain sassy , I salute you: Ms. Q : An amusing muse Jonathan Philips : Reservoir of positivity Liz Strauss : The original SOB Avinash : Just cool Jesse Somer : Bane of the impetuous Kumiko : Certifiably enthusiastic Andy Beard : Remarkably sane Two Knives : Whose blades are not ceremonial.
