Free Blogs and Blogging

I think that a lot of people who are interested in keeping a blog or two may not realize how easy it is to get started. It doesn't have to cost a dime and there are no real rules.

There are guidelines and expected things for bloggers to do, but all that really matters is that a blogger expresses herself and communicates effectively. Whether that's done through humor, pathos, dramatic prose or photos, it's all up to the blogger.

I've been reviewing various free blog sites and plan to continue that for the next week or two. I know from experience that when choosing a free blog it's a good idea to know what features you will need and which sites have those features.

When thinking about starting a blog, sometimes it's best not to think too much. The best blogs are the ones that are personal expressions of a point of view. Those are the ones that generate cult followings and legions of fans. They can even lead to book and movie deals. Movie deals? Yes. It actually does happen.
