Blog Stuff | | New Blog Words Link Slut is the blogger who provides a link to anyone who
asks (in the hope of a reciprocal link). I introduce a new term,
Link Bitch as the blogger who links to everyone, except you. Here are some more:
DOS Blog -- The blog that mostly consists of text. Freebie blogs
hosted on BlogSpot (that doesn't allow image hosting) are examples.
Mainframe Blog -- The blog that mostly contains content in uppercase (like
those mainframes). From what I have seen, all corporate blogs end up this way
with product codes, and full of insider acronyms.
Blog Royalty -- The handful of bloggers who get all the publicity.
List Your Blog in Blog Portal
I have made it easier for Indian bloggers to ping the Blog Portal. The Ping
form now will now remember the URL, so you have one less thing to type.
If you have a blog related to India (blogged from India, or blog about
India), here's a pitch on why you should get listed in Kamat Blog Portal
- No registration, no password, no need to provide your email, no
botheration -- you won't hear from me.
- If you know anything about PageRank™, you know that when a highly relevant page links to
you, your rank goes up. The rank for Kamat's Potpourri is pretty high, so it
is a very easy way to accumulate some rankings.
- The Blog Portal is currently the top match for the keywords India Blog or
Indian Blogs on Google and elsewhere.
Classifying Blogs
When a customer wanted to use blogs in their enterprise, one feature they
wanted me to add was Classification of Blogs into categories. I believe Movable
Type has it. I have added that
feature now to blogs at Kamat.com. Here's a list of my blogs on
blogging, and
here's the category of Photo-Poem-Duet
Blogs. A blog built with my software can belong to multiple categories, and
a category can have blogs from different bloggers.

This is how I surf the web. Turns out
creating your own start page beats all portals, back-flipping,
personalized corporate pages, and book-marking tools. |
