Blogwild! review

Last night I finished reading BlogWild! How everyone can go blogging by Andy Wibbels.  This book wasn't bad if you know absolutely nothing about blogs or blogging.  I had read some good reviews of the book, but found it very simplistic.

I found a little bit of information that would help someone with their existing blog (about enough info to fit in an article) but a lot of stuff that told you how to set up a Typepad blog from scratch. As someone in the IT industry, it wasn't really meant for me.  If I wanted my grandmother to be able to blog, I would recommend this book to her.  Actually, in the last place I worked, I know some very technical people who didn't know what a blog was or have ever read one. Too much reliance on Typepad for my liking. Andy Wibbels has two blogs which are very successful.  I found them very entertaining and have added the RSS feeds to my aggregator.  The blogs are at: http://andywibbels.com/http://www.andymatic.com/ Still, it got me motivated to write a bit more and to think about more information to include on this site.  If nothing else, that was a benefit to reading it.
