    Evolution of a Blog Post

    By Michele Martin | November 25, 2007

    I find that for a lot of new bloggers the process of developing a post, commenting, etc. can be a little mysterious. I thought it might be helpful to show how I created a recent post because it also demonstrates how commenting occurs and how you develop deeper knowledge and a broader network based on that process.In the video above, I trace how I went from reading a blog post in my feed reader to writing a post on one of my blogs, The Bamboo Project and the follow-up “conversations” that occurred in comments on mine and other blogs. It also demonstrates how I use Google Alerts to keep track of online references to me and my blog.

    The video is not quite as clear as I would have liked. I used Camtasia to create it and for some reason in the conversion process for the web, the screencapture isn’t quite what I wanted. I’ll have to play around with this a little more to see what the problem is.

      This is not only a great example of the evolution of a blog post, but really demonstrates the best of how blogs become the vehicle for conversation.
