Blogging For Dummies... And What To Do With It!
As previously blogged here, Tina and I have posted some 'reviews' in the eBay Reviews and Guides Section off and on for several months.
So this week I've been reading books on the history of blogging and what additional purposes it can be used for as both Tina and I expand the scope of our operations on this, my 10th Anniversary on the Web!
The book 'Blogging For Dummies' was of course one that I wanted to check out.
Here is my Review that was just posted in the eBay Reviews Section:
A Good Beginning Reference But....
...unfortunately even with a 2006 publishing date, it is out-of-date
already!
This is a good beginning for a wannabe blogger to start with, as with most 'For Dummies' books, it is well researched and written for a beginner level.
Saying that, when using several of the resources mentioned in the book, the resource websites are either on hiatus or re-organization, no longer in existence, or have been merged/bought out by another organization.
That is not the fault of this book. However to pay $21.99 MSRP for a book
that is out-of-date is not a wise investment IMHO!
You should check out your local library before buying this book
on eBay or at a B&M store, as it is a good read for those wanting to know what a blog is, the history, how to blog and then what to do with it! Just be aware that the resources mentioned are out of date....
