Merlin Mann’s “Five Ways You’re Unleashing the Power of Your Blog”

Posted on July 14, 2008

5 Ways You’re Unleashing the Power of Your Blog – according to Merlin Mann*

January 29th, 2008

  1. tearing the veil away from the morally bankrupt raincheck policy at Marshall’s
  2. “crowdsourcing” the naming of your new unicycle
  3. taking a symbolic day off from blogging to protest the unjust treatment of “some Oriental dude” you read about on Slashdot
  4. daring to name names in the “personal holocaust of customer service” you recently suffered at Fry’s
  5. funny new snapshot of your kitty, “Warrant Officer Ripley,” acting like she’s people

From Merlin’s “5’s” site, which is often hilarious, always sarcastic, & usually both.  http://www.5ives.com

Please be aware that some language may be offensive. Proceed with care.

___________________________

UPDATE – MARCH 27, 2009

It looks like Merlin has abandoned “5’ives” – at least for now.

If you enjoy this kind of thing, I encourage you to check out some of Merlin Mann’s other contributions to humanity: Merlin created 43 Folders, co-hosts You Look Nice Today, and speaks about attention & creative work.
