Five Things to Improve Your blog (plus One)
A good list of five ways to improve your blog in under an hour, by Brian Shih. The five things are: use feedburner, ping aggregators, fix your typography, use spell check (does spellbound work on FF 1.5.1?) and just write something!
I would add: write an about page with a brief bio and maybe a picture. Too many blogs are missing this, and its very annoying to not have any idea who the author is. If you can’t take the time to write a blurb about yourself, I’m not going take the time to follow your feed everday.
