Food For Thought - 9th July 2007
Published July 9th, 2007 in Blogs, Blogging, Thoughts.Most delighted to have run across the following inspiring posts:
- “What 3 things would you say to the teenager you were“ : Alan of Made To be Great asked this interesting question. What are your answers? His are as follows (Gist here, please do click into Alan’s site for the full version. You will be delighted.):
- Don’t worry, be happy
- Live the golden rule: “Do unto others as you would have them do unto you.”
- You control your life
- My way on clutter: Never “organise” what you can discard: Merlin of 43 Folders starts this discussion on “housecleaning” which brings numerous insightful comments, ranging from technical to psychological on the topic. Check it out.
- A Digital Dunbar’s Number: Surfing the huge blog-sphere feels like swimming in the middle of the Pacific Ocean for me. And Aldon of Orient Lodge has made his awesome attempt in mapping out his MyBlogLog journey. Really, don’t miss his amazing connection graph and interesting reflections!
- Sparks of Possibility: Peter of Necessary Skills keep delivering insightful posts. What we can do? What we can’t do? A spark of possibility can lead to groundbreaking difference. Just don’t give up before even started. BTW, congras to Peter for awarded the Schmoozer Award for his natural ability “to converse casually, especially in order to gain an advantage or make a social connection.”
- Kirsten of Think Positive! Blog keep repeating this “Warning: prolonged use of positive thinking may create a permanent positive attitude. :)” in her every daily affirmation post. Hahaha. Brilliant!

I’m glad you liked my map of MyBlogLog. I’ve done a little more mapping, and really the map may reflect more my patterns of surfing MyBlogLog. I’ve created another map, for last Wednesday, which reflects the effects of Wordless Wednesdays.
Also, the links are broken. My Digital Dunbar’s Number post is at

Thanks Aldon. Your map is really eye-opening. And sorry for the broken link - updated with new image link added.
Thank you again Shine for the mention
Hi there, thanks for the linkback to the article, I really appreciate it ;). Have a wonderful day!
Thanks for the mention and link love! I am off to check out some of the other posts you mentioned. Thanks for the new blogs to discover.
Hi Peter and Alan,
It’s enjoyable and enlightening to read what you wrote.
Hi Kirsten,
Nice meeting you and nice blog you have!
Hi Shine,
I’ve only been blogging myself for 3 months. Much the same as you, I’ve gone through quite a transition since I first started as I’ve developed my style.
It’s a great journey, and sounds like you’re having fun.
And yes, there is a lot of work involved, not just within your own blog, but the networking as well to get exposure. ‘Build it and they will come’ does not apply to blogs
Hi Deborah,
Great to see you here and thanks for your sharing.
And, you know what, your blog is so professional that you don’t look like a 3-month old at all!!!
Nice meeting you my friend. Isn’t it great to meet interesting people along the way?
Great site, especially because you are new to blogging! wow… lot’s of effort, isn’t it? I also new to blogging and I think you are much more better! Yesterday I think I was fed up with this blog things as I find it hard to build the network.. but now I have new spirit… LOL… for many women out there are just the same like us, try to blog and get noticed! *wink* Well done, Shine!
