5/5/09 Guest Personal Finance Post

Today I was excited to have the opportunity to guest-post for BibleMoneyMatters.com, one of my favorite PF blogs, while the writer takes a few days off for a family emergency.

  Here’s a funny thing about bloggers. We really help each other out.  In the print world, this blog and mine would be in direct competition, and we’d be working like crazy to take each other out.  We both have similar messages and similar audiences, however, blogs being “free media” for the reader, aren’t in competiton with one another (aside from the friendly page-rank competition).  You see, in blog media the readers will always read more blogs.  They won’t choose one over another unless your content gets old or stale or off-message.  Same goes for Twitter. It’s a media that truly is about quality. It makes for happy writers, happy readers, and happy advertisers/sponsors.  No adversaries here (except the SPAM commenters of course, but at least the bloggers are universally united against them).

I love the Internet.
