Windows 7 Pro Blogging about blogging
 

There;s a new book because of out next week that needs to be of curiosity to anybody who is curious about what tends to make bloggers and blogging tick.It;s known as Blogging Heroes: Interviews with thirty of the World;s Leading Bloggers. And I'm honored to get 1 of those 30 people profiled by writer Michael Financial institutions. I feel specifically honored provided the other interviewees he chose for that book — everybody from Wired;s Chris Anderson, to LifeHacker;s Gina Trapani, to TechDirt;s Mike Masnick.Banks asked all of us for details on how we got into blogging, how we choose our subjects and more. He then compiled the advice into handy how-to format so that the take-aways would be useful to other bloggers in any field.I like that Banks mixed up the kinds of folks he interviewed for your guide. It;s not all bloggers who write about technology; there are also bloggers specializing in everything from auctions,Windows 7 Pro, to music.Banks and his publisher John Wiley & Sons (also the publisher for my upcoming book Microsoft 2.0: How Microsoft Plans to Stay Relevant in the Post-Gates Era) gave the interviewees their respective chapters for posting to our sites. This is my chapter in Blogging Heroes.
