    Penelope Trunk's Blog is Hot!

    Penelope Trunk's Blog, Brazen Careerist, has an OUTSTANDINGLY excellent post dated November 10, 2006 and entitled, The Easiest Instruction for How To Start A Blog.

    I remember the intellectual and emotional challenges faced when comtemplating the prospect of starting my first blog. For example... Lack of understanding regarding the "ethos of blogging", not knowing where to start, not knowing if I had something to say, concerns about the time comittments, would anyone read my blog.

    In fact I may not have taken the first big step into the blogosphere had it not been for the gentle support, encouragement and wonderful blogging education provided to me by Sarah Blow (UK software engineer and Founder of London Girl Geek Dinners and Girly Geekdom)... A BIG thank you Sarah!

    Well these many months later I discovered Penelope's post which so beautifully addresses the interests of the ever so many people who want to begin a blog and need to easily know how to start.

    Well done Penelope!

    FYI per Penelope's Brazen Careerist About Page...

    Penelope is a columnist at the Boston Globe. Her syndicated column has run in more than 100 publications including the Wall St. Journal’s Career Journal, the San Francisco Chronicle, and the Seattle Post-Intelligencer.

    Penelope’s blog, Brazen Careerist, has been featured in publications such as TIME magazine and the London Guardian.

    Penelope’s forthcoming book is Brazen Careerist: New Rules for Success (Warner Books, May 2007).

She launched new businesses for multinational corporations and founded three of her own companies. Penelope has endured an IPO, a merger and a bankruptcy. She also played professional beach volleyball.

    Oh Joy!
