Our Special Guest Speaker: Professional Blogger Philip Elmer-DeWitt

Professional blog writer Philip Elmer-DeWitt paid us a special visit this past week to share his expertise in blogging and offer us some practical tips for improving our blogs! We all left Friday afternoon hoping to update our blogs to ensure we get repeat visitors.

Some of his tips were:
- Blog often! If you can, at least once a day.
- Know your subject and write to encourage reader comments.
- Add links to your blog. Maybe someone will link back to you.

Let's show him we follow directions. Please comment on this post! And Philip, is this what you mean by links?

Special thanks to Ewan and his mom for setting up such a great afternoon.
