[...] Use a specific posting theme for a specific day of the week: Having a hard time coming up with ideas for posts? Try to invent a theme for a specific day of the week. Recently I added a Friday post to my schedule and called it “Friday Finds.” Posting under the category of “Friday Finds” means I am writing a short post that highlights something of interest I found on the web that week. I’m not trying to write a lengthly essay on the “find.” I’m just trying to pass along a point of interest to my readers with a link and a quick summary of my thoughts on it. Look around at other blogs and you will quickly find other bloggers doing something very similar (David Airey at davidairey.com talks about a similar idea in his post about speed linking). [...]

I’ve started implementing this technique into my blog and have been quite happy with the results. My first introduction to it was through Darren Rowse on ProBlogger.net.

Of course my blog is more technical in nature, so I call mine “Tech Bundles.”

Dennis,

I think that as long as they’re related to your blog topic(s) in general that it’s a worthwhile idea.

In my speed linking posts I usually try to focus on a theme. I am not sure if thats a part of the whole concept or if it should cover various articles?

I tend to go a bit off topic in those articles ;)

Thanks, David, good post. It (and another post) inspired me to put together a list of ways to put together an item when you really aren’t feeling it. Speed-linking is win-win in moderation, I agree.

Thanks. I know exactly what I want to speedlink about on my blogs this week.

Thanks so much.

I think these are important but I would rather a post about peoples opinions on the article like wether they agree, or dont or add something…

However a post once in a while can be good…

Thanks to you all for commenting. Just catching up on the messages you’ve left that I haven’t yet had a chance to address.

I hope you all had a great weekend!
