mark day.People often ask me how I come up with things to blog about, and I find the question strange, because my problem is the opposite. I have too much to blog about. Why? Because there’s a whole fast revolution rolling through, and right now – today – is our time to make it all work for us. If we’re going to show people how to use social media to drive meaningful conversations instead of being yet another marketing tool, we have to run out and educate at a break-neck pace, so we can bring more and more thought leaders into alignment with these big and not-so-big organizations who could use our help.

So, on my plane ride home from San Francisco, I decided to write you up 100 blog post titles that I want YOU to write. Take one of these and run with it. Make the coolest ideas from whatever these spark in you, and keep coming back to these as often as you want. Bookmark the page. Copy/paste it into a notepad file. Whatever works for you. Or just use them as a way to bounce into better posts of your own devise. Make podcasts. Whatever works for you.

    Awesome list. Definitely a couple of topics worth blogging about.
  • This list is cool but weird.
  • OK there is a mass of stuff here and I now don't have time to write a long post because I have to rush off and write up one of these topics. Thanks for getting me going.
  • thewriterslife

  • well, I've made it my mission to write about everything on here. (i know this is old but it's new for me)
  • Thanks for the info, Chris, I've been wanting to blog about something and this list has helped give me some ideas thanks!
  • Thanks for these ideas I bookmarked them for later :)
  • Thanks for the inspiration. I've needed it for months now.
  • scarlettXP
    I am a teenager. And honestly, I dont think any of theese ideas will do for me. I want something interesting, something I can connect too. I want something that people will read everyday, and enjoy. I have been searching all day. And I haven't found nothing!

    thanks
  • valerieneal
    Thanks for the tips, I'm gonna print and save.

    I may have missed it, if so I am sorry, but I ran across a post that was what I would call The RIGHT way to join a Blog Carnival. The joiner posted a post about the carnival (no searching for an appropriate post to comment on). Introduced herself, and then put links to 3 of her favorite blogs. Perfect. I mention this because this is something I needed to read about, but just did not know it.
  • Great blog, and great ideas. Now following.
  • Expadaloco
    This article should be re-published it gives a lot of idea's, but on the other hand there is a pitfall. To many idea's can stop you with writing as you most of us can focus on only one. (when you are a man that is ;))
  • futuremama
    I saw I few i could write about, it seems most are tailored to social media though which has NOTHING to do with my blog. I wonder through if since people always ask me "how I got my blog so big" if writing post like this now and then could be helpful. Hmmm, maybe. I'm torn between "Breaking out of my shell" and just being plain boring. I'll look over the list again though!
  • Thanks for the ideas!
    i'm working on #23
  • heh..very very good topics
  • Thanks for the list. I wonder if its going to help me tonight LOL I am hoping it will get my muses off and running on the second read....though the ones about social media are tempting me to write one about how social media almost ruined my relationship *grins* Interesting list thanks

    I've started blogging a few years back but I have yet to identify the best approach in making my blog a success. I never quite knew how to go about posting entries which would both attract and engage readers. Recently, I've kicked-start a new blog in hopes that with new looks and hopefully new determination, this new blog of mine would gain positive outcomes.

    Your 100 blog topics are indeed unique, witty and interesting. I might give some of them a shot. This question has been bugging me though... Does a blog need to be niche? Because if it does, then mine is probably heading in the wrong direction because it is a mixture of personal and general contents. Any suggestions or views on your side?

    Thank you and cheers!
  • This is just what I need. Thanks, Chris!
  • That is one of the best collections that I could pull out for writiningon my blog. Man look at the variety of subjects / topics you have just listed above. Hope many like me will benefit from this.
  • Nice list i will it a try

  • Absolutely love this post Chris. Still a reference point for me in so many ways...

  • Media topics that need more coverage...I have one..I am self employed, and my now former business was simply decimated over the past three years. I see unemployment figures on the news and I just want to pinch someone. I don't know about anyone else's state, but my state and the county I live in, rely heavily on revunues generated by real estate and it's anciliary businessess...and on stated income loans for people with good income and credit. I never see andthing sustantive about those numbers as far as unemployment go. and they are significant..I would say between making little or nor money, the unemployment rate is about 85%.. How to we get some attention for that one?
  • I love it!! I have a blog, but my mind is too crowded with things I don't want to write about, like just trying to survive right now.. I am printing out your list for inspiration...is that okay for me to do? or is that stealing...don't want to steal anything...
  • hey man great list
  • Erica
    Thanks for the many ideas. I am actually going to use some of them for articles.

  • Just what I needed! At times I get many ideas, but there are days like today I feel I've already written about a topic.

    Something else that has helped me is carrying a notepad and pen everywhere. I seem to get my best ideas at random times doing other things away from the computer!

    Thanks,

  • It is not a mystery nowadays it is rather difficult to present a specific bestowal or to congratulate your friends on some peculiar event or upcoming feast like St. Valentine's Day or birthday becoming original and inimitable. To solve this difficulty you may use new popular way - electronic cards - that will help you to demonstrate the intensity of your feelings in original way.
    If you don't get where to obtain these e-cards use search engine like Google and you will see that many Internet resources propose to their users diverse offers concerning the designing and trading individual electronic cards designed specifically for your crony or partner. Some of them can make from the picture of your crony exclusive 3d animated e-card designed by professional lanners that won't make him or her impartial. All you have to do is to find for such Internet resources.
    In case if you are short of finance there are also many web sites that offer their users to select among popular animated and common electronic cards for giving them to your friends. Obviously in such situation there is a little risk that your crony will obtain two similar electronic cards and won't be glad, but anyway it is better than dispatching ordinary post card.
    There is also a third method for those who can't afford to purchase original electronic cards and don't desire to choose among popular but extended. Some Internet sites propose to invent your own e-card to those visitors who can draw or like to make original drawings and images with the help of Photoshop and various graphic editors. You may demonstrate your abilities without even quitting such Internet site due to you can obtain everything you need over there. Moreover the clear fact that you will make your crony amused and surprised by dispatching him or her exclusive "hand-crafted" e-card, you may receive an interesting financial proposal from Internet site's owners if they like your works. Plenty of talented clients like to earn in this way due to it is the best method of earning money and demonstrating yourself like an artist.
    If you are a Internet resource's owner and desire to make your Internet resource well-known among search devices and people you should use electronic cards for encouraging and you will see that your Internet site becomes popular and prosperous.

  • Hey!


    I used to play mmorpg games for years. Actually I still play lotro and world of warcraft. When you are a hardcore player with limited time it is difficult to farm gold for your gear yourself. So I use different gold sellers to buy plat online. There are alot of china based stores with high prices and slow delivery performance so finding good and trustworthy sellers is often a problem. Eventully I found THESE GUYS they offer really cheap gold and platinum ( plat and powerlevleing ) in EverQuest 1 & 2, EQ, EQ2, warhammer online, world of warcraft gold ( cheap wow us gold ), also EVE online ISK (money), Lineage 2 adena and nice powerleveling services. Those guys often offer instant deliveries but even if you preorder deliveries are fast. any ideas of some other good service?


    Thank you

    Auto majors eye sourcing pact with Argentum owned by Ashish Deora and Team

    MUMBAI: A couple of European and Asian auto majors including Peugeot-Citroen of France are in talks with Argentum Motors to manufacture components and cars, it is reliably learnt.

    Argentum is also planning to invest around Rs 500 crore to upgrade the facility. The three promoters of the company will eventually hold around 12% in the company after the debt is converted into equity and fresh investors are roped in.

    “This capacity will attract a large number of global auto manufacturers as the company has all the building blocks for integrated car and component manufacturing,” said an analyst of a Mumbai-based brokerage.
