		<description>[...] Success in social media will only be possible if you commit to pursuing your strategy with a consistent and diligent effort.  This means taking action that is in concert with your strategy on a daily basis.  You must connect to people and companies that are complimentary to your goals and you must foster an interaction with them in order to see any results.  It takes time and it rarely comes from little effort. I like the way Chris Brogan described it in a post about a year ago (read the full post titled Remember the Root Goal): [...]</description>

		<description>A tends to be bleak, with most individuals dying from the disease within a year after diagnosis. However, there are some who will live a decade or more with this deadly form of cancer. Why the discrepancy in prognosis? As with most cancers, the earlier it is detected, the better the outcome.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;There may be hope for those suffering from mesothelioma though. A diagnosis does not mean death. Many new drugs are being used to help treat the disease and may improve the mesothelioma prognosis greatly. Mesothelioma prognosis, has the most up to date, important information surrounding Mesothelioma, Mesothelioma doctors and symptoms, Mesothelioma treatment, and Mesothelioma tests and research and it is your resource for Mesothelioma attorneys and lawyers, asbestos cancer, asbestos exposure, asbestos removal, asbestos lawsuits, and asbestos attorneys.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.med5.net&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;http://www.med5.net&lt;/a&gt;</description>

		<description>Chris
Your point is well taken. Your route there is quite interesting.
I wonder how many people were attracted by the photo? I was. Like Nicholas, I&#039;ve owned most of these pedals--still own and use many. I read your blog most every day, but this post caught my attention more than usual. I went Flickr site, joined the pedal board group, and enjoyed looking through some of their photos.
Then I came back here to comment.
If your goal is indeed conversation, you&#039;re damned good at it.</description>

		<description>Chris, 

Great post, I have owned most of the guitar pedals in the photo, and now use plug-ins on Pro-Tools 7 for most of my guitar recording. The illustration has merit in the context of your post.

Your point is well taken, blog posts will not make you rich, but engage your community of subscribers with a forum to dialog with you about the posts. If someone is curious enough, they will discover your business-side, and the discussion can &#039;continue over there&#039;.

I am blogging on nine separate blogs because I love writing articles! I have blogged about ipods, skateboards, unicycles, guitars, dieting, weight-loss, cholesterol reduction and mesothelioma. I plan on releasing at least one post per day for the next thirty-days on HubPages.com as an experiment in &#039;revenue-sharing&#039; there.

Not one of these blogs has made me a dime, that is not what they are for, even though they are monetized to the maximum.

Being perceived as an authority is what I am after. Once I have established my credentials, I may choose to market to those individuals who have an interest in that product or service. 

Being authentic is my goal in the next year, even though my next &#039;day job&#039; will be paying the bills.

Respectfully, Nicholas Chase &#039;the video guy&#039; from BlogWorld Expo 2008</description>

		<description>A good chance to think:  my main goal with my blog is to write a book.  So I get to put my thoughts out there, get into interesting conversations, see what interests people and what is boring.  And discover what my book is about...writing to learn, as William Zinsser says.  Along the way, other cool things happen.  But you are right...I should tape a reminder of the &quot;main thing&quot; on the top edge of my laptop, and remember to do all the &quot;offline&quot; things that need to be done to get the book done.</description>

		<description>Chris,

Mainly, yes! Begin with the end in mind. Things I never worry about: images and maintaining 15 different profiles to capture two more in-n-out readers.

Is it okay if I think my stats &quot;deserve&quot; to be better anyway?

:)

Regards,
