Have you ever wondered what’s the best time you could get that great post you wrote out of your drafts, for it to make it to the front page of Digg? To have that leading edge and actually maximize the traffic, revenue and the exposure a blog post might give you? To drop that bomb timed up to the best possible timing? MindBLOGGER today, will try his best to give you guys the answers that you need.

Define the Blogger Timesheet

Much like a timetable, but only less specific and focuses on one week at a time.

Well, as you can see, it’s been a while since I’ve posted and got engaged in discussions with you guys on MindBLOGGER. First I’d like to apologize for my posting irregularities. Dam the flu!

Yes, you heard me right. I’ve been out for the past few days because of the flu and I am now recovering - from the flu and the mess on my desk. I’ll be back in my blogging shoes soon enough. I just couldn’t seem to get it off! And I’d like to take a moment to give a public apology to Mike from Blogging-Ads for the delayed guest post., again, damn the flu!

Alright!

I came across this e-mail by BlogCatalog a while ago. It’s about a widget they claim to be the “most useful, innovative widget that BlogCatalog has launched so far”. Personally I’ve not been a hardcore fan of BlogCatalog, but after testing the waters, I am considering inducting the widget into my blog. After all, this new widget, “News Feed”, might be the next level of a blogger’s typical social widget.

What does it do? Well, as they claim, basically whatever you wanted a social widget on your blog to do. It can obtain your latest activities from a number of social networks.

Do you believe in longevity research? I didn’t, until few hours back, till I read Scott Wainner’s post on Living Well, Indefinitely + $20 Blogging Challenge. I must confess that I visited his blog solely because I came across the phrase “$20 Blogging Challenge”, but after I read his blog post, I should say, he made me start believing in Longevity Research.

Why? I used to think it’s better to die when your time comes rather than live till you’re 100 and experience the effects of ageing and being dependent. I used to think that one should leave to make room for the next generation of the earth’s population.

When I visit a new blog, there are a number of things that convinces me to subscribe to it. Off the top of my head, subscriber count, author’s best posts and the comments count. That doesn’t mean if the subscriber count and the comment count is low, I won’t subscribe to it. But rather, especially the comments count assures me that,

• People are genuinely interested in your blog.
• The author encourages and discussion and is willing to get involved with the readers
• The blog is something worth reading and subscribing to.

Are the commentators so important to the growth of your blog? In my opinion, and as an obvious fact, absolutely yes.

Drumroll.. And MindBlogger unveils what promises to be an epic! Frankly, this is the second time I’m running a contest on MindBlogger. Of course, the first one didn’t quite work out. Anyway, if you’re a blogger, then there’s no reason why you shouldn’t enter the “1650 ECs + a FREE Blog Header + 12 FREE Ads” Contest! Simply because, the winner takes it all and if you don’t win, still you can take something a little bit less than ‘all’! Competition is now declared open and will run till March 18th.
