Blogworld Series: The Golden Nuggets of Knowledge

by

Writing Essence of All Wealth

Awesome content every time.
Original content with value for your readers.
Perseverance and persistence.
Consistency and authenticity.

Those were the repeated messages from the best sessions I attended. Knowledge and information which addressed not just bloggers but writers, creators, artists, and communicators alike. If you are any one of these, this post is for you.

Ironically, they are messages I already knew before Blogworld – I just did not know why they played such a central role to thriving in the ever expanding blogosphere. [Read more…] about Blogworld Series: The Golden Nuggets of Knowledge

Blogworld Series: The Splendor of Community

by

Darren Rowse, Kaizen Vision, Prolific Living

I did not imagine Blogworld Expo would have this profound effect on me. I was entirely too unprepared for it!

This gathering made this powerful yet virtual community come alive in ways that surpassed the best of my expectations. I am simply dumbfounded from it all! I put faces to names (and Twitter IDs!), voices and gestures to still photos of my friends and peers and fellow bloggers, and in the span of just under 4 days, I watched us form new bonds and reaffirm existing relationships and develop a stronger, tighter and truer sense of belonging to our beautiful community.

It is easy to root for your community of choice, I know – I have watched people do it all my life, yet I have never understood it.

Blogworld Series: The Inspiration in 76 Quotes

At Blogworld

It is the standard definition of success when you set out goals to accomplish – and turn around to do just the same. For Blogworld 2010, I more than achieved all my goals, so fortunate was I to meet the perfect people who pushed me in the directions I meant to go before leaving the conference. Funny enough, a sense of Personal Success was shoved aside – it even became slightly irrelevant – when true winners showed up and in one quick minute, stole the spotlight and all my attention along with them. These winners were Inspiration, Community, and Knowledge. Inspiration from listening to the fantastic speakers, Community from being in the company of amazing bloggers and friends, and Knowledge from the educational sessions.

The next 3 posts are dedicated to all of you who made my first Blogworld so incredibly memorable and special, those of you who could not make it and were sorely missed, and to the rest of my beloved readers who – while having no interest in blogging – read Prolific Living for inspiration and tips to apply to their own lives.
