I Zone Out When I Blog

After doing a bit of a data clean up on my Phone, I discovered that around 80% of my blog posts had been sparked off by me tapping away on my BlackBerry.

Viigo is Your Friend

It’s Christmas.
And chances are you are out and about, doing your last minute shopping and preparations.

But, in the midst of the festive chaos, your blog gets thrown down the bottom of the to-do list as hosting family members and shovelling snow off your driveway takes priority.

You’re not alone.
Thoughts of an abandoned blog have filled me with guilt.

But then I realised it doesn’t have to be such a painful thing to do.

As an avid mobile device (BlackBerry) user, responding to comments, and keeping up to date with my favourite blogs has been a doddle.

What’s made this even more natural to do, requiring less effort has been the RSS subscription service by Viigo. It’s made keeping on top of my blogging commitments a click and a scroll away – and at the most convenient of times.
