The first rule of blog club is you don’t write about blog club…

Mark over at Weblog Tools Collection wrote a cute little post titled “Things You Should Avoid Blogging About“. In summary,

1. Don’t write about your pet
2. Don’t gripe about how busy you are
3. Don’t whine about comments (specifically lack of)
4. Don’t lament the future in-laws
5. Don’t write ‘dear diary, i never dreamed this would happen to me…’

So, in summary, blog authors should not be so self absorbed. While there is a time and place for everything, and sometimes breaking the rules yields interesting results, many of these rules seem like good ideas.
