We Love Blogging
It's obvious that we at TypePad love blogging and with Valentine's Day fast approaching we thought we'd wear our heart on our sleeves and declare our love. We love blogging and we know you do, too! And to celebrate that love affair we invite you to declare what you love about blogging. Here's ...
I totally disagree with your policy. I've known people that have run Spanish radio stations/speak no Spanish. I know people who can write, but just don't blog. I'm 44, and knew only how to turn on a computer 3 years ago. What I have learned has been on my own.
Bloggers, internet money makers etc. try to make it all sound like lawyers and their "legalese". There's something sooooo special. The "average" person just can't do it. Okay, maybe the average person can't do it. Let's say a person of 120 IQ or more. They could be taught a lot of things to "catch up".

Most cases never get near trial. Blah, Blah, Blah

If you don't blog, you can't work at crayon...
There, I said it. The post title probably sounds a little harsher than it actually is, but here's the thing...the culture of a company is its heart and soul; it's perhaps the one aspect of its DNA that is non-negotiable. Over the past 2 years, I've played my part in trying to build the company ...
