How Creative is Your Blog?
Checkout this guy's blog.
It's written in a voice similar to Jack Handy -- an undead, zombified, brain-eating Jack Handy, that is.
Zombie Eat Brains
Not that zombies aren't cool enough, but the author (Zombie Tom) still manages to write about most things that any other blogger might write about -- it's just zombie-flavored. He doesn't simply say he likes playing HotShots Golf 3 -- he puts it in a Friday Five format. It makes the list at #4 because 1 through 3 is Brains (oh yeah, and #5 is brains too.)
Zombie Tom doesn't rantingly write that he hates the "Silly Little Fairy" commercial that was on the air for Dodge. He forfeits their brain privileges and says he's going to eat the brains of every person responsible for making it (though, it's a very stupid commercial, and I think he'd likely starve.) He stays in character for each and every post. You learn about the man (er... I mean Zombie) and are entertained by the writing.
How creative is YOUR blog?
Is it plain old list of I like this, and I hate that, and our company does very important stuff? Why not write it from the point of view of your end-product, saying how hard it works for the clients, and how thrilled it is to be going to work for the latest client, and how a new and improved sibling is being created by those smart guys in the R&D Department.
In the words of Zombie Tom -- use your brains.
