Blog-buddy System One of the challenges in getting people from truely different walks of life to take up blogging is finding a mentor. Most new technologies require informal network support. While blogging tools are becoming easier to use and you can find help on a message board, its something else to have someone to give you technical or cultural advice from the outset.
With the Blog Tribe we have lots of people interested in starting weblogs from very different backgrounds and locations. I am thinking of starting a Blog-buddy System, which lists tribe members willing to mentor new bloggers. While this would be a great cultural practice in blogspace in general, we have a unique opportunity to help the Ryze community and demonstrate its effects to blogspace at large.
This is hardly a new concept, my daughter had a buddy in kindergarden from the 5th grade, and they are great friends.
If you are a tribe member and would be interested in potentially being a Blog-buddy, please email me or note so in the comments field.
