I've been meaning to do this for some time...I wanted to mention the resource that helped me start blogging, because it is most wonderful and everyone who wants to blog but has not a clue (as was the case for Zuska) should use it. It's a book called Essential Blogging by Cory Doctorow (coeditor of BoingBoing), Rael Dornfest, J. Scott Johnson, Shelly Powers, Benjamin Trott, and Mena G. Trott. All of these coauthors have blogs that are so beautifully designed it just makes me wanna weep. Please, you just can't compare Zuska to the creators of Movable Type, for cryin' out loud. Goddess of Science, yes. Goddess of Blogging, no.
Anyway, the book will take you by the hand and walk with you step by step through setting up your blog and get you going on all the basics. It will take you from the "wha...?...blog...huh?" stage to the "oh wow! I've figured out how to add categories to my home page!" stage. And then you, too, can lose many happy hours blogging away.
