I was indirectly referring to <a href="http://blog.guykawasaki.com/2006/02/blog_versus_boo.html" rel="nofollow">step number 1</a>: "Look through my books and find a topic that I'd like to blog about" I certainly didn't mean to imply I've read them all. In fact, quite the opposite: I can't wait to get to them. I also know it's not your fault that you write re-bloggable entires. In no way was this a personal attack, I'm just saying that if there's something really awesome to read... someone else will re-quote, summarize and link it. This was more a comment on how the blogosphere works rather than your quality of posts... I like your blog, Guy. I retract my length statement because I appreciate the 'top 10' format of your entires. Now that I think about it some more you are one of those must-reads. I've re-subscribed... and not just because you took the time to argue your side. I guess I really don't appreciate the 'rank me higher on Technorati' comments. ;-) Hah, sorry Guy, I didn’t mean that what you write is all just from your books.

I like your blog, Guy. I retract my length statement because I appreciate the ‘top 10′ format of your entires.

Now that I think about it some more you are one of those must-reads. I’ve re-subscribed… and not just because you took the time to argue your side. I guess I really don’t appreciate the ‘rank me higher on Technorati’ comments. ;-)

It takes a long time to read because I write long posts. My goal is to provide real content--not just rants or links to stuff you can already find elsewehere. Guy RE:

It’s not all in my books. A lot is, but a lot isn’t. Plus, I’m flattered to think you read all my books and can remember everything I’ve written! :-)

It takes a long time to read because I write long posts. My goal is to provide real content–not just rants or links to stuff you can already find elsewehere.
