Learning from those who are where you want to be is always a great way to go. Tapping into the knowledge of those who have gone before, and learning from their mistakes and experiences can be so helpful.
Now with this day’s journey I do not want to post the entire list Darren included in his book, 31 Days to Build a Better Blog, to avoid plagiarism that might hurt the sales of his excellent book. So instead I will provide links to the nine bloggers he featured and let you all go exploring!

Visit the blogs in this list and find a helpful blogging tip, trick or how-to that spoke to you where you are in your blogging journey.
Leave a comment with a link to the specific post you found helpful and TELL US WHY! If there is another blog you visit on a regular basis for blogging tips and advice, you can leave a link to that site or article as well – but don’t neglect visiting these other nine sites too.
I’ve read several of the blogs listed above (in the past, not today), and to be honest at this moment I feel blogged-overloaded.
Have you ever felt like that?
Blogs are great and I love posting, but I’m finding it hard to get interested in subscribing to blogs. Why? Because my own interests are so scattered around that I find it hard to stay interested in what any particular blogger is writing about every single day.
I haven’t found a multi-topic blog that I really love either.
I may be a person who just doesn’t fully enjoy online reading.
Maybe it’s because I do so much of it for my work, I dunno.
Do you feel excited about reading blogs every day?
BTW I do need to go and read the specific posts Darren suggests. I meant I find it hard to sustain interest in the same blog daily. I float around a lot.
I just read the Momentum post on Seth Godin’s site and holy cow that is exactly what I do! I feel the momentum getting faster and jump off before it gets too fast. Such great advice http://sethgodin.typepad.com/seths_blog/2010/08/avoidingmomentum.html
