		<description>Cherry: no way!!! (I tried to edit the wiki page but I couldn't, will have to experiment)&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;Mooiness: great rules. I still don't know who my target audience is but I think I'll resolve that by working out what it is I'll write about :) If I wasn't so identifiable here (anyone who &lt;i&gt;really&lt;/i&gt; wants to know can probably do a bit of fossicking around and work it out!) I would talk about work. I'd have to start a new anonymous blog... but then writing about work would probably make my blood pressure rise so it's probably a good thing not to write about it!</description>

		<description>Have you read this in the Blogger help:&lt;br/&gt;http://help.blogger.com/bin/answer.py?answer=1060&#038;topic=44&lt;br/&gt;The section relevant to what you are saying is in the middle.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;The rules that I follow for myself are these:&lt;br/&gt;1. Know your focus or target audience as you've said.&lt;br/&gt;2. Resist the urge to blog about anything and everything, ie. don't have a verbal diarrhoea. ;)&lt;br/&gt;3. Make a publishing schedule for yourself (eg. every 2 days) and keep to it.&lt;br/&gt;4. If stuck, write about stuff that you know personally and well. There's always a mine full of stuff to write about from one's past or present. No one can be that boring. :)&lt;br/&gt;5. Read a lot of blogs - great for ideas too.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;And yes - don't EVER blog about work. :P</description>
