Wednesday Blogosphere Roving #14

World MapThis Wednesday's found images are from a wide variety of locations in the northern hemisphere. They include Spring plants in a forest (Maine, USA); an Arctic sunset (Norway); an ethereal image of a bridge (Indiana, USA); a funny little critter (Virginia, USA); and a weather-beaten log house (Alaska, USA).

The topics of the first three of this week's blog articles are things you probably didn't know about, but might find interesting. Then, Tiffany Sanders presents an note-worthy -- and revealing -- look back at her life and writing career, on the occasion of her 42nd birthday. (Everybody say Happy Birthday to Tiffany!) In the final article for this week, Missy reflects on her blog, and notes that it has 29 distinct types of posts. Her post is recommended for bookmarking by bloggers to consult whenever they feel "stuck" for something new to post: surely there will be a mental prompt for a novel idea among those 29 types of blog posts!

Here are this week's offerings:

And here is an assortment of things I posted on my other blogs during the past week (one example from each blog).

Hi Bobbie - Thanks for the link to my indoor cattle article. It is interesting, I have not had too much traffic to that post even with a few diggs and stumbles. The coverage of the issue in the news has also been light.

It may not be on the radar of most people, but it is a scary idea.

Imagine how cattle would be raised for market if it was done behind closed doors. The increased use of antibiotics and other chemicals needed to keep the cattle healthy would be a step backwards. We need to think more about the ethical and healthy production of our food, not just the end price of the food.

I hope you find the time to read more of my articles!

Thanks again.

Hi,
I just noticed you linked to my post. But i see i need to brush up on my writing skills, as the post is not about 29 posts on my blog, but about the different types of blog posts bloggers can write.

I'm gonna have to re-write it to be clearer. Thanxs for the link and the feedback.

I wish i had a personal reviewer review every blog post i write, so this way i know it conveys what i aim to convey.

Have a good Monday!

Missy.

@ Will - Yours was a very interesting and well-written article about a topic most people know little or nothing about -- save for those who work in agriculture, I suppose.

I have been following your blog for some time. It's very good.

@ Missy - Well, it's a good list, and it caused me to glance over my several blogs and realize how many different kinds of posts I do as well. I hadn't thought about these kinds of "post genres" until I came across your list!
