If you still use 'admin' as a username on your blog, change it.

I'm totally not a blogger. Sometimes I don't even check my email. I know I should.
When someone calls me a blogger, I think, 'That's one of the things I used to do.' I'm a creative director for my shoe brand; I'm the editor-in-chief of 'The Blonde Salad,' which is a website and not just a blog anymore.
I think the word 'blog' is an ugly word. I just don't know why people can't use the word 'journal.'
Blogs are quite a new development - now, everyone wants to know you, everyone wants to know everything about you. And you can build a following that way. In a way, it's a good thing if you want to create a buzz around yourself.
I have a problem with blogs - all the best writers benefit from edits.
Everyone has this perception that the bloggers, they say horrible things about you and they hide behind their computers where you can't see them.
Blogs are evil. Actually, the blogs aren't as evil as blog comments.
Just because you have a blog doesn't mean that you should, like, lie for no reason.
Never change the URL of your blog. I've done it once, and I lost much of my readership. It took several months to build up the same reader patterns and trust.
I have an amazing social-media wing man who manages my Facebook fan site. All my blogs get copied there.
