It’s not impossible to be both a blogger and a designer. Chances are good though that you’re much better at one than the other.

I’ve found that blogging has made me a better designer. It has, among other things, made me spend more time thinking about design. I’ve not however, found anything, that’s made me a better blogger.

Mary-Ann,
First, thanks for visiting and commenting. I must admit that I don’t think I suffer from either poor thinking skills or a poor grasp of english. While I admit there were moments when my children were younger that I did have some issues with speaking clearly, but that was more a lack of sleep than anything else.

As for my “generalized statement like ‘bloggers don’t do X’, I think it has been very effective since this is one of the most commented and popular posts on this blog.

I do all the above. Rhett is not THE exception, there are plenty of exceptions, and making a generalized statement like “bloggers don’t do X” is either a sign of poor thinking skills or a poor grasp of english.

Yes I am looking for a fight. I thought a blogger was to be controversial.

You might do all of those things but you are the exception to the rule. Look at the number of bloggers that never move past the default theme. The reality is most bloggers have no clue that there is more to the internet than the web. If a person does not have an FTP client or know what SSH stands for and how to use it, they can’t be a serious webmaster.

You have to admit there are a large number of bloggers out there that sit and write about how great they are, how much money they make from telling people how great they are and honestly never actually give any solid information about what their blog is suppose to be about. Personally I am sick of those crappy blogs and I do not understand why people read them.

Can I be a webmaster?

Haha how did I miss this post?! You sir, are looking for a fight, aren't you?

I do all of those things except not "full-time".

And point 3. Hilarious. So true. I have a huge ego and I am awesome. I am going to go write a post about my awesomeness.

Bloggers provide content. We fill da pipes. Webmasters build da pipes.
