		<description><![CDATA[Here's an edited bit of comment spam that I found on one of my other blogs. Essentially, the blog spammer has "helpfully" recharacterized a dropped URL as a "sponsored link":
Hi all!
Keep up this great resource.
Very much interesting site. Here a lot of helpful information. 
Sponsored links: &#60;link deleted&#62;

Yuck.

		<description><![CDATA[There's an excellent interview of Nick Wilson (former owner of Threadwatch) at writingshow.com. In this, Nick gives his unique insight into writing, promoting and making money with blogs; some very useful stuff there.
If you don't know Performancing.com, it's a fairly new community for professional bloggers.
Get the link, and a brief synopsis, at Performancing.

		<description><![CDATA[Don't know if you all have seen it, but Nick_W's Performancing.com has issued Performancing's Firefox blogging toolbar &#8212; beta version. I haven't tried it yet, but it looks to be a useful tool. Drag and drop. Etc.
The direct download link for Performancing's Blogging Toolbar &#8212; which page doesn't :cough: work in Opera. Cool-sounding toolbar, nonetheless.

But perhaps not. Not from the fellow who first came on our radar as the moderator of the CSS forum at WebmasterWorld, then managed to launch and promote a blog to fairly high visibility in the blog world. Seems [...]

		<description><![CDATA[From the ever-helpful macmanx over at the WordPress forums, a note about Feedburner, a new third party RSS-feed stats service. Haven't tried it, but it stands to be interesting if it reveals more about who's reading blogs via RSS feeds.
Note also the WordPress FeedBurner Plugin at the WordPress codex.
Also like the well-written .htaccess for blocking [...]
