Blogging is a simple way to get out ideas, frustrations, goals, and whatever else. Sometimes, as ideas are flowing, new ones arise or you start to realize you need a game changer. We all have our frustrations, but we all don't have an outlet. Blogging is a great outlet that offers the freedom to express discontent and aggravation, and if the content is free of four-letter words and innuendo, the blog is still considered a professional tool and will set you apart from others in the job hunt.
Regularly blogging will undoubtedly become habit and the outcome: a reference tool. A tool that outlines what works and what doesn't. A list of past experiences and feelings received from them. Blurbs about goals from THEN and bursts of connections with what's happening NOW.
Blogging is a great step into the new era of networking and social media. It can be a doorway into the world of Twitter and a discussion topic on Facebook. Job opportunities lie in social networking, ranging in opportunities from writing monthly 'how-to' blogs to controlling entire company social media programs. These are emerging programs in every industry imaginable, and a lot of opportunity is still out there. So get blogging. And follow me on Twitter.
