Thanx so much for the linkage and mention
Yeah, makes me think I have to dedicate a lot more time to SWR

You bet Erik – love your blog!

Jon – I am enjoying both of your blogs very much! I’ve been wondering if it’s been difficult for you to keep them both running – especially when one is new and exciting. How is it managing 2 blogs that you’re so personally invested in? Great stuff!!

Hi Christine, thanx so much!
Well, it’s a lot more work, but I’m really happy to have many great writers with me on the new blog, it helps a lot. I like it cause both blogs, while being in niches/topics that are kinda close to each other, they’re totally different, I don’t write posts on FF the same way I write on SWR, so it’s cool, helps me explore new ways of writing.

Now, when I have some free time I try to catch up on e-mails and write new posts for both blogs instead of surfing stumbleupon aimlessly lol (SU take eat up a lot of time)
And I’m also (re-)discovering social networks, but from a different angle. (will write about that soon)

Thanks for sharing Jon! Those are good points for anyone thinking about starting multiple high-quality blogs. You’re right… Stumble Upon can be so addictive! I don’t hardly trust myself to go there any more. I’m looking forward to reading your post about social networks!
