Martha Knows Blogging Is Not Weird!

January 2, 2009

Yes she does! I spent some time on the couch today, a wee bit under the weather expecting that regular monthly visitor that is rarely welcome in my neck of the woods, but I digress…

I just wanted to give you a quick tip-off about Martha Stewart’s New Years Day show that aired today in Australia (on the dreaded pay-tv). It was all about blogging. YIKES! What better way to usher in the New Year and fend off the hormones then to hear Martha and her guests talking about how terrific blogging is?!

A particularly lovely food blog writer admits to over ONE MILLION vistors a month! Oh my gosh! There’s baking and computers and cute frogs and pretty pictures galore. It’s a creative geek’s paradise, in fact. The show also featured gardening, design, photography, gossip and political bloggers. The perfect medicine for a lack-lustre afternoon. Thanks Ms Martha Stewart! You are a smart sponge cookie, you are!

You can watch here.
