Top 10 signs you are an online PR blogging geek

by onlineprguy Expert(November 14th) (rank 9th)
 
 
Today I was joking with friends at work about how my blog is indexed more frequently than a client's blog we're managing. Probably a conversation that wouldn't be super-funny to our client, but it prompted a humorous internal conversation:

How do you know you are a true online PR blogging geek? Here are some signs:
  • You check your blog's Google analytics - two times a day or more.
  • While you love Firefox's SEO plugins, you are all about Flock's social browser; you also agree with the statement: Once you go Flock, you never go back.
  • You consider anyone still using IE, other than for testing purposes, a total nerd. (versus geek, I guess, which is cooler. Maybe).
  • You twitter about the fact that you are twittering.
  • A common bar pickup line you use is, "hey baby, did you see who commented on my last post?"
  • You care more about your blogroll than your wedding invitation list (for more, see my posts tagged: "fast route to divorce").
  • When chatting with a prospective date online, and are asked for a pic, you reply with your blog's URL.
  • You find yourself using "API" in casual conversation.
  • You sit back and smile with satisfaction over your excellent use of keywords and anchor text in your posts.
  • Finally: You relate to any or all of the above.
None of this is bad - well, the relationship advice (or lack of) is nothing to follow - but Online PR pros getting excited about blogging is a good thing for our profession and our clients.

Hi onlineprguy,

you are the sort of guy I am looking for who may be able to read my blog about and Economic and Political "Research" to stop Whaling "Research" and if you are interested in the cause, to use all of your expertise to promote the cause in all those areas that you mention in this article.   I will look up Firefox  and Flock to see how they can help me and then I will be one step closer to a Blogging Geek however I think I have a way to go. I enjoyed the humour in the article but i also enjoyed the article partly because I have no idea as to the terms and phrases that you were using which highlights a whole new world of adventure for me.
