Recently, at NetSquared, I got the opportunity to meet David Sasaki, who manages Rising Voices, a project of Global Voices. Rising Voices recently released a request-for-proposals for micro-grants up to $5,000 for blogging work.

Beth Kanter won the NTEN prize at the Nonprofit Technology Conference this year. Perfect choice—she epitomizes what blogging is about—ability to write with a curiosity and imagination for what is possible. Congratulations Beth!

One Word at a Time

At lunch this week, Lucy Bernholz explained that blogging was her way of procrastinating from doing a bunch of things on her todo list, including a bunch of writing. The irony, she noted, was that she probably wrote at least a book’s worth of blog posts during that time.

In her observation lies the kernel of truth that stayed in my head—how does a book get written?

One word at a time.

Just the same way a blog gets written.
