I decided to do a style blog as my project for Media 2.0. My biggest reason for this is because I've never put myself out in the "public eye" so to speak. And I felt this would be a great way to do that. I also decided to do this blog because I love what other bloggers of this nature are doing, so I wanted to add my 2 cents in. I never realized all the work that goes into doing a blog until this project. If you want your project to be successful, you have to stay with it.
One of my biggest advertising avenues was using Networked Blogs. All you have to do is set up your profile, add your blog name, select which web sites you want to publish your blog posts, and it takes care of the rest. I set mine to publish my new posts in FaceBook and Twitter. And with the help of my friends retweeting my Network Blogs tweet and sharing in FaceBook, I have so far gotten over 250 hits to by blog. And I also got help by adding tags to my blog posts.
I have really enjoyed doing this project and I plan on keeping it going after I graduate. Here is a list of my URL's:
