Any other GLBT bloggers here?
Just curious who else here has a blog and what there plans are for it... I think blogs have a lot of power because people who know you will read them and maybe learn something that they normally would be uncomfortable discussing in person.

Anyway I just started my blog 3 days ago and any feed back would be great.

See

Is there a gay blog association? Or some way we as gay people can use our blogs to get a uniform message out?

1. hey - I'm not, but I checked out your site
That post about "The Christian Paradox" - that was the leading article in the Bergen Record's Opinion section - very powerful and true article

btw, Bergen Record is the paper of Bergen County, NJ, for those who don't know.

2. Yeah its a great article
I found it on Google news (I love that you can make your own news sections - one for gay news:). Unfortunately I don't think very many christians can read it with out trying to spin the arguments instead of trying to actually act christian...

3. Here's a good one.
I cited it in the DU Blog Box column, which comes out (not pun intended) tomorrow morning:

Check out the links on Good As you. there are several gay blogger associations.

4. Very good blog, FreeState!
I'm impressed! I've been keeping a blog periodically for several months ... but it's mostly just opinion pieces that are too long for posting on the DU. (Plus I get lazy and wait for the muse to strike me, so I don't always keep it updated as often as I should.)

6. I used to blog...
...but ended up getting busy and couldn't keep it up.

I used to talk about political issues which affected our community right around the world.

I admit I do miss it. It was such a good release.

7. I used to...
Loved it, too, but I couldn't get the readership to keep me motivated -- I did a lot of research, and a lot of careful writing, and ended up feeling like I was talking to myself for over a year. Too much competition, I guess -- and lesbians don't draw readers the way John Aravosis does. :)

If you're curious, I used to be Doublethink:

8. I have a livejournal
But my political posts are few and far inbetween.

One of the better gay bloggers I know of out there is Joe.My.God at joemygod.blogspot.com. Pretty amusing.
