I don’t think there are an unlimited number of original topics a blogger can write about. At some point, all bloggers repeat something that has, in essence, been previously said. But the really great bloggers are the ones that are able to take a topic that has been previously discussed and recycle it in such a way that the delivery is entirely original.

I’ve been watching carefully the auction for Problogger.com first when the domain went into the domain name aftermarket after the previous owner let the domain expire. Someone acquired the domain north of $4,000 then tried to flip it on eBay for a profit. After seven days, the eBay auction didn’t complete because the reserve wasn’t met. Today, just out of curiosity, I checked the domain again to see what was happening.

From time to time I see comments on this and other blogs that indicate concern amongst bloggers that linking out too much is bad. The nature of the concern is two pronged. One, some feel that linking out too much results you sending traffic away and reducing the stickiness of one’s own blog. Two, some feel that linking out too much will have a negative effect for search engine rankings. I don’t think either should be a concern for the quality blogger.

I don’t know if Tony Hung did it on purpose or not but he got himself some real attention by baiting Jason Calacanis to respond to Tony’s blue collar blogging post. Good for him for creating some buzz around an issue that may or may not have ever existed. Tony set up the bait and Jason bit it.
