Arrgh! My internet connection here at our new place is awful. Both my SUN wireless broadband and the supposedly “free wi-fi” at the clubhouse are of no use. Good thing we will just be here for a month (though the place is good). It’s just a pity I could not do business here.

Anyway sorry for the initial rant. I just have to get that off.

Now on to our topic for today and it’s a continuation of my 31DBBB experiment which I started at the beginning of this month. Day 2 is all about making a list post.

I love list posts. And here are 8 personal reasons why.

1. They look neat and organized
2. They are easy to digest in one reading
3. You don’t have to read the whole thing if you want yet you still get the idea of the post
4. They appear very well thought of (even if they don’t)
5. There’s a clear beginning and an end in each item on the list
6. At the end of the post you can easily pick out what you like best
7. You can also easily pick the one you don’t agree on
8. List posts often have less blah blah. They go straight to the point

Okay if you don’t have an idea of what a list post is, you are reading one right now. Tell me how you felt reading the last 8 items above? Ain’t it cool?

It’s no wonder Darren Rowse as well as other “gurus” of blogging place this as one of the ways to make great content and a key to becoming an effective blogger.

You can read the full article of Day 2 here.

Now on to my own list post.

Yup this post doesn’t count!
