- Having killer copy is just one aspect of running a great blog. Making it visually appealing can be just as challenging. The folks at Pro Blog Designer offer some tips on spicing up your blog post photos.
- Even writers who have been at it for 30 years occasionally struggle when it comes to word usage. Affect or effect? The differences between an atheist and an agnostics? Capital or capitol? Stop by Confusing Words to get things straightened out.
- How can copywriters use the right words to stir emotions? What are some of the hot-button words and phrases that motivate people? Dean Rieck at Copyblogger offers “12 Tips for Psychological Selling.”
- I love Gmail and I’ve only scratched the surface of its potential. There is so much you can do with it to stay organized. Jim Barr explains the genius behind Gmail with Gmail Tips.
- Heres’ a two-for-one bonus. I love old time ads. Most look silly and superficial now, but at the time they were state-of-the art. Well Medicated offers 50 Vintage Advertisements while Excitement Machine displays Ebony ads from 1972.
