The 10 Commandments of Blogging

a Biblical thought...
When the people saw the mutes speaking, the maimed healthy, the paraplegics walking around, the blind looking around, they were astonished and let everyone know that God was blazingly alive among them. (Matt 15:21)

a Book thought...
Orbiting is responsible creativity: vigorously exploring and operating beyond the Hairball of the corporate mindset, beyond "accepted models, patterns, or standards" — all the while remaining connected to the spirit of the corporate mission. (MacKenzie)
a Dave thought... http://www.eauk.org/articles/blogging-ten.cfm


  1. You shall not put your blog before your integrity.

  2. You shall not make an idol of your blog.

  3. You shall not misuse your screen name by using your anonymity to sin.

  4. Remember the Sabbath day by taking one day off a week from your blog.

  5. Honour your fellow-bloggers above yourselves and do not give undue significance to their mistakes.

  6. You shall not murder someone else’s honour, reputation or feelings.

  7. You shall not use the web to commit or permit adultery in your mind.

  8. You shall not steal another person’s content.

  9. You shall not give false testimony against your fellow-blogger.

  10. You shall not covet your neighbour's blog ranking. Be content with your own content.

    Just a thought.

Does your 'referencing' save you from breaking rule number eight?

Really like this one Dave!!

I do belive 'referencing' does stop you breaking rule number 8 - give credit where credit is due - there is a lot of good stuff out there that needs to get further out there, so use it and give it it's proper credit,... ie some of the famous quotes from James Barker, William Booth, Railton, Brengle etc, I love knowing the origins!

Might 'reference' some of this blog sometime... ;)

Blessings,
