A well-deserved break

I've decided to take a short break from blogging at Top Ten Blog Tips.

I thought I'd take the opportunity to give you a few stats and links, something I've not done before on this blog.

Trivia and stats

  • Top Ten Blog Tips currently has 62 posts (not counting this one).
  • There are 780 comments. That's an average of 12.58 comments per post.
  • Since I started posting every Monday, Wednesday and Friday, I haven't missed a day.
  • Every single post relates back to the "Top Ten" aspect of the title (again, not counting this one).

Round-up links

Over at benbarden.com, I've just published the second of my weekly round-up posts. Here are the links:

Why the break?

Honestly, I'm in need of a breather. As you can see from the weekly round-ups, I have a lot of projects on the go at the moment. For this blog, I need to step away for a bit, refocus, then start planning my next batch of posts. For my development projects, I need to work on a few things that will help to move them forward.

Follow me on Twitter and you'll know as soon as anything interesting happens. Either that, or you'll just know as soon as I post something on Twitter!

And as a now-governor once said... I'll be back. (Really. I will!)

I'd find it hard to write 10 tips so regularly and quite understand the need to have a break. I'm sure I can spend the time fruitfully, by re-reading all the tips so far, and not pretending I now know all there is to know about blogging :o)

A well deserved break indeed. I have often wondered just how you manage to keep everything going. Enjoy your break and don't work too hard on your other projects.

Hey Ben, I understand that it's really difficult to consistently churn out posts that are relevant and yet informative. Have been dropping by on a regular basis and slurping up those 'top ten' posts.

Well, enjoy your break and give us a shout over at the forum when you're back.
