Let’s look at the Blogger Illustrated

in bloggers,blogging,blogging tips

I don’t think it’s been since me and ExtremeJohn got cool like a year ago that I was struck in awe by the coolness of a blogger. I don’t just mean cool like WOW you retweeted my post I mean cool as in has the balls to not just write a bunch of shit that sounds good.

Many bloggers are to strict in their agenda, they try their best to maintain this front that their design is so bad ass and their content totally KING but let’s face it MOST of those dudes are DICKS and won’t give a damn about you if shit ever hits the fan etc.

To be honest I’m no real tough guy but I do admire MEN that know how to be a man and keep it real. Recently I was invited by James from InfoPreneur to check out this review this guy wrote about him, which was very cool and nice. Anyway I get wind that Allyn the owner of the site is actually this semi underground powerhouse dude with some real cool people on his site. So  like a breathe of fresh air  it was to see people speak the truth about suckers  like Chris Brogan. Well that would of been cool and it’s always NICE to meet new people and it usually ends there. But then I was surprised to see someone of quality actually (NO OFFENSE TO US  NOVICES ALREADY THERE :P ) come to my new semi lame site Blogger Luv Community and join and he said some very cool things to me on there and on twitter.

Here’s my response

Allyn to be honest I can’t believe your on here This site is for people trying to get to your level Smiley
As far as my whacky blog @ http://potpolitics.com it does have profanity and stuff but it’s all clean and links to some of the coolest bloggers in the world so PLS feel free to find a way to stop by and work on your backlinks and assess my insanity Smiley
I thought that one dude Rob was going to be a dick at first but I found out he’s a pretty cool Cat and has an awesome mind Smiley
I want to add your site to this page at http://potpolitics.com/blogs-i-like/ Pls send me a msg on what anchor text I will put it in the number two spot so think of something DOPE Smiley LOL
Thanks so much I was just looking at this site @ http://ablakeforum.com/index.php for some ways to make this site better Smiley I will be by your blog http://bloggerillustrated.net/
After this post @ http://bloggerillustrated.net/profiling-james-the-infopreneur/ a few people came by my site COOL people I was Happy Smiley
This post is awesome Smiley http://bloggerillustrated.net/dear-chris-brogan/
Thanks Allyn hope this is just the beginning of a new friendship Smiley

OK the BAD news. I know people (ME)  don’t like any feedback about their site and I’m not about being the critic but I will just say that I would add some stuff to the sidebar :) Other then that I look forward to becoming HOPEFULLY a part of Allyn’s blog Community of unique characters keeping it real. Here’s an awesome video (WATCH IT ALL PLEASE :) of Allyn so you get an idea of who he is and why I like him so much, I hope the last few days are the beginning of a good real friendship, best wishes Thanks  Allyn Peace

DUDE… :)

Hey John,

I am liking this blog ALOT!

I like seeing people standing up and being real, authentic, and THAT you are…

I also agree, Allyn is one smart bloke who obviously knows his shit.

The everything you need to know about backlinks post Allyn did was top notch.
Ya both right, Brogan talks shit. :D

Thanks for that mate…I’m subbed, regular reader now too.

@ Rob from I was just reading this post > http://robsellen.com/2010/02/listers-no-thanks-what-i-read-and-you.html where your wrote this and I was like WOW semi stunned I almost missed it but I got that little widget on the sidebar that alerts me :) Here’s what you wrote…. Thanks oh I hope Allyn likes the post I threw together last night on the FLY :)
Trust agents… whatever, Brogan is that guy, bitchslapped by a pot smoking dude… (good man!) I know who’s opinion I’d trust, and he ain’t no agent!

You might feel John (linked to above this) is a bit brash with it, you’d be right there, that’s his style, I like it, he is straight up no bullshitting you, telling it like he sees it, don’t let that put you off though because he talks some truth, well at least you’ve been warned… ;o)

The bottom line is these A-listers pick and choose the airy-fairy-you-are-great types of people to converse with, not people like John who tell it as he sees it.

Thanks Bro that made my day but we have more important things to build like our friendships then worry about that over rated Goof we gave him a spank he went away next time he may get a beat down or maybe he will change a bit I don’t have no real hate for the dude but I don’t take getting treated like a chump :) It’s all good and I hope we all keep in touch thanks for signing up for the emails :)

John,

I agree, we all get better things to do.. but if we turn ONE person off that kum-by-yah shit, we done good. :D

No hate for any of them… just don’t like their crappy tactics which are at best misleading, at worse dangerous.

Preying on the naive is no way to go mate.

Did someone say my name? Whats up brother! Sorry been on a mental vacation doing that thing they call fucking work… Haha, it’s that time of year so I need a little extra zip in my step.

Love the new Backtype addition brother, I just signed up there about a week ago I haven’t looked at it yet. It’s on that never ending list.

Great videos, I will def. be stopping by to check out Blogger Illustrated, I don’t subscribe or read that blog yet.

As for the InfoPreneur so far so good on my end, we go back and forth from time to time on Twitter. I do wish that my comments there wouldn’t get spamafied, but it’s all good. He has like 5 articles in my reader that I have been trying to get to since last week, getting there today. no fuckin stoppin me!

“MOST of those dudes are DICKS and won’t give a damn about you if shit ever hits the fan etc.”

– This is my case. You can thank bloggers millions times, to improve their egos, but mostly none of them would ever help you, whenever you need it.

Glad to see you here , John. Though I hate you :)

Ever have one of those moments where you want to say something poignant, rife with witticism and clever juxtaposition? Unfortunately, nothing comes to mind but lame crap like “loved the videos” and “soda just shot from my nose that was so hilarious”. Yet, my presence just had to be recorded for posterity. I was here, damn-it! I read, I laughed, I wasted space right here on your site. ;)

John, how can I thank you for this man? Seriously, I am humbled that you would post my shiz like that.
All the love aside, you really do get social media man, and that is so rare! I plan to “friend you up” all over the net man.
I have tried to mellow out my style a bit lately, but it is fun to let loose and be blunt too.
Again, you are good people, it’s obvious!

I’ve been visiting Al’s blogs for awhile now and you never know what to expect there. It could be a complete hoot or totally informative.

James is a blogging demon and you are one of the best bloggers I know that loves to help others.

Oh, as for Al’s Aussie accent, it sucks big time :D

Wow! Since Allyn’s post on James I have found so many neat people. This is so great and you are right, Allyn is one of the most real guys around. Looks like I have another blog to follow from now on. Really enjoying your writing style.

Hm. Not sure what to think of this blog yet, you seem like a good guy but my head’s still reeling from the approach. lol.

That said, I agree – Allyn is an awesome guy and what he’s doing over at BloggerIllustrated is amazing. He tells it like it is, and frankly, that’s worth far more than the same old regurgitated crap you get on some blogs (No names mentioned here, and fyi – I still like most of the people that run the blogs).

Anyway, I’ll be subscribing for a while and it’ll be interesting getting to know you. :)
