Mention of the Blagger
I got a short review on Gobala Krishnan’s blog yesterday which was nice, so thanks Gobala.
Gobala included a definition of blagger from Dictionary.com which is quite interesting:
Not a bad definition, although I don’t plan on being deceitful. To me a blagger is someone who talks about a subject without always knowing all the facts, which I think fits nicely with my journey in internet and small business marketing - I don’t think I’ll ever know everything there is to know, but as long as I’m adding value I’ll be happy.
So I thought I’d check out a few more definitions of blagger, which to be fair I should have done before choosing the name and buying the URL. Anyway, here’s what I found:
From Allwords.com - to scrounge something, to get it for nothing
OK I can live with that, a lot of small business marketing is about getting results without spending much money. So this fits OK.
From the Urban Dictionary - British prison slang for a bank robber, a term for a male of African American heritage.
Oops, neither of those fit, I’m not a bank robber or an African American.
Still, interesting reading anyway. If you want to read other blogging blaggers, check these guys out:
I think the morale of the story - do some thorough research on your name and brand way before you launch. It could be very costly if you get this wrong.
