I was sitting down watching tv. (I rarely ever watch tv) I went to thinking about my blog and the blogs I copied in one way or another. I am not talking about coping content. I am strongly against that. I am talking about design and the way you set up content. As many of you know, I change themes like kids change underwear. This theme I will not change. It has been working perfect for me. I edit this theme a lot. Changing things around, taking a few things off, and added some stuff.
Who Did You Copy?
When I first started I made a lot of categories. One day I was reading a blog and he keep his categories to a minimum and had a “Recommended Resources” page. So I copied that from TylerCruz.
I was looking over my about me page a few days ago. I thought it was very plain. So I did what I normally do. I started looking at other blog about me pages. I went to a good find of mine about me page on his blog. I seen he talked about his projects/websites on his about me page. So I added my projects to my about me page. So I copied that idea from Shannon Lilly.
Now this one I thought was so great that I went back to this blog about 3 or 4 days in a roll before I thought about taking this idea to better my blog. I know very little php and know nothing about building a script but I do know how to look at the source codes. So if you like at your right, you will see the “KushMoney Money Makers” a drop down menu and click “get started!” I copied this idea from The MAKE MONEY ONLINE DOT NET.
Now this is the most important add on to this blog. One of the best ideas I have copied of all! I was surf through blogs commenting, building my technorati rank to get better. I can’t cross a blog that has live streaming video 24/7. I don’t know what was it about that blog but I found myself on it for an hour and half working this guy work, play games, and watch videos. His chat room under the live video feed had over 130 people chating in this chatroom. Then the idea came to me. I can do a show about the same topics I post on the blog. Now I have the schedule for the show everyday of the week. So the live video show idea was copied from Chris Pirillo.
As you can see, reading other blogs has made this blog a lot better. I love this theme I am using, because it enables me to make changes like these and look professional. I just hope you can make changes to your blog from viewing my blog and other professionals.

There is nothing new under the sun, especially in blogging. Most things have been invented. Just that we need to use our story, personality and content to reach the right audience.
I like your straightforward approach on the title. It definitely grabs my attention.

Yeah, there is nothing new, just people personal view on things. I will always be straight froward about everything. I found that many people hate the truth, because it hurts their feels or let them know something about themselves. I like the truth because it shows who people really is.
