Skim the News for Blog Post Primers

Looking for something to blog about? Look no further than the daily news.

Sometimes if you’re in a blogging rut you just need a little primer to get those blogging juices going. You can sit in front of a blank wordpress “write post” page or you can head over to Honolulu Marathon. From there ideas started flowing about marathon training, marathon runners, how old to too old to run a marathon, how young is too young to run a marathon. The ideas just flowed from the headlines.

If you actually click through and read the news articles even more ideas can flow. I could just do a quick list of the last five winners of the Honolulu Marathon. Or I could do a quick little these are the top 5 times for the marathon ever. See the ideas just flow after you get a little primer.

The news, especially a large group of news articles like search engines provide. Is a great way to do it.
