The adventures in blogging continue. Blogging and aggregation is a hot topic in St. Louis lately. If you blog, you’ve dealt with the up and downsides of it. If your blog has RSS, there’s a good chance someone is aggregating it. Maybe that happens inside an RSS reader, but it can also happen at a blog aggregator site.

What can you do to get it right? Create your own aggregator of course!
