He surfs the waves and the web – at the same time! Woah!

It is very important that readers of your blog know exactly when, where, why, how, and what you’re doing at all times – this also applies to vacation. Don’t even say that that’s what Twitter is for – Twitter is something birds do.

WRITE A BLOG POST DESCRIBING WHAT YOU’RE DOING
Considering I myself am on vacation at the moment, I’d like to tell my readers that I’m going to Lake Tahoe to ski. I offer my condolences to you if I do not accurately respond to your e-mails or requests due to the fact that my hotel may be prehistoric and not have internet. Blah blah blah it’s going to be fun blah blah blah be back in a while etc. etc. more of the same.

WHAT SHOULD YOUR POST INCLUDE?

• Always be sad at the fact that your hotel might not have internet access and ask for forgiveness.
• Apologize to your readers numerous times about random things, even though they probably don’t care.
• Describe where you’re going even if it has nothing to do with your blog whatsoever.
• Give a ballpark estimate to when you’ll post again. By then, all but your most faithful readers will have left, but you want to make sure that any stragglers can still know when you’re content is coming up.

WHEN SHOULD THIS BE POSTED?
The day before you leave on vacation at the very last moment. It is essential that you do not think about your first post and you should make it as dull and boring spontaneous and interesting as possible.
