If I Just Had The Time

Posted on June 23rd, 2008 by Nathan Burke

If I had the time:

  • I’d post here every day.
  • I’d spend at least an hour each day bookmarking, sharing items, commenting on other blogs, and searching for new stuff.
  • I’d take the time to figure out the ins and outs of magnify.net, and I’d run my own channel.
  • I’d publish a podcast on both blogstring.com and the matchmine blog.
  • I’d do more videos.
  • I’d take advantage of the seesmic video comment opportunity on blogs like mashable and techcrunch (you know, if I had something to say).
  • I’d start a video series where I’d interview entrepreneurs and local techies.
  • I’d plan more events.
  • I’d find creative ways to justify attending more events.

That’s the beginning of my list. If you could have an additional, say, 2 hours each day, what would you do with it? And I don’t mean things like “spend more time with my family”. I’m talking about the things you always wanted to try out, but never seem to find the time for.

    Mine, ironically, would be to comment on blogs more. So it’s only appropriate that I’ve been baited to leave that as a comment…

    Thanks to RSS I can consume thousands of blog posts a day - the problem being that I don’t visit most of the sites anymore. A lot of what I read is really awesome content that inspires thought and makes me want to be social and contribute something… yet sadly, I don’t do this as often as I should.

    From a blog marketing perspective commenting out around relevant blogs is one of the most valuable things you can do. I teach companies this during the day- and then when it comes time for me to read and comment… I don’t do it.

    So yeah: commenting on other’s blogs would be something I wish I had more time for. Thanks for the excuse!
