My last post before Yom Kippur. As we prepare to spend a day fasting, praying and fessing up to misdeeds, I must own up to a few blogging sins.

The sin: Linking to my own blog posts too much.
The atonement: You can’t “click here” to read more about it.

The sin: A lack of concern for keywords.
The atonement: Occasional bursts of irrelevance geared for cheap search engine optimization. For example: Harry Potter and Britney Spears search Yahoo for a free MP3, but if you Ask Jeeves, the best job available is to chat about Ebay baby name downloads.

The sin: Hogging computer time while my wife waits to check her emails.
The atonement: Cancel her email account.

The sin: Underestimating the intelligence of readers.
The atonement: Overestimate the intelligence of readers.

May we be written and sealed for a good year. I’ll resume blogging on Sunday.
