Hello,

Thanks to Ross, I finally set up the blog.

Although this is kinda “official” BlogJet's blog, I'll be writing not only about my software, but also about blogosphere,  marketing, etc. (you can see almost full topics list at the left pane).

Feel free to leave your comments (I always like to hear from you!), ping my posts and discuss this blog in BlogJet Forums.
