Should you really be blogging? Or are you just well trained “fluff girls”?

Posted by Kimberly Veautour on Apr 25, 2009 in Weblog |

What is a fluff girl?  Wiktionary states,

fluff girl (plural fluff girls)

  1. (porn industry) any of the women employed to stimulate the male actors before filming.”

Now that could sound slightly harsh, but is it truly?   Pablo Picasso said,  “Bad artists copy. Great artists steal. ”

This is even more prevalent in blogging and website content.  It seems everyone is an expert in their field, but what truly makes them an expert?    Do they have a proven track record that they freely publish?  Client referrals?  Continuing education and classes?   OR……….. do they just have an opinion?

Now being very opinionated myself, at times…    I  value opinions and great debate.  I even, recently,  had a relative disagree with me about my “Texas” blog.  It brought on great debate, debate that I believe this fine country of our was founded on, the very basis of our political system.  BUT if opinion is all you have, and you have to steal the rest to even know what you are talking about  because you either do not have the knowledge to write a purposeful blog, or you do not have the ability to do so with independent ideas,  then don’t bother.   The rest of us that do this faithfully can see right through it.

Now if you are forced to “steal” copy to sound impressive.. try reading this first, “Brian Clark, How to Steal Great Content Ideas.”

I mean I enjoy a good fluff girl.  Just talented enough to get us all off, but not talented enough to make it on their own or even make a difference.  Sound like anyone you know?  I can name a few…..

Do me a favor, here are my next few blog topics.

Twitter and MLB

Media and “hot” words through the generations

Blackberry addicts and Social media Applications

Disney and Florida Vacation Review

Go copy someone’s blogs, articles and news reports… post it with a bunch of links and rewrite the parts you want to “steal”, and send it to me.  Thus saving me the trouble of fully researching them, learning everything I can about the topic, studying so that if I am EVER asked a question on the fly in public I am fully informed and can answer with out sounding like an idiot… and I can just copy yours :-)
