So in my trolling of the blogosphere, I’ve come across two instances where bloggers have been able to evangelize blogging to their significant others, and they deserve a big round of applause. Shout outs of the week go to the following dudes:
Joel Oliveira, who got his girlfriend to launch her own blog: http://www.bitbythebeautybug.com/
Greg Yardley, who got his wife to launch her own blog: http://www.thefashionfaction.com/
They’re both filled with great, regular, passionate content on things I don’t quite know about — but they both deserve to be checked out, and if its your thing, subscribed to.
Now, if only I could get my own significant other to blog … ;)

Whoa. Tony. Wow, man thanks for the shout-out!
With regards to my girlfriend Sara’s passion she’s really taken that energy and enthusiasm and channeled it right through to her new website. It’s absolutely unreal how much she’s taken that proverbial bull by the horns.
It’s also quite a unique feeling to see your significant other get so AMPED about this new medium – a combination of pride and inspiration. I’m extremely proud of her, no matter how long it goes, or how “big” her site gets.
thanks once again!
(oh, and dag, I should probably update my own site too!)
Tony,
Its funny I came across this now. I recently started a little blog called A Husbands View (http://www.ahusbandsview.com). A view of all things from a husbands and a fathers viewpoint. At first I wanted to just keep it mens, but I thought maybe it would be cool to get the other side of the story so to speak. I have been trying to get my wife to write a section for Mommies. She spends a lot of time on Mommy Blogs and in forums, so I thought she would enjoy it, but she hasnt come around yet. Maybe soon though.
Jimmy — thanks for popping on by!
Might I point you towards thezeroboss.com? Its another great “daddy/husband” blog.
Hang in there … let us know how it turns out ;)
cheers

Joel — always a pleasure to pimp for my readers (as long as its worthwhile). Let us know how bitbythebeautybug.com turns out! ;)
Joel — might I add, you have one magnificent beard. :D
(I have beard envy)
