These are good tips. I try to actually follow these very things, though admitedly, I probably do not do much research. I wait till an idea so so strong that I can see what I want to write forms in my head, then I put it to post. Sometimes, a post will sparks a response that I wish to write a post about and I will rant it out, so to speak. I would consider my posts to be some things I know about, but are likely my opinion about a subject, based on the experiences from my life. Thanks for the tips.

Of course sharing opinion is very important! I did not put that into this article, but there are some posts that are mean to make people share theri opinions, talk to each others, share ideas!
