@ Jason
I am glad that you like it. Friends give prompt answers but if they are virtual online friends, having to wait is normal.

@ Ruchir
I guess we are in the same situation in terms of offline friends. My friends do have a blog but it is just about their personal life and they don't have the desire to move into problogging so.... :neutral:

Anyway, having a FAQ page is a great suggestion for those who are receiving tonnes of e-mails asking the same questions over and over again (certainly not me).

@ Sujoy
Yes, totally agreed. The best is to network around with bloggers within the same niche or with bloggers writing on blogging tips.

@ Working at Home Mom
Thanks. I am glad that it helps.

Excellent points highlighted here. I truly think, when it comes to seeking help or information for a specialized topic, its best to trust your good ol friend in the neighbourhood who know s about it. Google may have all of tht, but to get it first hand from someone who has experienced it, is totaly a level above it.
Thanks for the list. :razz:

Most offline connections are useful only if you are asking them about your blog's navigation. Most my friends don't even know what a blog is...

Doing anything by yourself through trial and error gives the best experience I would say. At least you come to know what things don't work and nothing beats the sense of success after trying so many times.

"Keep a log of problems and solutions"

Yep, that can a huge time saver. Funnily 99.999999% of the blogs in the world still don't have a FAQ page...And the most funny thing is that the A List bloggers keep complaining of email overload when I'm sure they're answering similar questions each day and yet they don't make an FAQ page...

I prefer posting my problem on forums rather than emailing bloggers. The response is much faster and you get good replies if you have a decent enough presence in the forum.

Nice list of resources. I honestly might turn to a friend who blogs, but never really thought to open up my questions to others. Great places to keep in mind. Thanks for the resource.
