What topics do *you* want to see?

We’re close to topic #100 and we’ve been remiss – One intention we’ve had at the bottom of our hearts was to build a community around blogging and developing ideas – its been too one way so far.

To change this, we want to post topics that come from you – what topics do you want to see? Leave ’em in the comments.

I know some of you have complained in the past about how lame some of our topics have been and the shameful anti-puppy bias we have at times expressed – here’s your chance to show us what you’ve got.

Topics we pick will include a link to your blog in our post! More traffic for you.

  7. Why do you think our society is the way it is? Why do people judge someone long before they know that person, or why is it so hard for people to except those who are different and things that are strange?

  15. My blog doesn’t have a specific topic, because I figured that would just cut me out entirely. But as someone who was heavily involved in politics for the past 3 years its hard to sound neutral sometimes. How do we combat that issue?
    Specially when it comes to comments. One thing you never want to do is to turn your readers away.

  21. Success isn’t just getting the rewards of what you’ve worked for. It is how you got those rewards.
    The true measure of success? It’s that sweet smile on your face as you look back to the hard times that you had to go through just to be where you are now.

  23. I heard this on the radio. It is a time of war. The Nazis are going from place to placing looking for people. There are a group of people hiding in a house. One woman has a baby who is sick. The baby coughs a lot. The people can hear the footsteps of the Nazis nearby. The woman with the baby is afraid they’ll be heard if the baby coughs. The woman is told to keep the baby quiet, or they’ll be found. Would you cover the baby’s mouth? The baby won’t be able to breath and might die. This is based on true stories. I know what I would do. What would you do?
