On Frozen Blog (hockey)

REVIEWED BY: Ms. Cairo

MY RECOMMENDATION: Yes

AMAZON SUBSCRIPTION LINK: On Frozen Blog

WEB ADDRESS: http://www.onfrozenblog.com/

BLOG DESCRIPTION: On Frozen Blog is focused on the Washington Capitals of the National Hockey League, their prospects, and hockey in general.

MY REVIEW: I'd meant to review this blog a long time ago, when the season was still going on. Now that the season is over (at least I think it is, truth to tell I don't follow hockey) I'm going to review it anyway. I'll retro review it when the hockey season starts again.

Hockey fans will enjoy this blog - the author writes well and covers the games in great detail. I assume that the off-season will be active as well, as teams trade their players, and perhaps draft players from college...or however they get them!

BLOG DESCRIPTION: First hand ski touring and climbing reports from Rainier, Crystal and points east

MY REVIEW: This was a young blog, only 17 posts in 2009, and one in January. It could have been interesting, but perhaps the author had unrealistic expectations on how long it would take to build up a readership. Unless an author is very lucky, it takes at least three months for a blog to pick up a regular readership, and that only after posting at least three times a week during each week of those three months.

I'll keep an eye on it...if the author ever revives it, I'll let you know.
