I’ve been blogging for about 4 years now & the 1 question that I get asked a lot is:Â “How do I Build a Loyal Blog Following?” I don’t believe there is a specific formula, but there are some tools that you can put in place to help step up your game.

Bono did an op-ed piece in the weekend edition of the NY times. He recently visited the continent & was moving on the ground with Africa’s key power brokers. The piece summed up some of his observations during the trip.

Africa is a viable option for foreign direct investment (not just aid) and the World Cup in SA this summer will be the pivot point for the continent. My favorite line in this piece:
“Ghana needs support in the coming years, but in the not-too-distant future it can be giving aid, not receiving it; and you, Mr. Bono, can just go there on your holidays.†– Mo Ibrahim

Interesting piece in the NY Times about street artists in Venezuela using murals to express their political views. Critics panned these murals as propaganda art (due to government support & financing ) vs an opportunity for expression in the public space.
The images have sparked debate and dialogue, which I believe is the intent of any good piece of art. I’ve always believe if a piece of art does not elicit response from the viewer… it has been poorly executed. Check out the article.

Pick up the newest issue of Arise magazine & peep the piece I wrote about 88 Keys. 88 is in the process of creating his latest musical opus. Definitely an artist to keep on your radar in 2010. After the jump check his new video “True Feelings”. -!YG
