7 Ways to Blog Without Writing

Stanford Smith has some great ideas on produce blog content:

WordPress rocks because it makes it point-and-click easy to share your content – any content. The default content type is text-based but you can do much more.

You can:

  1. Record yourself talking about a subject and upload the audio.
  2. Video record yourself discussing your topic and upload the video
  3. Publish illustrations, graphics, and captioned photos. Use a photo gallery template to show off your work.
  4. Use Google Hangouts to record an interview and link to it from your blog.
  5. Use Storify to create curated stories taken from blog posts, tweets and links
  6. Record your screen with Screenflow (Mac) or Camtasia (PC)  while you demonstrate software, teach a skill, or walk through a presentation. Upload your content to your blog, Slideshare,Scribd, and YouTube.
  7. Have someone interview you and upload the recording. This technique works well if you get tongue-tied talking to a camera.

The point is that there are many ways to create interesting content without writing. Find what you feel the most comfortable with and go with it. Focus on your preferred content creation method until you master it.
