No trump for Trump (or <a href="http://kristinelowe.blogs.com/kristine_lowe/2006/12/vip_blogging.html">VIP blogging</a> chapter xx)

Donald Trump may be a talented man, but he has yet to find his 'inner blogger'. In the recent spat between the property tycoon and chatshow host Rosie O'Donnell, Trump has spent a lot of time slagging off O'Donnell in TV interviews, whereas she, smart girl, is armed with a blog. A pretty good blog, according to Mark Cuban, who, appalled by the standard of Trump's blog, has taken it upon himself to educate him in the ABC of blogging (via Jackie Danicki):

Donald, your blog sucks. Its actually pretty embarrasing. First of all, rule number one of blogging Donald is that you are the one that is supposed to write the posts on the blog. Less than half the posts on the front page of the blog have your name as the author let alone are written by you . Blogs are supposed to be personal, not corporate Donald.... Here is my advice T the C. Move your blog to a unique URL. Write something personal. Explain to us why you don't like to shake hands. Explain to us why you think Rosie is fat, but you aren't. Explain to us the virtues of Trump Ice water. Why we should subscribe to the new Trump Magazine. Why we should buy Trump suits. Why we should buy Trump The Fragrance. Or better yet, you could explain why in the world you would put your name on some of these things.

Donald, let me just tell you that its a whole lot easier to say what's on your mind on YOUR blog than have to freak out and call every talk show in America ranting about Rosie. That is if your time is valuable.
