Having created quite a few blogs, I’d like to think that I have a good system down for those essential first steps, and I hope it can be of use to you too. By following these you’ll get a good head start in the world of blogging and hopefully an influx of traffic to give you the motivation to carry on. If you’ve already started, think of this as a checklist as I’m sure there’s a few you haven’t done yet.

I have the July 2011 MacBook Air.  It is the fastest machine I have ever used…by a long shot.  But the 256GB drive is small for my wants (not needs), and lately I find myself regularly deleting content I would prefer to have available.  When the price is right, I’ll upgrade to a larger SSD and this article from Arstechnica is my first reference on the how-to.

From Arstechnica.com…

Apple launched updated MacBook Air models in October of 2010, featuring new, compact, and (originally) proprietary form-factor solid state drives (SSDs). The SSDs have so far only been available to OEMs directly from Toshiba, despite the fact that the SSD is the only user-replaceable part in the MacBook Air. It took a few months, but long-time Mac upgrade source Other World Computing stepped up to offer three upgrade options based on fast Sandforce controllers.
