Last night I listened to TwitCastRadio with Warren Whitlock and Deborah Micek, the inspiring authors of the Twitter Handbook.
On yesterday’s segment, they interviewed John Atkinson of PimpMyNews. It took me a second to really get the business idea of talking blogs, and then when I did, it hit me like a train. PimpMyNews offers your favorite blogs in an audio form. No, not just podcasts, not just the blogs with audio or video blogging, but PimpMyNews translates the written text to an audio form. And that’s not all, but PimpMyNews converts the audio to MP3 files, which you can listen with any MP3 player, or from your iPod, iPhone or from your computer.
So let’s get this straight: I could start exercising, and listen to my blog feed while on treadmill? Yes!
You can take your favorite blogs anywhere with you. You thought just reading the blogs from your phone was cool – think of listening your blogs while you drive the car, cook dinner, run, exercise, walk your dog… The possibilities are endless.
PimpMyNews is one of the new sites and applications absolutely revolutionizing the blogosphere. And among all the cool guys, trendsetters and early adopters, is listed also my little blog called Skimbaco Lifestyle. My blog is listed under Lifestyle and Mommy Blogs. It is pretty lonely in that category. In fact, my blog is so far the only blog listed under Mommy Blogs (talk about being an early adopter on my niche!).
Get my news now pimped, and join PimpMyNew today and have your blog listed there!

Your blog ROCKS. Why don’t you have more comments? I just LOVE your blog and the accent I can hear when I read you. Just wonderful. ANYWAY!!! Enough from your stalker fan club.
HOW DO I SUBMIT MY BLOG TO PIMP MY BLOG? I tried emailing them, but nothing. Nada. John Atkinson is following me on twitter though.
