In addition to my “Standard Work” for creating the blog, there are some good practices to share as a blog reader. Here's one.
If you're interested in following just a particular topic and having email updates sent to you, follow this process:
- Go to a “label” specific page, such as https://www.leanblog.org/search/label/Healthcare
- Labels are found at the bottom of some posts and clicking on a label will bring up all posts that have that label
![]()
Use the Blogarithm service to “watch” the page (click on photo for larger view)
- Blogarithm will email you updates whenever JUST the healthcare topic is updated, for example
You can also use Blogarithm to track the main page at www.leanblog.org, or use an RSS to subscribe.
Have any other “power user” tips to share?
