A friend of mine just passed along the content for her 'About' page and this article is helping my feedback to her. At first, I thought it was too long and it definitely needs to be more concise. Another important point that I took from this post is, 'make it interesting' and/or 'funny.' This is valuable information.

Thanks to you for the tips in writing an about me page.... I got you not from blog frog (though I have an account) but from a blog who wrote and linked this page. Ain't that great!? You were able to help a lot thru this. When I'm done with my about me page, I'm gonna write an entry and direct a link to this instruction. That's for giving a whole new inspiration in blogging.

I think the answer to your question simply depends on how you want to present information and what makes sense for your blog. When I wrote this post, I had just worked on a campaign where I needed to find good blogs in specific areas to take part in a marketing campaign. I was looking for very specific information and not finding it. I think it makes sense to keep a disclosure page with boring language separate from your snappy About page, but not everyone has a legalese disclosure page. Another tip for the About page: use bullets and shorter paragraph with sub-heads. If your info is scannable, people can find what they need faster. Jenn, you make a good point.
