From Web Dating to Fame

The New York Times: Reader, I Dated Him.
From Web dating to fame. Okay this topic is very interesting. It is unbelievable, but believeable at the same time that a woman goes famous for writng daily about her love life and personal life experiences. This woman in her late 20s has a world wide fan base through the internet on everything going on in her life. She is so popular that she has ranked the top 1 spot of all bloggers. She has thousands of viewers all over the world and a record over 2, ooo rank of inbound links . She does more than write she also includes photos of everyday things she does and her friends she's with. People love her and are daily readers to her bloggs. Some also say she is an inspiration to them and people can relate to her. Her blogging was so huge and widely viewed that she expanded from the web to TV and got a deal and published a book memior called "Straight Up and Dirty" and NBC gave her a comedy serious with it. Then later a second book was in the works. This woman from what I have read gives you her ups and downs of her life and being single and other things in between. She gets prays on the street when shes out and about. I'm sure that she didnt think her personal blogging experience would lead to fame. This kinda thing doesn't happen to everyone. It is amazing how someone that puts their life out their and shares with the world about their web dating experiences among other things, goes famous.
