Blogging

Fox's personal blog covers a wide range of topics, focusing mainly on technology, her mobile lifestyle, and search engine optimization from a personal perspective, in contrast to the Google Webmaster Central blog, where she wrote in an official capacity. In addition, a common topic on the blog is the tenuous relationship she has with her BlackBerry.
