Share Web 2.0

I was connected to twitter and i didn’t really used it and i decided to cancel my account, but now i get theses “getting started” messages from other people.

I want these web sites for my nephew who is at my house alot, and he loves to get on the computer. He is a smart little boy but, as we know practice never hurts. Helpme if you know of any good ones.

Can somebody seriously help and guide me to make my blog popular ? Is it possible if I tie up with newspaper to earn my livelihood through blogs.
