I am a newbie blogger and I think this is the perfect time to start a blog in these uncertain times. Blogging is helping me to do something fun and productive instead of sitting around watching the news and worrying about the state of the economy. If I make an extra income from my blog, that's a plus. I have just written a post titled 'The purpose of blogging' http://life-post.blogspot.com/2009/01/purpose-of-blogging_22.html Dan,

Just last week we launched our blog www.gossipsecreetaries.com. Even with the economy being the way it is, we felt that this was still the right time to go ahead with the launch of the blog. After all, there are still people out there that are always on the look out for alternative sources of information and networks. We agree with your discussion in point #2 - networking is a key way for us to stay ahead in this tough economy. Great post Dan. It is kind of interesting that I should come across this post today.

I especially like point #3 - it's so important to keep writing regardless if the economy is up or down. I also think that as pro bloggers, we need to use the economy in our favour and weave it in our post. I've been doing that for months now with my current blog and will continue doing the same with my soon to be launched nutrition blog! I agree, blogging and sharing with my readers also help release stress! Thanks Dan for a great post! Miss Gisele B. Dan,

I started blogging for my website months ago and it was the best thing I've done in a long time. I’m not sure where it will lead me, but I’m surely looking forward to it.

I was what could be considered a "reluctant blogger" until my friends approached me with the idea of creating our own blog. We are actually having the fun of our lives with our blog, after all it is our own little world. And, since the launch of our blog, we have met a couple of new people and have had the opportunity to simply said what we want. Good bye stress.

I am a freelance writer by trade, and I partly started my blog as an outlet for my writing that was quicker and less frustrating than going the traditional publishing route. As another commenter said, the satisfaction I get from blogging and interacting with readers is huge, and not something I could have anticipated.
