Sajhakoraja brings up some interesting points which need to be considered seriously. Then again, blogging is such a new territory that there are no right answers in advance.

BTW, here's a blog that has this podcast of a conversation with a Nobel Prize winning economiist and an influential Judge (i.e. Becker and Posner) as to why these two super-busy choose to spend their time blogging together. - http://radioeconomics.com/2005/07/interview-gary-s-becker-and-richard.html oohi ashu
