Yours is one of the few commentaries from the trenches! and good to point out that, if you've got to a point where you've managed to, as you say, "net" some "legitimate self-employment" you can say you've got some success. I've done that, and while I'm not living high on the hog and couldn't live in the Silicon Valley or NYC on what I make, for having built *something* from this blogging thing in the first place is pretty darned good.</p><p>Heck, I could have really disappointed my folks and pursued an acting career ;-)</p>Tish GrierMon, 07 Apr 2008 00:33:58 -0000http://mashable.com/2008/04/05/opining-about-blogging/#comment-5999839<p>Excellent post. It was a nice reminder as to why we blog. And a very welcome call to arms. To those of us who are able to translate it into a decent way to pay the bills - I raise my glass to you all.</p><p>Rick</p>RickSat, 05 Apr 2008 22:10:04 -0000http://mashable.com/2008/04/05/opining-about-blogging/#comment-5999838<p>koool stuff!</p>huxleyboyceSat, 05 Apr 2008 21:40:20 -0000
