I have a personal blog [1] and am the editor and a regular contributor to a public policy blog [2]. I blog because: I love to write; I enjoy and learn a lot from the dialogue that blogging enables; I think regular writing exposed to the scrutiny of others makes me a better writer; I love to read what other people have written and want to contribute my share; I like knowing that something I wrote was valuable to someone else; I'm a bit narcissistic; it's a very effective method of structured procrastination [3]; and it has led to a few employment opportunities.
