Yes. Because I decided that I don't have to be "a blogger." To elucidate: I like the idea of having readers and having an audience, but the standard format of most blogs frustrated me. I realized that what I want is to put up good writing and good content. Most blogs stick to a targeted audience in the hope of garnering recurring readership, and will try to do this whether or not they have anything worthwhile to say. I don't want to be an "expert," and have no interest in doing "regular updates" or "news." That makes blogging a chore.
But I can make a very comprehensive, "perennial" blog post on some topic. And rather than setting out to stick to the one topic, I can just let it get filtered by other sites. The resulting site essentially describes all my best work.
