Lorelle,

Thanks for the questions. I’m a professional voiceover guy and my blog is about my professional passion: voiceover work. I too use WordPress, which I find very easy to use. Though, as a non-programmer, I’m saddened that my favorite theme was broken by the upgrade to 2.1. (Tiga can’t handle the new way of dealing with categories and links.)

Be well,
Bob

I think that a blog is fun because if nothing else you’ll one day be able to read back on what you wrote.

Yes. I think my blog provides snippets or the pieces (family man, geek, etc.) of my life not usually too deep, but enough to get a sense of who I am.

I’d have to say yes. I’m a cigar enthusiast and was tired of reading cigar magazines giving high ratings to cigars just because the maker was a major sponsor of the magazine. I wanted some place to go for people to get an honest opinion, from a regular cigar smoker’s point of view and not reviews filled with fluff.

I consider myself an Internet entrepreneur, working with technology – especially the Internet – to help small businesses take advantage of some of the really cool stuff “out there.” I am a self-confessed Geek, a Conservative, and a wide-eyed Taoist at heart, absolutely fascinated with most everything. There’s very little I don’t find interesting, and I use my blog to comment on stuff as it passes into my purview. I also love to write, and blogging provides the outlet I find exhiliarating and personally fulfilling.

I think I am who I blog – what you see in my pages is me.

Lorelle, great to read you here on Blog Herald. I am glad I will get read more from you :-)

I blog as a software developer. When it started the aim was about discussing my ideas, but blog has done much more than that for me. It has helped me learn software, helped me learn express myself better and also introduced me to a lot of ethics of behavior.

I would say I am who I blog, though both – my blogging and who I am is evolving with every single post. However the blog is limited to the topic of software development.

I am a university instructor, and I started blogging to make the info-flow easier with my students – I posted them occasional extra stuff, links of interest, etc. I was on a bloghost (which you know very well, btw :) ), liked it, but wanted to produce something more personal, so I got a domain for myself. By now, I’ve switched to my mother tongue, post on everything that is interesting to me, so it’s not a “professional” blog anymore. Although students will still find their info – that didn’t change.

I think I am who I blog (poor Descartes…) – but to assert this, I needed the change!

Great question Lorelle … the answer is “Yes — but another side of me that some people don’t often see.” I’m a 3rd year resident in Internal Medicine, but I find that blogging tweaks another side of my brain that needs tweaking and tickling from time to time.

To be honest, I’m not sure if its really possible to NOT be who you blog — if you write long enough they truly become one and the same.

Cheers
