		<description>[...] Drew Meyers asks is blogs serve the same purpose as TV, Seeking Alpha suggests the same idea going through my head.  Heck, even the recording industry is figuring it out,.  How long will it be before podcasts and video blog episodes are in the realm of hours not minutes (or say 30 mins for a &quot;show&quot;) with programming and advertisements interspersed?  I don&#039;t think it&#039;s very long at all.  I could see myself doing a &quot;show&quot; that was part news, part opinion, part music, part interviews.  Maybe once a day, say a 45 min show.  Sure it would take time to get the technology ready here in my office to do it right, but the rest, well the rest is falling into place.

Sorry your comment got stuck in moderation and I just saw it. While I don&#039;t use the sites you mentioned, they seem to focus on one industry. I&#039;m thinking of more of a &quot;hub&quot; to find relevant blogs in a variety of categories.</description>

I was more gearing my idea towards bloggers that want their blogs included (probloggers as you call them). A key to any successful venture (IMO) is user control. I wouldn&#039;t favor ratings blogs that don&#039;t opt-in. 

Teresa-
I tend to agree with you - but my point is that it takes a lot of time to find all the good blogs within a category you&#039;re interested in. Not everyone is willing to devote the time to blogs that you or I do. It&#039;s taken me months to find all the good real estate blogs -- and I STILL haven&#039;t found them all!

Pat-
Hopefully they do. I know Eric and Scott have some cool stuff up their sleeve in 2007.</description>

		<description>MyBlogLog could incorporate just what you&#039;re talking about by adding a &quot;taglist&quot; section for each blog. The user then can search across the tag for the most &quot;popular&quot; sites based on # of community members, which acts like a &quot;page rank&quot; based on user&#039;s &quot;links&quot; to the blog.</description>

		<description>I&#039;m not sure about statistics, what I remember reading somewhere that 90% are personal blogs. I don&#039;t think all people want their blog to be reviewed. Perhaps those who want could sign up and that&#039;s they&#039;ll review. Can you imagine someone will come into your blog and say things he/she deemed is right?  Who the hell is this person anyway to talk about something perhaps with no knowledge why the blog author wrote it. For some it&#039;s mundane, for others its worth something. Now that&#039;s hard to quantify and for sure something that could fan intrigues controversies or blog war [?]. :)

On the other hand, probloggers could be in this category. Those who blog for money. Perhaps they&#039;ll be interested if someones reviews their blog. The better the review, the more popular it becomes and perhaps more blogging money to come in. Google ranking they say on the other hand is all about popularity. So is it suffice to say they&#039;re really great blogs content wise or they&#039;re popular because of the links?</description>
