Re: What Type of Blogger Am I?

Here's the thing: a blog is *just a tool*

Say that a few times, slowly.

Now, isn't it like saying "you have a hammer, what kind of carpenter are you?"

Further, this becomes more complicated when you take into account that an individual blogger can have more than one blog and represent themselves differently - and write differently - on those different blogs. For example, what I write on my business blog is different in tone and language than what I write on my parenting / daddy blog.

Oh, and don't worry about the misunderstanding quote-wise. I'm not homeless, yet, but I play a homeless guy on TV. Wait, no I don't. Well, you get the idea. :-)

Well said, Eric! Life's about balance, and part of that balance is being able to see the global good, the overall welfare, not just your pocketbook.

... and, of course, there's great irony in the fact that on my blog your comment showed up immediately, but on your blog, my comment is greeted with the message "Your comment is awaiting moderation."

Um, I'm not sure what my cardinal sin was here, but is it simply that I didn't come to your blog and leave a comment responding to your thoughts, Jake? And for that you are painting me as some sort of evil "celebrity" and the purveyor of hypocrisy? Gadzooks, I can't imagine something farther from the truth...

And here I thought you were going to have some brilliant alliteration, Micah. Hmmm... Rocky Robot Roosters Roust Rebellious Rednecks and Rambunctious 'Repreneurs to Rally at Rockin' TechCocktail?
