Blogging about blogging is fascinating. There millions of angles you can cover. Starting from creating a blog, finding a great undiscovered niche, and writing high-quality content which is useful to everybody. Certainly there many advantages for individuals and corporations to blog, but there are also downsides and painful consequences when done wrong. There are dozens (hundreds) of web writers out there who offer tips and advice about blogging. Only a few offer real expertise and insights how to be a successful blogger, in my opinion.

Either way, the amount of metablogs and posts about blogging is overwhelming (Technorati currently lists over 340000 posts about blogging).

My picks can only scratch the surface. But here are this week’s 10 blog posts about blogging which I liked most:

Forty-eight million American adults have contributed some form of user-generated content on the Internet, it found. That’s 35 percent of Internet users. Of those adults who have posted content on the Web, 73 percent, or 31 million, have a broadband connection at home. “[The Web is] shifting now to user-generated content; it shows people engaging with the Internet in a number of different ways in their lives,” said John Horrigan, associate director of research at Pew Internet & American Life Project. “It shows that people are pretty interested in using the technology to put something of themselves on the Internet, not just pull down information from the Internet.”
