[The Blog Blog\*](http://www.theblogblog.com/2005/01/their-blog-or-mine.html?ref=onemanandhisblog.com):

> For the all the false hype about the blog world vs the mainstream media world, the truth is that many bloggers are former journalists.

Former? Worrying.

> And an increasing number of them are current journalists who have built up large following for their personal blogs.

Ok, better. That’s 50% true. Anyone know where I can find a large following?

> If you have a blog that attracts several hundred-thousand readers a month, you will be able to make a lot more on your blog than you are making as an employee of the average publication. Stay tuned. It will happen.

Ah, so if I boost my traffic from a few thousand readers a month to a hundred times that, I’ll be rolling in it? On the whole, I think I’ll be sat at desk heads at the magazine on Monday morning… Still, it’s a lovely dream.
