Is the Guardian just vanity publishing?

How do people find time to blog? Mind you I imagine come summer I'll get back into the swing of it again.

I think these comments are pretty OTM:

GW: ...I get a bit pissed off when I feel as if I've got some kind of duty to a "readership" to keep things up to date. I keep saying to myself that I'll update it every day but I never do. That makes it feel like a job or something. I like the fact that people can read what I write and if they like it that's a real plus, but if my readership was two people I couldn't care less.

SP: "Slightly addictive"? It is more than just slightly addictive. But you're right about "duty to a readership". It kind of screwed things up for me after "the readership" started expecting certain things from the blog. "You have to tell us what is going on; you are my main source of information." Habibi, it is only tiny insignificant me, don't put "that" on my shoulders. It scares me.

Mind you, if the sales figures for the book of CoM amount to just two people then I think I WOULD care!

good luck, marcello.

I guess I have made entries that would qualify as 'blog' entries, on here.

But I do not, on my own website, as:
1) No-one would read them
2) That's it.

If I did not update a blog, the website would look very 'old'. There are no dates as such there, jst nice pictures and some text.
