It's funny how - especially with my other site - I found myself struggling with the question "is this really what its supposed to be" before realising that trying to make it "fit" into a set or particular model takes all the fun out of it, and I would think takes away the enjoyment of others in visiting.

I'm glad that you didn't follow the advice to give up on blogging because it's become co-opted by corporate and mainstream interest.
