Changes in the gun blogs
Sebastian looks at the changes and notices a lot more commercial venture blogs than amateur blogs (like you’re reading now). I guess I benefited from being an early adopter. This blog only became ‘commercial’ the day I realized that people would actually pay me money to paste code into a site I was going to run anyway. If I were to run a commercial blog, knowing what I know now, I did it exactly the wrong way.

I don’t know what would be the right way, but I for one think yours turned out just fine!

The commercial blogs all suck.

There are commercial blogs? I don’t think that I’ve ever seen one.

If it’s commercial, it’s really not a blog. It’s an online column, a daily, a weekly, a monthly, a circular or whatever, but it’s not a blog.
Blogs are written and published by individuals or groups, both of which own the site and aren’t on anyone’s payroll to “do a blog-like thing”.
While blogs (like this one) can surely accept and host advertising, such is not the core-purpose of the site.
Those other things out there ain’t blogs. This here site is a blog.
Damned good one, too.
