Meg calls for professional bloggers:

What I propose is slightly different: make it a commercial endeavor and hire an experienced blogger. Engage someone who's already proven they can filter, condense, and write. Work with someone who can blog day in and day out for more than a month or two. The idea here is to find an enthusiast, empower them, and fund them, not to dump blogging onto someone's day job, or it's not likely to succeed.

Think of what some of the best bloggers could do if they were financially able to do focused, full-time blogging? Pick a topic you're interested in, now imagine someone had 40 hours per week to cover everything related to that topic, and you get the idea.

How 'bout it? Anyone want to throw money at me to cover the environmentalism, privacy, writing, science fiction, health, fitness, memetics, improv, hypnosis, conspiracy, technology, Berkeley, science, magick, bicycling, vegetarian, recumbent, comics, philosophy, books, Palm, Perl, sustainability, politics, futurism, Buddhism, Taoism, organic, mind machine, nutrition, bodywork, alternative medicine, libertarian, Green, anarchist, and whatever the hell else I feel like at the moment beat? Y'know, with flexible hours and I get total editoral control.

I didn't think so. But what the hell — I've got all that already without the pay.
