State of the blogger in 2009

The thing about blogging is that there are no rules. Of course, there are some things you must respect like having a good orthography and responding to your readers comments etc. but there are no rules about whether you should or not be objective or subjective; like a journalist. There are no rules about whether your blog should be with two-columns, three, four or completely black and if you want to write two sentences articles; you’re free.

You are your own publisher and you can say whatever you want. Your blog could create a motion expressing the protest of the people. Yes. Yes, really. You can write stuff like “I fuck you all, dickheads”, in another media, you couldn’t. You’d be fired the very next day. Your blog is your responsibility and you do whatever you want with it.
Still, I believe there are different types of bloggers.
I will take two articles. The first is ‘20 types of blog posts’ by the famous ProBlogger blog.
