Well it's quite a good week to be focusing on one of my favorite subjects – promoting professional geekery, the idea that people can (and in many cases) should turn what they love into a career. It's "Speak Out With Your Geek Out" and let me focus on #4: Starting The Damn Blog.
Why not just Starting The Blog? Because you (and others) have thought about a blog so often that it's not just "the blog I want to start" it's "the damn blog I should get to."
So, start it.

I've been blogging here for going on three years (man, has it been that long?) and it's been been pretty informative. So, since I'm in a bit of a nostalgic mood as the third anniversary approaches, I wanted to share some of my insights on blogging with my fellow progeeks.
I often advise people to try blogging – sure it's not for everyone, but I find it's very useful to pursue, because if it is for you, you'll gain a lot of benefits. So, don't take this as pressuring you towards blogging, but I want to share an interesting professional benefit about blogging as I do–on careers and so forth.
One of the benefits of blogging is that you learn something twice.
