Default Technically speaking--

--you've been blogging for years; what you do just wasn't called that then, and now the defintion is somewhat more technical and restrictive than I think it deserves to be.

Each of us who has a long web history on these boards and others like them actually has a "blog" of sorts. Set up your own website and post to it often, with room for commentary, and you meet the more restrictive definition. Still, Mrs. D, Rose, Silverlady, LizaJane, Wings, Cara (JCC), Brian, myself, and so many others have had the equivalent of blogs going for some time now--I suppose it would just be a matter of staking out your own domain and posting a lot of the current threads to it.

I am cognizant of the fact that operating the more "literal" kind of blog is very time-consuming--like the beast, it needs to be fed, and a lot of us are already feeding a lot of beasts (I regularly post on numerous boards, and regularly read at probably two dozen now, and I'm sure that's not an isolated occurrence). But considering the amount of vitamin/supplement info you've compiled, it would be good to have it all in one place, with the added safety of protection from board crashes. (I'm sure that's part of the reason Cara/Rose set up their websites.)
