William Safire on blogenomics:

The prospect of profit will bring bloggers in from the meanstream to the mainstream center of comment and local news coverage.

Works for me! Works for the mainstream, too.

I’m not quitting my day job just yet, though.

It’ll be interesting. They obviously will know that lots of bloggers will be watching their every word and action. Will that keep them from letting fame and fortune go to their heads. We’ll see.

i sincerely hope not. The absence of large carrots keep blogging sincere and free of hidden agendas.
God forbid it should become like the MSM.
Charles of LGF has recently well covered this topic in relation to the KOS.
Lets face it 99% of MSM journalism is about keeping your job.

Davo makes a valid point, however it would be good if there revenue streams that at least allowed us to pay for the cost of hosting.
The ultimate irony of blogging is that you can really suffer from you success. Increased hits means increased bandwidth means more cost.
