What advice do you have for a first time blogger?
teej: On having an engaging blog:1. Be topical.  The best blogs in my feed reader stick to broad-ish topics I'm interested in.  i.e. Rails, Package Design, App Reviews.2. Be consistent (frequency).  This is simple to understand, difficult to execute.  Find a schedule and stick to it.3.  Be consistent (structure).  Once you've found a blogging style that suits you, stick to 1-2 styles (perhaps a short-form and a long-form).  37signals SvN lost it's spot in my feed reader for mixing snippets, quotes, long insights, and code-heavy posts together.4. Quality over quantity.  The blogs I respect the most are the ones who have thought out, relevant posts - even if they only come once a month.On building a community:- Look to see what Seth Godin & Tim Ferris have done to engage their blog readers beyond the comments.- Remember that blogging is still very much a broadcast medium.  Don't expect more than 1% of your readers to engage you on any particular level.
