 <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://lorelle.wordpress.com/&quot;&gt;Lorelle at Wordpress&lt;/a&gt; published &lt;a href=&quot;http://lorelle.wordpress.com/2007/08/06/bringing-personal-blogging-to-light/&quot;&gt;a series of posts recently on Personal Blogging&lt;/a&gt;, by guest blogger &lt;a href=&quot;http://kamigoroshi.net/&quot;&gt;Edrei Zahari&lt;/a&gt;. (You&#039;ll find links to the whole series at the bottom of each post; don&#039;t neglect the comments.) In response, &lt;a href=&quot;http://rileycentral.net/wordpress/2007/08/04/the-online-diary-history-project-those-who-do-not-study-history-are/&quot;&gt;Damien Riley&lt;/a&gt; confesses that &lt;i&gt;&quot;Personal blogging has become my fixation,&quot;&lt;/i&gt; and points to &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.diaryhistoryproject.com/&quot;&gt;The Online Diary History Project&lt;/a&gt; for some context.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I was pleased to see these, as I think this is a large -- and largely overlooked -- segment of the blogging community. Most of the writing about blogging is aimed at the probloggers -- that is, business bloggers (or meta-bloggers) who are blogging for money. Most of the mainstream media attention goes to political bloggers, who blog about power, and may make a bit of money while they do so (or not.)&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;i&gt;Problogger&lt;/i&gt; seems a completely appropriate name for these folks; a melding of &lt;i&gt;professional&lt;/i&gt; and &lt;i&gt;blogger&lt;/i&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;
