      What does it mean to “blog on blogs”? If by this, you mean I write I blog responses to comments and/or blogs, I would say “yes, I do take the blogging industry seriously”. But for the most part, I usually write a blog when a comment would take too long to explain a position I hold in contradiction with another blogger. Blogs are meant for discussing things and viewing other people’s opinions.
