ONE OF THE TIPPING POINTS that led me to embrace blogging with passion is this book by Hugh Hewitt.
Hewitt is an American†radio†talk show†host, author and†blogger. †He is what is known as a pundit – a political commentator. †He is also a die hard Republican (I wonder what he has to say with Obama’s win over McCain).
I†did not particularly like the way Hewitt writes, or at least the way he wrote “BLOG.” †I p
ersonally felt that he overdid his narrative of how he and other Republican bloggers were so instrumental in changing the campaign tide in favor of George W. Bush by exposing John Kerry‘s faked Vietnam War exploits. †I understood what he was trying to say: †that blogging is emerging as a very powerful tool to disseminate information vis-a-vis traditional media, powerful enough to influence the result of a presidential election in no less than the US of A. †Still, he could have driven that point in one or two chapters instead of three quarters of the book (okay, maybe just three fifths) and possibly with better result.
Be that as it may, the book convinced me enough that blogging is going to be big. †Really BIG! †Hewitt also presented a lot of interesting, compelling, and very useful statistics about blogging†(towards the end of the book).
A year since reading ” BLOG”and here I am, a certified blog addict. †Maybe you shouldn’t read the book, or else suffer my fate. †But then again, blogging is cool and you will get to meet uber†cool dudes and dudettes in Blogosphere. †So come join the fun. 
Thanks the author!
