Blogging - Day 1 Blogging? Are blogs a thing anymore? Does it matter if they are? Especially when my purpose in blogging is for personal growth, not to grow a six-figure income from online writing. Are six-figure incomes a thing anymore? Why would I want to blog about technology when there are thousands of well-established online platforms that are already covering this exact sector? Because I am a firm believer in the value of writing to learn.
