Well I was offered a job blogging anyhow! But i can't put in 8 hours a day to blog right now, so it won't work. They do report on the news here that some people are getting fired from what they've posted online, so I imagine that online blogs can help you get hired too!

Those who know very little about it can often look down on it..but bloggers who do a lot of the coding and behind the scenes work really do learn a lot from it. I went about trying to learn some Photoshop and some basic code with my blog and during the quiet periods of Uni I like to keep playing around with things so I have definitely learned a lot. I just need to learn a hell of a lot more ;) I agree with Guy about the stereotype that can be attached from some employers about blogging.
