Setting up a blog site will take a bit of work. You will need to figure out how you will go about building the site. You will need to answer questions such as where is the best place to buy a domain, where should you host the site, how much will the domain and hosting cost. You will want to know what functionality your host provides. You want to know whether you will use a specific blogging platform (software or hosted, including wordpress, wordpress.com, blogger, livejournal, etc) or just put the content up by hand. There will be other things you may want to address.
Along with those you will want to address the need to promote your blog site in order to make it a feasible project. Some ways you would do this is through social networking services such as facebook and twitter. Advertising may cost a bit of money and you may not want to spend more money on that right away. You might also want to cross promote with others who blog about similar topics, and possibly create a community around your blog also to help retain users (you might want to wait to have a nice userbase before starting a forum or anything though)
If you would like any help feel free to contact me, also there are may other people here on the forums who would be willing to lend a hand.
Additionally, the topics that you said you are likely to cover have been an interest to me for a while now and I would be interested in reading your blog if/when you get it up and running!
