    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!

    Ok, well I decided to dip my toe in the water first by going with a free blog site. I have a few articles posted up now and it would be nice to get some feedback (and maybe my first followers) from you guys. I really do value your opinions and look forward to any feedback on my efforts so far.

    If you are willing to manage a webpage/blog, there are lots to consider.

    You need enough content to last, well, indefinitely.

    Factor in Google ad credit, or you probably won't get much traffic. I have started several sites and almost never saw anyone look at them. Google AdSense is expensive. Could be like 50c per click if you want a decent ranking in results.

    The time it will take to start up the site and make sure it is running smoothly. This will take quite an amount of time. Are you ready to dedicate your upcoming weekend to get it up and running?

    Design of the site. You will want a personal template to use on your site. This will require someone savvy in graphics to make one (maybe you, maybe not).

    Anyways, I like the quick banner. However, as a GFX artist here, I think the rest of the banner needs a little more action in it. Maybe a fractal or so.

    I would gladly check out the site because I have a bit of interest in the environment. Not an extreme one, just enough to read a page about it.

    I hope you go through with this. You have support obviously. Good Luck!

    I am really enjoying the experience so far and blogspot is pretty easy to work with and has a lot of attachments and support services. It's only been a few days since I got started and I think the page is starting to look pretty good and functional already.
