But honestly for the long term, the reason should be to bring more value to your users. This will form a community around your blog and a strong reader base while you will establish authority as an expert in the niche. The point is to provide new and rich content to your visitors. And once you've decided on that keep a blog journal. It could be as simple and portable - a plain paper which you can later tuck in and maintain as a file.

I shamelessly pinged Daren Rowse on Google Talk when he was showing Busy and asked him this question. But I'm worried just like any other Adsense Publisher would be. I don't have an answer to the question but would like to hear what you have to say about it. Check out the following links if you want to read and find out for yourself.

OpenID is a shared identity service which allows users to use the same credentials to logon to any site supporting OpenID. Gone are the days when you had to fill in your first name and last name and email and pin and beat the captchas. Welcome to the new world of identity management. You have a single username and a single password so you needn't remember tens of those. But how do you get one?
OpenID service is provided by various providers. Yahoo, MyOpenID, LiveJournal being some of the better known. You register on any one of these providers once and for all. Next time you visit a site that supports OpenID, you can use the same userid and password to log in. OpenID is getting popular so much so that there are many CMS which can use the OpenID authentication natively or with a plugin and save you a lot of frustration. This goes for many Wordpress and Drupal and other blogs and forums. So if you want to get the ability to use a single username and password and comment on an OpenID supporting site you are in for a treat.
