A few years ago when I started my blog (2007) blogging was totally hot and everyone was doing it.
Now I am wondering who is still keeping a blog and posts regularly? I am changing my blog and I am in for some new inspirational blogs to watch. I have a little feeling that Facebook is taking over control here! :p

So, show me your blogs! And make me happy..... :D

My blog is here (http://andreagourley.blogspot.co.uk/) - I post pretty regularly and it is mainly crafty stuff with a little bit of my doggie and random stuff thrown in for good measure

I've always wanted to do a blog, but never had the guts. It's a lot of work I am sure and a lot of yourself out there for the world to see.

I am a blogger before i became a designer and I used to earn from my blogs but now I only use mine for business and yes, I keep it up to date. I personally designed it too - http://myedeleon.com

Great blog Andrea. Your cards are absolutely amazing. I'm so glad Leontine asked about blogs today. :)

I've been blogging regularly since 2007. I love it!!!

I blog mostly about family and faith, but I've also started posting scrapbook pages as well.

I've gone to the Blissdom blogging conference in Nasheville twice and I really love it! I've made lots of online friends through blogging and I'm really love the way it complements my other obsession...digi scrapping!

Anyway, here's my blog: DailyDwelling (http://dailydwelling.com)

I designed my blog myself as well. I love all that geeky stuff :).

Well I know you already know about my blog :D but for anyone that doesn't you can find it here:

http://www.nettiodesigns.com/

I do lots of scrapbooking related posts with tips & tricks, tutorials, projects, my adventures & misadventures in design, etc. It's fun times. :D There's also a free template available there for any of my fellow map lovers.

I've been blogging since Dec. 2005, with some huge breaks. ;) One of my goals for this year was to blog once a week, but I haven't stuck to that - it's more like twice a month. I blog about lots of stuff, but not that much about scrapbooking, more about my life. My blog is called My Boys Don't Eat Pasta and link is in my siggy. :)

We used to have a blog thread every week, but it faded away. And I need to start using a blog reader so I don't miss anything!

I've been blogging since 2005 or so. I've been slacking the past 6 weeks because I have to ration my computer time but I still blog a couple times a week or so.

Hahaha, I've been blogging IRregularly since 2004! This year I had grand plans of getting into a semiegular schedule, but work has been crazy hectic. I have not abandoned it though :) I've been greatly inspired by Peppermint (One Little Bird) and Liz's (Paislee Press) blogs.

These days though, for day-to-day updates I rely on my tumblr: http://mrshobbes.tumblr.com

I started blogging in 2005, I think... before my son was born. I had a blog just for my daughter and one for our family. Then my boy came along and I added a 3rd blog for him, and a 4th for my scrapbook layouts... then I got overwhelmed. I have a blog for my design business that hasn't been touched in a while and a new blog that I've been working on. None have been updated recently though.

Aww, thanks, that's what I was aiming for but it's always hard to know how it really comes across. :D

I'm trying to get back into it... I have two blogs... I'll link to them when I'm back at my computer... I have huge breaks once in awhile because life just gets crazy... This is my first year homeschooling and that has taken up a bunch of time and blogging went out the door... I'm trying to figure out a way to make my scrapping blog more known and inspirational without taking too much of my time which I don't really have... I got kinda burned out on it because I don't think people read it or even look at it and I think more are just on Facebook, so I'm considering starting a FB page for my blog... I'll be honest in that I think FB is where it's at anymore... I never check google reader because I just don't have time anymore... but I do believe blogging plays a big role still otherwise you wouldn't have Pinterest... and I find I enjoy Pinterest more than google reader because I can find specifically what I want to read about instead of scrolling through 100s of blogs to find something that might interest me... basically Pinterest does all the hard work for me LOL

I am working to get back in to it, now that my schedule is lighter! I really do love blogging (when it's not work related--LOL!)

I updated mine often when we lived in Alaska. More exciting, further away from family. Now I rarely do. Michigan isn't exciting. LOL!

I now have 2 blogs. One personal and the other is a book blog. I started posting some of my book reviews on my personal blog but wasn't thrilled with the idea of driving traffic there with my personal stuff there also, so I recently split them. I have lots of work to do to make my book blog pretty yet though.

My personal blog: http://3bubbas.blogspot.com/
Book blog: http://buried-in-books.blogspot.com/
